Hi,
I hope you are doing well.
I'm a little concerned. There is only one day left to take me up my special offer to join FASO for just $99 for your first year and I haven't heard back from you. Is everything OK?
If you're OK, then I can only assume one of two things. Either I'm doing a lousy job of explaining all the benefits of AMP and FASO, or I just haven't answered all of your questions.
If I am doing a lousy job, please let me know. It's the only way I'll ever get better at doing what I do, and I promise not to get offended in any way.
As a matter of fact, I view this type of feedback as a special gift that should be appreciated when given. So I promise to treat your feedback the same way. You can reach me at dave@faso.com.
On the off chance that I just haven't answered all of your questions, I thought I'd try something different.
I went back through all the emails that I've received from artists so far about this offer and pulled together a list of the most common questions along with my answers. Perhaps some of these are the same questions that are holding you back from joining us.
Here's that list:
Which FASO membership are you including in this special offer?
This offer includes our FASO Gold membership, which provides you with everything that you'll need to put AMP into action and sell your art online.
For more details on our Gold membership and how it compares to our other memberships, you can visit our pricing page.
How much are you going to charge me after my first year is over?
After your first year of FASO you have plenty of options available to you. It all depends on what you want to do. You can:
How long does it take for your team to contact me about building my website? And how long will the process take?
You'll receive an email with instructions from our team a day or two after you take advantage of this offer. After that, it typically takes about two weeks for them build your website.
Do I have to take you up on your offer to build my website for me? Or can I build it myself?
You are under no obligation to use our team to build your new FASO website. If you'd like to build it ourself, go right ahead!
All that I ask is that you let our team know that you're not interested in getting their help when they reach out to you after you join us.
Can I get access to AMP without becoming a member of FASO?
We're sorry, but access to AMP and all of our AMP resources is something that we exclusively offer to our members.
The good new is now you can join FASO and get all our AMP resources at a great introductory price through this special offer.
Can I sell prints and giclees on FASO?
We're currently building our own Print-on-Demand service here at FASO to help you sell prints and giclees. It should be ready by the end of the year.
If you can't wait that long, I've got some good news for you. We can give you early access to it today through our beta program once you join FASO. Just remember that our Print-On-Demand feature is still being work on by our team, so it might not have everything that you want just yet.
If you're interested in getting early access, just reach out to our support team after you join us through this special offer. All I ask is that you use the feature and give us your honest feedback on what you think about it.
I teach other artists. Can FASO help me market and sell my classes, workshops, courses, and instructional videos?
Absolutely! Not only can you add these to your FASO website, but when you do we'll automatically promote them for you to our audience of over 70K visual artists in our FineArtViews newsletter.
For many of our members, these promotions in FineArtViews are their #1 source of new students. I know they'll work for you too.
I'm starting to use a lot of video on my website and thinking about offering free and paid instructional videos. Can FASO help me with that?
We sure can! Our Video feature makes it so easy to upload videos right to your FASO website. And it saves you time, because when you add videos to FASO we automatically create pages to promote and sell them for you.
We also make it super easy to add videos anywhere else that you want, whether that's on other pages on your FASO website, in your email newsletters, or on other websites.
And if you sell paid art instructional videos, we've got you covered too! Paid videos are just as easy to set up on FASO, work seamlessly with our built-in Shopping Cart, and we take care of a lot of the hassle for you by:
Best of all, you don't have to deal with complicated video platforms like YouTube and Vimeo anymore. Your videos will be hosted right here on FASO, where they'll play without any pesky ads.
What if I already have a lot of videos on YouTube? Do I have to move them all to FASO now?
No, you don't. Our Video feature lets you point to your YouTube videos and still take advantage of all of the benefits that I shared with you. We'll automatically create pages for them on your FASO artist website and you can add them on other pages just as easily.
The only downside is that they will still be running on YouTube, which means you'll still have to deal with those pesky ads and other videos that play after your video is over. So you might want to consider moving them to FASO after all.
What are BoldBrush Ads credits and how do I use them?
BoldBrush Ads is our advertising platform. It helps you promote your artwork, exhibits, classes, workshops, art instructional videos, and more to our audience of over 38K collectors and 70K visual artists in our daily newsletters.
When you're ready to place an ad, just reach out to our support team and they'll walk you through the process. Your $50 credit will automatically appear in your account and we'll use it to pay for your first ad with us.
By the way, placing your own ads on BoldBrush Ads is something extra that you can do on top of all the automated promotion that we already do for you as a member.
So whether you choose to place additional ads with us or not, you still get all that automated promotion that we do for you at no additional charge.
Do I need a credit card to pay for FASO? Or can I pay through Venmo, PayPal, or ACH?
I'm afraid that we only accept major credit cards like VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express at this time.
I live outside the United States. Can I pay for FASO in my local currency?
I'm sorry, but we only accept payments in US dollars at this time.
So how did I do? I really hope that this helped answer any lingering questions that you had about how this all works.
