Selling to Friends----

Friends are often an entree to a market BUT this can also kill your ambitions...
My advice is to be wary of selling to FRIENDS too cheaply as they will mentally devalue you work. You are more likely to get future sales from their friends if they highly value you and your work. I would sooner GIVE a print to a friend than sell a painting cheaply. If you bought a car from a friend's car dealership he/she would not sell you a Prius for half price, would they? They may 'throw' in an upgrade on the stereo- think adding a simply adding a simple frame.
