It's been four years since I started my work as an artist, and I've revised my prices, but I'm not confident. What should I improve first to create attractive works that are worth the price? This is what I'm asking for. Please see the summary below for the full question and related videos. ▼Minne, Japan's largest handmade and handcrafted online shopping site by GMO Pepabo https://bit.ly/3uFL3Yt ▼For those who want to sell handmade works online https://bit.ly/36UuCiK Also, today I had prepared a reversed poster as the background, but the performance of the iPhone I used for recording exceeded my expectations, so it just became a reversed poster. I will prepare it so that it looks normal from next time. "Good Morning! minne LAB" is the official video distribution that minne delivers to artists who are working on crafts. You can see the video recording on the minne LAB Instagram account. / minne_lab If you want to see the whole distribution, please take a look at the Instagram live♪ We distribute mainly every Monday and Thursday. ◆Please take a look at this along with today's video◆ ▼The 4th edition of the official minne book "minne teaches you the basics of selling" has been decided! https://amzn.to/2NxTNd9 * * 29th questioner: Anonymous artist, nice to meet you. It's been 4 years since I registered as an artist on minne. While I was doing everything by myself and feeling my way around, minne has many opportunities to learn things online that will help me create a gallery, which is very encouraging. Thank you very much. I would like to receive some specific advice on how to improve, so I have applied for a consultation. Thank you very much. As things stand, I have been incorporating what I learned at Oha LAB little by little and have recently raised my prices significantly. Before I repriced my items, I was able to receive constant orders every month, even though they were small, but I knew that this was because I had set the prices low. The cost price does not include transportation costs or shipping fees, and even though it takes 3 to 4 hours to make one, I have hardly included labor costs. I felt a mixture of joy and pain in making them. Now, I feel relieved that I have raised the price, but at the same time, I feel sorry for the customers. In terms of the visible situation, I can't even sell my favorites anymore, and I feel depressed that my works were only worth the low price... but at the same time, I am calm because I think that anyone can copy my works. If that's the case, I should make works that people will find attractive even if I charge a fair price! But I always end up making the same style and I don't know where to start.・It is not a genre that you can buy repeatedly ・The price of works by artists in the same genre is also cheap ・If you reflect all the production time, it will be a huge amount, but ... even if I do market research, I have not been able to create a work that is worth it ・In the meantime, the wonderful works that catch your eye at a glance have a great design and technique, and I am satisfied with the proper price When I look at the profiles of such artists ... Many of them have graduated from design schools and art universities I know that I can't catch up right away because the experience and time of effort are different ... I tried to analyze it myself, but I want to break out of the monotony and start again to create wonderful works. Oha LAB is not in real time, but I have completed all of them and am trying to improve what I can, but ... What should I improve first to create attractive works that are worth the price? I just can't find the answer. I would appreciate it if you could teach me. I think there were a lot of negative contents, but I would like to move forward, so please do your best. * * "Good morning! minne LAB" is always accepting concerns from artists.
