How can I build my email list when selling through galleries or shared studio spaces?

Create a ‘draw to win a free print’ promotion wherever you’re present in person. Have people enter by providing their email address. Use this technique when you’re painting in public, in your studio, or at any gallery residency. While not everyone will sign up, you’ll capture a significant portion of people who interact with your work. This is especially valuable when you’re in situations where you might not otherwise get customer contact information, like when selling through galleries or shared retail spaces.
