ArtBiz Facebook Pages!

One of my favorite Linkedin artist groups is “Art Business”, the brainchild of Alyson B. Stanfield. Alyson is known as the Art Biz Coach.

On 11/17/2010 the Art Business group had over 1,100 members.  Today, May 1, 2012 there are 6,465 members! I think this may prove that Social Media like Linkedin and Facebook can connect people with common interests!

Several of the Art Business group discussions involve the creation and management of Facebook Business Pages.  To illustrate how you can participate and make a positive contribution to a group, I started a discussion called the “Facebook Business Page-Round Robin” which gives group members an opportunity to list a link to their Facebook Business Page.

The result so far is a continuously updated list of great artist pages.  Please check them out and “Like” your favorites! Members of the Linkedin ArtBiz group may submit their FB Biz Page to be included by posting a reply below.
