Uk Faa Members And Your Experience
I'm keen to hear how other UK based artists are finding sales on FAA. In particular:
* Are the majority of your sales to the US?
* Do you get many UK sales?
* If you get sales in the UK, is the postage an issue?
* Apart from wanting sales, what was your main motivator for joining the site?
For me, I can't actually answer on the sales bit, not had any yet. I joined last year, but have only really been putting effort to market my FAA presence since March this year. My main reason for joining was to have a quicker and cheaper way (for me) to produce prints in various sizes. I do own my own Epson R2400, and have some artist quality paper to print on. But the time and effort to print, far out weighs the return. However, what I didn't take in to account was the FAA postage! (lesson no1), especially to the UK, hence the question about sales in the US.
I still do sell my own prints from my site, but they are in aid of the Devon Wildlife Trust, so I have to have control over the printing of those.
Anyway, would still be nice to hear of any UK, in fact of any non-USA sellers. Of course you chaps from the US are more than welcome to comment :-)
Thanks in advance
