Believe it or not, Gadlin sells drawings like this one above for $10 a piece. Seriously, who buys these drawings? It is not a laughing matter because in the last one year he’s sold over 7,000 drawings and has a 4 to 6 week order backlog.Awesome!
Steve Gadlin (How I Make $70,000 Selling Art Works On My Website) story was first reported by Venture Beat.
“I wanted to create an experiment where I could do all the things people who create businesses do, and do it with just a widget,” Gadlin told VentureBeat. Initially, in early 2011, the site consisted of exactly two things: an embedded YouTube video, and a PayPal button. Clients watched the video, ordered a cat drawing, and paid $10. Then Gadlin drew it on paper and snail-mailed it to each customer.
Selling art works online has never been easy but Steve makes it look so easy. Steve's websites is iwanttodrawacatforyou.com.
As his success has spread around multiple copycat sites are cropping up with artists who want to sketch an elephant or dog for you. Credit to steve for teaching us you don't need to think big to succeed. Think Small!
Have an inspiring day.
