How to use Canva

Launched in 2013, Canva is an online graphic design platform, used to create social media graphics, presentations, posters, documents and other visual content for those who wish to create a more professional online visual presence.

The app includes templates for users to use. The platform is free to use but also offers paid subscriptions like Canva Pro and Canva for Enterprise for additional functionality.

How to use Linktree

A quick way to boost your engagement online, ensure convenience for your followers and allow you scope to drive traffic to different online sites is to utilise Linktree!

Linktree is a tool used widely on instagram to connect your audience to all of your content with just one link in your bio.

Basically It offers you a hosting platform (mini website), where you can add links to a diverse range of content, not just your website. 

It is very user friendly and has some handy features. For example, it allows you to update your ‘tree’ of links ahead of time, rather than having to edit your bio link with every blog post, promotion or project, and you can simple activate or hide these links as and when it suits you. It also allows you to add video's, subscriber and payment links.

And best of all, you can customise your Linktree with your logo, brand colours and images.

Like Canva, Linktree also offers paid options to add more content and customisation if you need it.

How to sell your art online workbook and activity book

Selling is the action or business of persuading someone of the value of something and exchanging it for money.

Selling your art online is a complex process however because the technology continually expands, develops and changes.

But the fundamentals of selling will never change - its all about the relationship you build with your desired audience. 

Design your online selling plan

Before we begin any activity we need to make a plan.

Now that you have completed the workbooks and activities, the next step is to make a plan for how you are going to approach selling your artwork online.
