How to Maximize Your Time & Investment in Trade Shows
My latest eBook is READY! And it is just for you… the artist wanting to learn from the experience of others. There is a lot of generic information about trade shows but I haven’t found any that was specific to ART LICENSING trade shows. If you are exhibiting or thinking about exhibiting at SURTEX, Licensing International, CHA, AmericasMart or Printsource New York, you should consider this eBook.
I remember being so unsure of what to do when I got on the plane to head to my very first show. Would my booth, my art, my presentation be good enough or would it pale in comparison to others around me? What should I wear? What should I say? So many questions, so few answers targeted to me and my specific show.
Well the wait is over! I decided to tap, tap, tap away and create the book I wish I had when I was starting.
Maybe you have exhibited before, there are still tips and tricks that you may not have thought of.
You get tried-and-true information, not only from me, but from two other veteran artists: Ingrid of Nutshell Designs and Randy of Finkstrom International. They were kind enough to share their tips and insights which you will find scattered throughout the book.
Divided into 7 parts, I will walk you through the before, during and after of trade show success.
Here is the basic outline:
- Deciding Where to Exhibit
- You Picked a Show, Now Make a Plan
- Booth Design
- Set-Up Day
- Show Time!
- Follow Up After the Show
- Shows for Artists Who License Their Art
For a minimal investment, you can shorten your learning curve and hit the ground confident and running!
Click here for more details… and have a great show!

The eBook is ready! The eBook is ready!
I am feeling a little ‘Paul Revere-ish” this evening. I want to jump on my trusted steed and run through the streets crying, “The eBook is ready! The eBook is ready!” I suppose email is the modern day version of Paul Revere’s ride so I will accomplish the same thing here.
I can’t believe that in 3 busy weeks I was able to put all of this in a logical and easily referenced format.
Thanks to others as well — in the eBook, HOW TO GET STARTED IN ART LICENSING, you will find 3 interviews – an artist, an agent and a manufacturer – who were all kind enough to be recorded by phone. Then it was transcribed and edited. I hope you find the interviews interesting and insightful– I love to learn from others and hope you will too. I plan to continue with interviews in the future.
Forgive my babbling. I’m excited!
If you go to this page, you can get the first chapter to review for free.
I hope you take a look. Be sure to let me know what you think and what you want to learn next. This is only the start — I look forward to getting to know you and sharing our successes!
Here’s to a creative beginning…
