How to Sell Art: A Systematic Approach to Creating Relationships with Collectors and Closing the Sale Paperback – September 15, 2011

Hands down, this is the best book on the market for learning how to sell art very successfully and feel completely comfortable doing so. The author, a gallery owner himself, shows you what to say to a potential buyer, when to say it and how to say it. Many artists find talking about their work quite difficult, and coming up with words to move a would-be buyer toward the sale even more so. Jason Horejs solves those problems for even the most tongue tied artist or gallery sales person. The book offers a wealth of information on buyer psychology and art marketing and is truly the best resource I've ever come across for anyone attempting to sell their own or other's art.

Easy to read.

I ordered the Kindle version of How to Sell Art. It has proved to be an excellent handbook on the subject, particularly for artists, but also for art gallery workers. The author J Jason Horejs is the owner of an art gallery located in Scottsville, Arizona and his advice seems to be universally applicable - even here in South Africa. It lacks the illustrations which one expects to see in a book devoted to the subject of art but this is not a disadvantage as it is well written and easily conveys the essential information regarding the subject.

I've been in luxury sales my entire life...and was a little worried this book might be too "elementary" for my needs. In fact, the book provided massive amounts of useful, specific, professional advice that I've already told the author I found to be indispensable.If you're in the art business, you'd better get this book - because if the guy across the street from you is using it, you don't stand a chance.

I am a new artist and just started selling my art. I bought this book to learn more about the process. I liked this book, very informative and helpful to me, using the internet and local venues to sell art. I kept the book to refer back to as my art business grows.

It is clear that the writer is an expert in his field. He offers step-by-step instructions on how to approach, engage, and help his customers acquire art. His love of art and respect for his customers is paramount. Many helpful insights and confidence builders. Have already recommended it to my gallery rep!

I'm new to selling art. The tips on getting into a d working with Galleries were very helpful. Quick, easy and informative !

Comprehensive, practical and thoughtful compendium of Information for Artists and their assistants. Can highly recommend as a very readable book for artists. Would also make a very thoughtful gift for all your friend artists. A great companion to the author's online helpful expertise and guidance.

This is an excellent book about selling art. The author has many years of experience in the art gallery business. He is clearly passionate about art and about serving his customers. He shares his sales techniques, which are based in an attitude of helping customers instead of selling to them. This results in more sales in the long run because it puts the customer first and builds a respectful relationship with the customer. The book has links to video presentations that are also useful. If you are a gallery owner, sales person or you are an artist trying to sell your work, I would highly recommend reading this book and putting the sales strategies into practice.

Great book full of Very interesting and useful tips and great knowledge inside the world of a gallery and artists

A very basic and slightly dated book. Expected better.

One of the best books ever for an artist on how to sell your own artwork. I have read a lot of them that are out there! Jason directs this book mostly towards artists and then puts in a little something for gallery owners. Selling art is an art in itself and this book really shows the how and why of this process.

big writing and not enough content, but easy to read.
