Where can I find someone that can help me create a luxury book for art prints?

Both domains are very important. I suggest that you use both of them in different ways. If you believe that your empiric spirit domain is a "company" that you would like to support in social media and in articles, etc., for years to come, support it on its own domain separately from your personal domain. However, I surmise that your personal domain is where you will (and, in my opinion, should) be driving up your social media presence and content. So, I recommend that you direct all book traffic there. So, create a subdomain for your site, or a subfolder, and "point" your book domain to that subfolder. Write about the book in your social media and blog, and all traffic will come where you want it to ultimately come - your website. It's important to maintain a website for the success of your book - for informational purposes, and to show people where to purchase the book. But it is important that you use social media like a pro, and become a guest blogging expert and frequent guest on radio programs... Those things matter much more. Direct all traffic where you want using bitly links, and track what is most effective. Good luck! Enjoy the journey :)

Great approach! Many people don't realize that campaigns must be created and implemented well ahead of time. Growth hacking for example takes time and a lot of diligence, many think is a quick solve all approach to marketing but contrary to that! I would be willing to help you if you have any questions. I have done several growth campaigns with significant results, you didn't seem to post a question tho. :)

Hi there, A good question to consider is this: are people willing to pay to read what you want to write? Do your interests represent a big enough "market" to create and sustain a livelihood? People who make a living out of publishing online seem to have one thing in common: they figure out where their interests intersect with other people's interests. I'm not talking about generating a ton of link bait. I'm talking about finding a hungry crowd. You can sell a world-class hamburger in a vegetarian neighborhood and still go out of business. You can publish excellent articles and blog posts on the arts and humanities, and still make no money. Here's some practical advice for finding your hungry crowd(s): Go to Medium.com. Do some research. Identify the writers who are already publishing on the subjects that interest you. What kind of following have they built up? How many recommends do their stories get on average? Which stories are their most popular? What's their strategy? Do their stories route readers to an external blog or website? Can you figure out how they are making money? If you do "competitive analysis" on two to three dozen arts & humanities writers, then you'll notice some patterns. You'll notice that some topics sell better than others. Or some stylistic elements or flourishes have enabled certain writers to build an audience quickly. Use your analysis to reverse engineer your audience. You can't make a living publishing online until you have an audience. Lastly, watch this video, and pay attention to the part at the end about left-handed vampire movies: https://kicktastic.com/video/convince-convert-jay-baer/. Hope this helps, Austin

Have you considered providing the book in electronic format. If somebody wants the book and are willing to pay the shipping fee, they get the paper copy, otherwise, it's a download.

First of all, this will come down to branding and how you wish to position yourself relative to the vertical (niche) you wish to operate in. Things such as market research do help to a certain extent but it will also come down to what that luxury item is. For instance; in the sense of luxury watches or jewellery, the brand will play a greater role owing to the provenance, and the target market who wish to pay/acquire those particular items will put more weight into the brands carried as a way to validate the brand of the place that stocks those particular items. This leads to the secondary consideration is the particular clientele you wish to approach. You'll notice that in the areas regarding luxury you might find two major categories; sellers who wish to offer the absolute lowest price for luxury items thereby making them more accessible, or those that offer more of the concierge service and charge accordingly. In both cases, you will be able to tailor your approach from your presentation, stock levels/selection, pricing, features (things that you want to stand out on against your competitors), and overall service delivery which makes your marketing and sales channels much easier to select and focus on. Once you have a clear idea of those basic questions, the next stages become much simpler as you aren't trying to answer HOW to make money, you're answering the question of WHO are you going to make money off. Ultimately; your clientele and business model can be profitable if managed properly and if you keep that in mind; a marketing strategy can be made that is actionable and sustainable. If you wish, happy to talk more and provide more detail should you have more follow-up questions.
