How to find Art Collectors on Instagram Fast | Selling Art Online tips
Vložit

- There are all sorts of hacks that you can use to find art collectors online. The best way to find them on Instagram is to go to the art galleries that are selling art that’s very similar to the art you make so that you are sure that the collectors who are buying from those galleries are interested in your type of art. Then go to the ‘following’ section of that gallery page on Instagram (aka the people that the gallery is following) and search for collectors. Now this method will give you a list of highly targeted collectors but what are you going to say? If you ask them to check out your art, or invite them to an opening of one of your upcoming shows I can guarantee that you will not get any replies and will likely turn them off. In this video we will be explaining some prospecting tactics that you can use so that you know exactly what to say as well as some tactics to find art collectors on Instagram.
If you like this video and would love to learn more about art business, I would recommend to check out my other videos for emerging artists around various topics including selling art, buying art, art collectors and more.

This is very true. I picked up some art collectors during my Masters course in London. They are so specific on what they want, and they might even visit your studio to discuss a commission or purchase work. Or they might not want to meet you at all, lol! I've had couples buy art, students, dentists, tutors, and designers. (Btw, oil on canvas, quite different from what my CZcams channel shows. More for fun!). Once a collector came to my studio to purchase a painting and I had a pile of A4 papers with rough ideas using acrylic. She looked through them and offered £100 for one! So you never know what will happen. It's good to build a friendship with them. But be warned, some collectors can get possessive and controlling. So keep it professional, have your boundaries, and have other collectors on rotation 👍
just found your channel, appreciate another artist sharing some good knowledge. Sharing is caring, cheers from Amsterdam :)
Thank you! Cheers Robin!
Never saw some creator do such nice and honest videos about selling and telling the real life true of being an artist! Congratulations Dries for your videos and arts!
You are too kind Marcellini. Thanks for your positivity in the comment section. Always nice to see those
I love the psychology focus of your videos. Mine is more investigatory. Sherlock Holmes of the Art World. Very impressed and keep producing my art friend
The "maybe i will be your lover" element is very comical! Its always a plaisure to see you talking :)
you really change my perspective to sell art
omg I'm in new world 😳
That's just lovely to hear Kalargi. And that's exactly what this channel is about.
I love how your videos are straight to the point, and provide usable advice to artists, but you also have a great presentation style and let your personality come through. Thanks so much!
Dries, as someone says here your videos are really honest. That’s rare I mean the honesty coming through so strongly. It’s really impressive. Most artists presenting on you tube are good but there’s still a distance you know. But you are able to really connect with the viewers. I’m watching all your videos again. Thank you again ❤
Thank you Dries! I just listened to 3 videos all in one go, I am so tired but it was worth it and I will continue to watch others! :)
Your videos are really helpful. I'm totally binge watching them tonight. Like many people & artists, I'm quite clueless when it comes to selling my original art. Sometimes I feel like there is almost a taboo surrounding the topic of selling art. I started to get some commissions and people are inquiring about my paintings so I'm trying to figure it out but there is so much to learn it can feel quite overwhelming. Connecting with art collectors or finding them is something I have never ever thought of. I suppose that shows how 'green' I am in the art world, but I know I think there are a lot of us like that. Probably even professional artist can be a bit clueless when it comes to some of these things. Art is a confusing world in terms of business, there are many myths around it and I'm sure both buyers and artists have issues navigating all of it.
There are a lot of myths indeed and many are clueless. That's the main reason I developed this channel because I was so clueless for so many years. Thanks for the appreciation Ivana. if there is something that you would like to see covered on the channel, let me know... Would love to make more videos that can help you out.
So glad I’ve subscribed to your channel. You seem to have a knack of giving me ideas/inspiration, sometimes completely unrelated to the topic of the video so I get a bonus when I watch you. I love it when one of your videos pops up on my feed that I haven’t seen before. 💛
Welcome aboard Jules!
Thank Dries for sharing so much. Your perspective is unique, objective and without a hidden agenda, which is so rare these days. Much appreciated.

