gathering resources – Reprinted post by nancy bryant
Some of the resources you will need:
- web site – (how will you make your on-line presence?)
- accountant – (how do you plan to keep records and finances?)
- bank- (will you need a separate business checking account?)
- legal advise – (what will your business identity and structure be?)
- networking- (who will be your customers? how do you find them?)
- finance – (how will you support yourself while getting established?)
- costs and expenses- (what are your expenses?)
- pricing- (what will you need to charge to make a living?)
- business cards, brochures, etc. -(do it yourself or hire someone?)
- advertising – (how do you let the customers know you exist?)
- location – (even working from home you need studio space)
This is, of course, just a partial list of some of the research you must do in order to begin your art business. But it is a starting point.
