How Not To Starve As A Starving Artist 1: Cost, Pricing & Profit

by Alysia on September 20, 2011 at 1:51 pm
Posted In: Blog

Some of the most important things to learn in order to be successful in the Artist’s Alley are proper pricing of your work and how to allocate and control costs for producing your items.  It’s necessary to set prices at a level where items will both sell and turn a reasonable profit. (If you think artists making profit on their work is somehow wrong or excessive –there’s the door. These posts are not for you.)

1. How much does it cost you?

Divide the total cost of production by the amount you produce.

You arrive at the total cost of production by adding the cost of making each unit, supplies used to make it, and the cost of the labor to produce it.  Divide that cost by the number of units you intend to make. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Store Update

Just to get this up at the top, the store is being worked on, I think I’ve got it. The Apprentice Vol. 1 is now up for purchase, check out the special offer.

Sorry, got very sick at-con and I’m working through medication induced brain fog.  Once our main products are set into the store, we will be updating the gallery so that people can order custom prints.  If you want to see our art, look here:
