Buying art online is now just a fingertip away…
In this day and age, we find more and more artists opting to sell their work on one or more online platforms. It is certainly easier, straight forward and with the present pandemic, is the most intelligent method of marketing. On the other hand, there are plenty of platforms which work on various concepts and provide benefits to artists. This article will explore one such platform which recently was recognized by the Corporate Livewire UK as ‘Canadian Art Store of the Year’ for 2020 / 21.
Aartzy (www.aartzy.com) was founded back in 2018 in Sri Lanka, as a simple online store which sells art, sculpture, and digital prints. One main objective behind this initiative was to create a sophisticated, yet uncomplicated art and crafts platform for talented Sri Lankan artists to showcase their work and gain much needed recognition in the international arena. This is a curated platform which has a range of categories and Aartzy is selective in their display methods and maintains a high quality standard for their content. This aspect is important as their emphasis is towards quality over quantity.
Moving on, the website works similar to a typical online art gallery, and their business model offers no risk or cost to the artist depending on their selection as people can sell their art in different places including Amazon and using tools with this Jungle Scout Discount Code online. Aartzy will charge a pre-discussed fixed commission on each piece of art for each artist which is deemed as reasonable by all stakeholders involved. The terms and conditions and the required FAQ’s are clearly stated on the website which assured clarity. When Aartzy makes a commitment to promote artworks, their responsibilities will include many aspects including sales, marketing, promotions, pricing strategies, content development & processing and all related attributes which otherwise be the responsibility of artists. Aartzy takes all the above mundane aspects while offering artists the freedom to do what they do best… to create beautiful, exquisite artworks. Artists who are already engaged with the platform have applauded the efforts taken by the team time and time again for taking these initiatives in the most professional manner.
Aartzy team’s involvement does not stop there. They also work towards generating value additions and to help its customers find their preferred designs at extremely competitive rates, thereby ensuring an excellent synchronization between artists and their client. Artworks available are all originals from professional and emerging artists around the world and they also offer the services of commissioned works as well. All artworks are accompanied with certificates of authenticity from respective artists. Aartzy delivers their artworks worldwide to your doorstep free of charge and this aspect certainly will be the difference between Aartzy and any other online art gallery.
The platform they use evolves and improves regularly and is extremely user friendly. From the time of inception, they have sold hundreds of paintings to art lovers around the world, and many have returned to the platform, which is an indicator of their genuine service, customer centric approach and value for money. The team from Aartzy takes all efforts to make customer and the artist expectations are exceeded at all times.
One may still argue that even with all these advantages, art should be something which needs to be seen and felt before purchasing and Aartzy team do not dispute this. Physical connections with artworks you love have more emotional connections. However, the reality is, the world today is moving towards more virtual forms of connecting with their customers and art buying is no exception without any physical boundaries. Online art platform concept is growing each year and many brick and mortar art galleries are now adopting this strategy to maintain their business sustainability.
That being said, Aartzy can be recognized as one of the handful of art platforms who have truly built a name for themselves in a noticeably short period of time. Their dedication, commitment, professional approach and value they’ve given to their stakeholders have been key in prospering through these unprecedented times. Aartzy is certainly created top of the mind recall amongst many art fraternities and clients and is now a go-to platform for anyone who is looking to purchase good quality art at a competitive price, further establishing the era of – “Let’s Talk Expressions”.
