Business Overview
Whether you’re the artist or someone elsehas created the original art, there is big money in art prints. Artprints are relatively inexpensive to have produced and can retail foras much as $1,000 for a popular piece. Once you have chosen the worksthat will be reproduced, you can begin to sell the art prints.
Set up asales kiosk in a mall on a busy weekend or rent a booth in ahigh-traffic flea market. You can also market the art prints tobusiness professionals for office decorations or to interior designersfor home decorations.
I talked to one gentleman who operated an artprint shop in an airport location. He told me that he was sellingbetween 75 and 100 prints per week to business travelers who weretaking the prints home as gifts. Assuming he only cleared $15 on eachprint after all expenses and taxes, he would still be earning more than$60,000 annually.