Glad to help Larry. You deserve some of those collectors after 40 years. Go for it, you got this. And thanks for taking the time to write such a nice comment.
Saw your channel, click subscribe not even 10mnt watching on first video. super excitement, energy and straight to the point easy to understand.
I'm glad to have you Zita. Looking forward to seeing you around.
Hey Man
thanks for these inputs
I find this information thought-provoking
It was good to hear you say in a previous video - that we should focus on one platform only - for instance
This was so valuable. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it can be tricky balancing art and business but so important to do so.
You are more then Welcome Emily.
Thank You...I have new respect for Artists...I am self-taught, but inspired by so many. I appreciate your honesty of information. ❤
you got me with the first line. it's bloody well true.
You got me with your first comment Carla... appreciated.

Thanks for all the great tips! Love the personal approach!
Personal is my middle name Carina. if there is something that you would like to see covered on the channel, let me know... Would love to make more videos that can help you out.
Just watched 3 of your videos one after another. I've been painting for years and have tried so many dead ends online. Your words make a lot of sense to me. I am trying to get to grips with Instagram at the minute and you have given me some great food for thought.
That's lovely to hear Steve... I wish you the best of luck.
What’s your Instagram handle?
Helpful video and totally worth the effort. Like this strategy and thank you for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
🤣🤣 Love your sense of humor in these videos
I'll definitely be following you, it sounds awesome to be able to connect even if it's only online. Thanks for the tip, I had thought about something similar but not quite efficient as this sounds. Cheers bro.
You're welcome Nathan
So, I absolutely love this... im struggling with my niche... but, I'm going to watch all of your videos. Your voice is soft but, very stern and sure... I trust u.
You got this! Hope to see you around.
Your videos are great. I really appreciate your knowledge.
Love all this teaching thank you so so so much. Your information has been so helpful. !!!
You are the best Diana.
Oh shit ... know I understand why I felt exhausted on trying so hard and having no results . When you show sincere interest to someone , they want to give you the same . That feels way more real and valuable than all the strategies we apply all the time . Create link is the way. Thx a lot for your videos . I'm glad to have discovered your channel . Good words ! Bisous !
You're welcome Louise. Hope to see you around
Huh. I had already started with this .... really gratifying to know I was on the right track. But yes, it's very time-consuming. Thanks again for your great insights.
Hey great commentary and insight. Thank you for sharing
Thankyou so much! This helped a lot! And you have very soothing voice...it was amazing guidance video! ✨
You're absolutely welcome... Good luck
@@driesketels thanks alot!
Thank you so much, I've been watching you for several days to take the best strategy for my photo sales, GREETINGS FROM MEXICO
That's just wonderful. Love it. Greetings back from Belgium.
I have a feeling I’ll be revisiting your channel a lot! King!
That's very nice to hear Jenny... See you around.
Recently found you. TY for all the information. Looking forward to diving in, bff😉
I'm amazed that you don't have more youtube subscribers, on Instagram you are killing it.
The 1st half of this video had me like - Don't tell me what's unlikely, tell me what's likely... but the 2nd half was very informative, so thank you!
Just subscribed, thank you so much for the insights it was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful Mozzafiato!
I recently started to follow you and several other helpful artists on youtube to help in expanding my knowledge on business, marketing, and really making art my career. Figuring out where the right people to talk to are, and how to understand social media algorithms is a very big thing that I've struggled with personally. Thank you for sharing your information and experiences.
You're welcome. Sadly there are not a lot of artists sharing business advice on CZcams. If you have some recommendations of people I should check out. Let me know.
(ps: put it in the most recent video because I don't get notifications to replies on replies. I only get a notification the first time)
I also intend to gear towards that direction but understanding how algorithm works and maneuvering it is truly a challenge.
Am an artist but never sold my art
@@stephaniemonreal7262 same! Well I’ve sold prints and commissions but not an original art piece...
What’s your Instagram handle?
