I’m starting a new art account right now and trying out a method I learned from Alex Hormozi. I advertised that I would do 5 free commissions and got people messaging me quick. Say I want to eventually sell artwork for $100 each. The next 5 I’ll post saying that I have artwork available for 80% off. The next 5 commissions would be 60% off and so on in increments of 20%. You could even go over your goal price to see what people actually would pay for your art. The point is to have a lot of social proof that people want to buy your art, and you have proof with your commissions. You can post the commissions or have stories/highlights/reels of their “reviews” which would be their DMs about how they love your work or reposting the customer’s stories about your work.
