Painting Auctions

  • Always keep your listings of paintings or art, simple and straight forward. A listing with fonts, pictures and lots of colors can drove a potential customer away from you without noticing your work. Don’t ever make your customer confused by pushing too much information on the listings. Make sure you have all your good paintings at the painting auction seven if you don’t want to sell them. These can be an exhibition of your future potential and keep buyers interested. A few good local auction houses are Christies Australia, Sotheby’s, Philips in Sydney, Joel- Leonard, Lawson-Menzies etc
  • Be always honest about your arts. If your painting has some defects, be courageous enough to list it. This will help your buyer to know what he will get exactly after buying the painting at the painting auctions. He will appreciate it and you will always get positive feed back. This will help you to get more buyers and better profits.
  • Show your positive attitude everywhere in the listings especially in statements declaring starting prices. Some sentences and words you use in your listings can prevent customers from approaching you. Don’t ever use negative comments or comments that can hurt sentiments of people.
  • You can always include a side view picture of your painting you want to sell, in the listings. Try to give your picture a broader view. Use only high quality pictures for displaying. Don’t use other paintings and pictures that you don’t want to sell. Some popular painting auction stores will give you promotional offers to display all your other art items towards the end of your auction.
  • If you are a beginner, don’t think that you have to offer your paintings for pennies. Always keep your price little up for painting auctions. Try to get profit so that you can pay your auction bills easily. So don’t under estimate your work and try to get maximum profit.
  • Use intelligent and common keywords to market your paintings. Don’t bother much about the meaning of headings, if it can bring you revenue. Your aim is to market your painting. So there is nothing wrong in using perfect keywords.
  • The positive feed back from your customer is very important for your business. Like any other marketing business, customer care is very important in painting auctions as well. If your customer is happy, he is sure to come back to buy your work again. So negative and positive feed backs from your customer should be collected to improve your work.
  • In your painting auction listings always remember to keep a page describing yourself. This will help the buyers to know from whom they are buying paintings. Most of the customers appreciate this and they will feel free, in selecting their favorite paintings.
