10. How to Manage Clients and Customers Through the Original Artwork Commission Process as a Professional Artist

Let’s say it’s Monday morning and you open your inbox to find not one, not two, but three emails from customers who want to hire you for a commission of original artwork. What do you do? 

Do you know how to get those new customers from their commission inquiry email all the way through your process to the final product? 

Is there a customer service or communication layer built into your creation process that keeps clients informed along the way? Are you keeping communication in mind to instill THEIR trust and confidence in the process? Do your clients have a sense of when their piece will be ready and available for them to take home? 

Today, we’re talking about the client, customer, and commission communications that will set you apart from amateur to professional.

I’m sharing a model I use almost every day in the management of creative projects with my team. It’s a great model to use for your client communications, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it.
