Vermont Art Network
Membership is FREE!
Open to Vermont Residents Only
When you join Vermont Artisan Network, you're entitled to:
-
A Member Page containing up to six photographs of your work, a resumé or biography, or a description of your work and why you do what you do - anything that will generate interest in your work and cause people to want to see more. Your name, address, phone number and email address will be listed, as well as a FREE link to your website. If you don't have your own website and want to showcase more of your work, additional pages can be added to your member page for a small fee - a mini website within our website.
-
Online Catalog: Parking spots for 10 items. As your items sell, new items can be inserted. Each single item can be listed in two different categories. We take a 20% commission on all work sold through our web site. See "How it Works - Catalog" for more information.
-
Free classified ads: Sell/Trade/Buy/Give Away: Do you want to sell something or are you looking for supplies to finish a special project? Sell anything (other than your crafts or artwork) free. Ads run until your item sells or until you tell us to drop the ad.
-
Free listing for any classes or workshops you teach - a good way to earn some extra money and pass on the skills you've worked so hard to perfect.
-
Studio Listings: If you keep regular studio hours so that customers can stop by unannounced, we will list them here. You will be listed by region/county, so visitors out driving around can make several stops on the same day. We'll also list any weekend you want to hold an Open Studio.
-
Free Listing in our Hire an Artist Directory which showcases other skills and talents you use to help you make a living.
Sell Your Work Online
Once we are notified by PayPal that a sale has been made, we notify you. After deducting PayPal's fees (approximately 3%) we will transfer 80% of the balance to your PayPal account. You will have your money BEFORE you ship the item. No more waiting for checks, no more follow-up phone calls or miscommunications. We get paid, you get paid, and then you ship the item to your customer. So, that means you need to set up a PayPal account.
You are responsible for sending us images (no larger than 600 x 600 pixels), a full description of the item, its price and all shipping charges. The shipping charges will be included in the final price the customer pays, so there can't be any mistakes. No "Oops, I forgot to add..."
Do you have a web site? Let us know and we'll link it to our site. The more exposure the better, right?
Don't have a web site? Let us build you a page on our site. All we need are some photos of your work and a blurb about yourself or your work.
Would you like to be included on the page which features other artists/craftspeople who work in your medium? Check out the "Artists by Category" pages. We'd love to have a picture of your work to go with your name linked to either your website address or your email address.
Need help building a web site. We can help. Contact us by clicking the "email us" link on the left. Or, for a true do-it-yourself experience, visit GODADDY.com.
