I was on your Beginner Basics Teleseminar for Art Licensing, and I cannot thank you enough! It was fantastic, and exactly what I wanted and needed at this time.

I have been exposed to and learning about art licensing for about 3 months. I was on the Paul Brent phone call in June, and found it so informative and inspiring, and have gotten a lot of information through my own research, but your call today really helped me put it all together and consolidate my knowledge and research to this point.

Everything you said on the call was exactly in the proper order for me to understand, and I found your action guide for the call VERY helpful as I took notes on it while you spoke. The way you categorized the steps of your seminar was very logical and thus easy to understand and process – it’s a lot of information!

I really appreciate getting “the reality of the job” of an artist in this field, from the inside, and your goal of “polarizing” us into feeling either for or against the job description! I am definitely “for” this career, for me, and your website and calls are a great resource for me to inspire myself to keep going.

Thank you again, very much – I look forward to listening to the call again.

Hi Paul and Tara,

Thanks so much for sharing your licensing experiences and knowledge. Your session was so interesting and informative that I wish it lasted longer. I loved the format with Tara asking Paul questions and then jumping in periodically with comments. I felt like I was listening in to a conversation between two professionals discussing the business we all love - art licensing. I look forward to the next session in June and also your ebooks Paul!

I just bought your Goal Wheel for Artists. It is absolutely what I have been looking for to move forward with my art. I have been listening to your seminar and following along with the text and also working on my wheel all at the same time! Awesome. I feel like I have gotten a lot done already.

Your web site is an incredible resource for learning about the complex world of licensing. After reading through your web site, listening to interviews, and following you on Twitter, I've gone from feeling intimidated about the business to feeling empowered and ready to take my art where I want it to go. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

The illustration market has changed drastically over the last decade. It is now more important than ever for an illustrator to be an entrepeneur. This involves marketing to the widest possible number of potential buyers. It also means initiating, rather than simply waiting for projects to come. Licensing fits the bill on both of these. Tara Reed's books contain a wealth of information, much of which can only be gotten by the doing and she has done it. Licensing may not be for everyone, but her books give a fuller picture of this sometimes mysterious, but potentially lucrative, market.

As an illustrator with years of experience, I thought it would be easy to jump into licensing my artwork. But as I tried to learn about the industry I found there were no good resources. Then I found Tara Reed's website and learned about her great eBooks. Since then I have gotten all of them and feel like the cloud of mystery has been lifted. I am so happy I found them. The 'Cliffs Notes' to art licensing. I highly recommend them.

I forwarded Tara Reed's terrific newsletter to a few artist friends that are on the fence about licensing. I wanted them to register and start receiving it too! I want them to see that licensing is not an overwhelming, murky undertaking and I feel like Tara's eBooks really whisk the fog away!
