hey y'all
so I have a VERY good, trusted friend who is a brilliant artist. his paintings are incredible, only prob is I wouldn't even know he was an artist if we weren't friends
he's just starting to learn how to market his artwork/talent and the yt vids he's been watching are mostly irrelevant to him. he's not selling digital goods, shipping costs are insanely expensive in JA and aside from WU or Moneygram, online payment options are non-existent. govs here have massively neglected basic infrastructure, including the online realm
his target is local peeps and tourists, the latter of which as of now would not know anything about how seriously he takes his craft
he's creating a new biz card (bigger than a usual biz card, thumbnail pics of some of his work, contact info etc) to set out at places where local peeps and tourists hang out
all he has right now is an email address and phone number
in the context of getting his name and talent out there, I suggested creating insta and twitter accounts, plus a YT channel showing the process of his creations, inspirations, that kinda thing
but also an OF. a free one which I get he needs to market himself, but an additional layer of credibility. he's been ripped off too many times so now requests 50% cash upfront
he does a lot of day labor to pay the bills and travels all over the island, underpaid, covered in rashes and mosquito bites when he comes home. we hook up and he usually sleeps at least 11 hours the first night, so tired and fed up with the bullshit
twitter, YT and insta were easy to set up, but I'm NO help with OF as I'm not on it. honestly confusing AF
I'm gonna build him a small website with all his contact info and samples of his work (for credibility that he's not fly by night on this), but again, figuring out how to get people to pay attention to how serious he is. figure OF might help with that, to add to his credibility
is anyone here familiar with the OF system willing to help a brother out?
if so, please PM me
