If you can increase this rate, you will shorten this timeline as much as is possible.
The rate at which you make progress will determine how long it takes. Well, it depends (sorry!), but the only way to get there is to get started, and begin making progress. Instead, once you taste a little success, you see all the little things you did that all added up to get you here. You do not wake up one day with success on your doorstep. The common theme is this: Building your art business - or any business for that matter - is a process of making continual small incremental improvements over long periods of time.

There's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all success timeline (and be wary of anyone who promises you success in X number of weeks, months, or years), but something we can do is tell the stories of how and when real photographers and fine artists did the work to create success for . We're as sick of saying "it depends" as you are of hearing it, so here's what we came up with: Some artists find success within just a couple of months, others take a couple of years to find their footing. Photographers and fine artists asking us this question don't want to hear "it depends" – and we don't blame them!

It even comes up with the biggest question of all: How long does it take to become successful at selling art online?
