Step Nine: Follow Up and Do Not Give Up

Studio Visits Give You Experience

Studio visits get easier the more you do. Look at them as a learning experiences and opportunity to sharpen you verbal communication skills.

Follow Up

Again, express your interest in the opportunity and thank them for their time. You may do this via a mailed note, email or phone call. If you did not get the desired result, you may want to ask the visitor if they know of any shows or galleries that would fit with your work. Use the information that they give you. Keep networking and following up with your contacts. The majority of gallery/show slots are filled by recommendation. Don’t give up! If you did get the desired result. Congratulations! It is time to celebrate!
