Hi folks,
I'm really trying to generate a few commissions lately - I'm finding it hard. I've started using Twitter, have built a Facebook page to promote my work, and although I have had a bit of interest it is all from friends of friends who expect something for free!
So my question is, has anyone tried posting leaflets through peoples doors, or to shops/local businesses? I'm thinking this might be a way of getting my work seen...I'm really keen to gain some work with portrait commissions and drawings of children. I get a lot of leaflets advertising window cleaning etc but never see leaflets promoting people's art work.
If anyone has any opinions on this I'd love to hear them!
Thanks,
Clare
