How long does it take to see results from marketing my art consistently?

Most artists think in truncated timelines like 3 or 6 months, but that’s fundamentally flawed thinking. You’re going to be creating art for the rest of your life — 20, 30, 40, 50+ years depending on your age. When you realize you have that much time, it makes a very compelling case to start doing the right things now, even the things you don’t want to do. You’re not trying to get results in 3 months; you’re building a business that will grow over decades. The time argument is your friend — start now and let compound consistency work for you.
