“I just want to make art!"

How many times have you said that when confronted with all those irritating little business details? If there's one thing all working artists have in common, it's that the business of making money from your art gets in the way of, well…making art!

“I need an agent—like yesterday.”

Wouldn't it be great if somebody else handled all that biz and marketing stuff for you?

Licensing your art can be an amazing way to monetize your creative talents, ether as a stand-alone pursuit or as part of your multiple streams of art income. But sometimes we want someone else to handle the sales, contract negotiation, financial arraignments so we have more time in the studio to make art! An agent can be the exact person you need on your team.

In this class you will learn how agents work, how to decide if getting an agent is right for you, how to find the right agent and how to determine if they are a good fit for you. You’ll also learn about the artist/agent contract: what should and should not be in it so you’ll be ready to go when the time is right.
