Add a Gallery | Wholesale Distributors
If you have a gallery, frame shop or internet business that sells limited edition prints by North Carolina Artists, this page is for you.
Wholesale Distributors - Where to find publishers and distributors for the Artists found on this site. Art dealers only- you must have a state retail license to buy directly from these distributors for resale.
Add a Gallery - If you have a gallery or frame shop that sells limited edition prints, use this form to be added to our site. It's free, but you must sell art by at least one of the artists shown on our site to be considered (selling art by all of them would be nice!).
Special offer to Art Dealers- (and it's free):
The Alliance Gallery has several hundred limited edition prints shown on it's website ( http://www.alliancegallery.com ). All these images are now available for your website, along with artist biographies and updated secondary market information. All you have to do is put a link on your current site and your customers can access all these fine prints, including new issues as they are released! (& it's free!)
For example, this is the link you would put on your site:
Fine Art Prints featuring North Carolina Artists
(go ahead and click the above link to see the Goldleaf Art & Frame example. Click the back button to return here)
Just putting the one link on your site opens the door to hundreds of pages of content- all of it with your business name attached. Just think of it- when any of our featured artists has a new release it will be on your site automatically. Your customers will see the value of their art investment as they look over the secondary market prices of sold out editions. And you don't have to spend any more time or money to keep your site up-to-date. If you don't have a site- no problem! We will be happy to make a simple page for you with basic information and a few pictures, along with a link to the Limited Edition Print images, for free! Click here for an example.
I'm interested:
If you are interested, send an email to us. In the subject area, type in "Link me up". In the text area give us your website URL (example- www.yourgallery.com), along with any message. Be sure to give us contact information- please don't send anonymous emails. If you want a website from scratch, see information below.
I'm a skeptic:
So, you ask, what's the catch? Listed below are the "Frequently Asked Questions" for skeptics.
Q- How quickly can I have my site established?
A- Soon, we hope, but don't expect immediate service- it's free!
Q- I know it's free, you keep saying that, but how can I contribute to your
worthy cause?
A- We are trying to promote North Carolina artists- please stock their
prints.
Q- You don't have an artist on your list that I think would be a good addition.
A- You may suggest a new artist to add to the list- we make the final
decision.
Q- I don't carry all the artists on your site, how do I buy their works
wholesale?
A- For wholesale info for dealers click here.
Q- So how much are you charging those poor starving artists for this service?
A- It's free for them, too.
Q- Will this service stay free?
A- For all of 2002, definitely. If the workload increases dramatically and
it becomes more like work than fun, or if our traffic increases to the point
that our hosting service is charging us extra monthly fees, we may charge a
small yearly fee, but by then you will know whether it is worth it or not.
Q- Where is your Gallery?
A- You're looking at it- we do not have a physical site, nor do we sell
artwork.
I want a website:
We can make a website with just text, but it looks better with some pictures, logos, etc. Send us some pictures or a brochure with your basic information, and we'll put something together for you. The free website will be www.alliancegallery.com/your_gallery_name unless you want a domain name, which will cost $35 per year for the domain name registration and $10 per month for hosting services ($120 per year), all paid in advance.
Send the info to Alliance Gallery, PO Box 2, Cedar Mountain, NC 28718
If you've read this far, you're interested, so go ahead and send the email!
