1, illustrator:
1) vision china/Station Kuluohai
These two platforms are both authoritative platforms. Vision china needs to upload his works on the platform after signing the contract, and Giankuhailuo can upload them directly. When uploading, you can choose exclusive or non-exclusive, depending on your needs. Although the non-exclusive income is not too high, the same works can be sold continuously to make money, which is a good way to earn income continuously.
2) Other solicitation platform websites
For example, illustrator China, rice painter, graffiti kingdom, artists' union, art box, UI China, Qiantu. com, petals and so on.
When uploading works on these platforms, it's best to pay more attention to the directional uploading of business hotspots and the serial uploading, and the effect will be doubled.
2. Peripheral products
1) own subnet:
You can open your own shop here, so you need to have your own traffic. It can also be sold on behalf of the company, and the share of sales revenue will be much less, but the products can be sold through the traffic of the platform. Before that, I simply uploaded a few pictures, and I sold a few simple pictures happily, but because it was for sale, the income was not very high, but it was also a small channel for continuous income.
2) Taobao shop cooperation:
After you continue to increase your exposure and promote yourself, some Taobao stores will take the initiative to seek your cooperation. There are two ways of store cooperation:
You set the price.
For example, a T-shirt shop has its own reserve price, which will let you set the price. The money you earn is the price you set minus the floor price of the store.
Pricing (you decide) = store floor price+price difference (earned)
Earn commission
For example, in a decorative painting shop, he will give 5% ~ 10% of the monthly sales at a specified time every month.
3) Open your own shop:
Taobao shop or micro shop. This requires you to bring your own traffic and have a certain popularity. Many people like your paintings very much. You can open your own shop and sell some peripheral products made by your own illustrations. Such as T-shirts, notebooks, mobile phone cases, canvas bags, pillows and so on.
4) publish a book:
Illustrations or picture books can continue to receive royalties.
5) offline large-scale illustration activities:
For example, the Illustrator Carnival, Singularity Art Festival, China International Illustrator Hundred People Exhibition and other activities. Here, you can constantly promote your peripheral products and meet many illustrators in the same industry. Many businesses will come here to find illustrators, which will give you more possibilities and opportunities.
