When determining whether to go with Artist Rise as my coaching/mentoring platform I admit to being skeptical at first…of them being able to guarantee art marketing success for me and, making my investment in my myself back. I took a leap of faith, I needed their help. They weren’t empty promises and I’m so glad I trusted. Jaroid Henry absolutely knows his stuff and has proven strategies and trainings to guide any visual artist to be able to sell their work and realize income! He is educated, knowledgeable, professional, well established and the best part…humble and kind…a joy to work with!!

Joining Artist Rise has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my art career. In my first month alone, I’ve almost made what I made in all of 2025. After graduating with an art degree, I felt completely lost when it came to turning my talent into income. I’d researched programs before, but most seemed focused on chasing viral content instead of building a real business. Jaroid teaches practical strategies you can apply over and over again to keep growing. The mentorship and community are incredibly supportive and genuinely want to see artists succeed. I’m already so grateful I joined and can’t wait to see how far this program takes me.

This program allowed me to figure out what I was doing wrong with getting my Art Pieces out there. Don't be slow in the modules, me urgent in getting this done. I made that mistake and realized the gem Had. Gearoid and Joannah are amazing! they always answer your questions on the Q&A. I will always be grateful to their advise. Looking forward to the success in the program.

I joined Artist Rise about two months ago because, while people loved my art in person, I had absolutely no clue how to connect with potential buyers—whether online or at events. Social media had turned into a space where I chatted mostly with other artists, and in-person sales felt inconsistent, so I knew I needed a clear strategy to grow a real business from my art. What’s blown me away is how practical, clear, and doable the training is. It doesn’t drown you in theory; it shows you exactly what to do, how to do it, and why it works. Within my first week, using the “Fast Start” approach, I sold three big originals—honestly beyond my wildest expectations! But even more valuable than the sales was the mindset shift. I realised that the biggest barrier wasn’t my audience; it was my own hesitation to put myself out there. The live Q&As with Jaroid are gold. He answers everyone’s questions directly and with zero fluff, and I’ve learned just as much from other artists’ questions as from my own. The community itself is incredible—supportive, generous, and full of artists at all different stages, so there’s always someone who’s “been there” and can help you move forward. I was nervous at first that it might be one of those pushy, salesy programs, but it’s absolutely not. The whole approach is about building genuine, long-term relationships with collectors. That really matters to me, and it’s at the heart of everything we learn here. It’s not a magic bullet—you have to put in the work—but it’s focused work that gets results. I've still got a long way to go but every week I can see my confidence, clarity, and strategy improving, and I finally feel like I have a roadmap to build the kind of art business I’ve always wanted. If you’re ready to take your art seriously and want a clear path (and community) to help you do it, Artist Rise is absolutely worth it.

Jaroid and Artist Rise are the real deal. Before joining, I couldn’t fathom that being a visual artist could actually be a real, sustainable path — it always felt like a distant dream, something I’d put on a pedestal. I didn’t understand social media or how artists were actually turning their creativity into consistent income. Prior to joining, I made about $700 total over two years. I had no idea how to share my art and didn't have the courage to. In the last 4 months alone, I’ve made around $7,000 from commissions — and that’s with a small following (of less than 200 people). This program is a complete ecosystem — marketing, strategy, sales, mindset, systems, and community — all rooted in integrity. Being surrounded by other artists on the same journey, celebrating real wins, has been incredibly grounding. Even as someone who tends to be a wallflower in the Q&As, I’ve always felt supported. Jaroid genuinely cares — about the art and the artist. It’s rare to find mentorship that’s this heart-led and this effective. Artist Rise has truly shown me this is all possible.

The fact that Jaroid was able to get on the call and decided to select me to be a part of the program, was such an honor, since not everyone he talks to gets to join. He is big on mindset, because let's face it! We all have something big or small that we are challenged with in our waking lives. I am excited to say that the information in the modules on how to overcome mindset and talk to people is invaluable. I am in a better headspace than I was when I started the program. I have made sales, and I know there is room for improvement. My most heartfelt sale was an unexpected one on tiktok for $1600. I will say that Jaroid keeps us focused, motivated, and on our toes. He is authentic, genuine, and puts in overtime to provide feedback for us to succeed. He always runs over on our q and a calls to provide the best information for us. He keeps us focused on mindset, because we are rising above the obstacles despite the struggles and daily challenges. His mission for Artist Rise, aligns with my why, to create art that heals, connects, inspires, and empowers us, despite adversity. We can't rise or overcome, if we don't put in the work. As I'm writing this, I am holding myself accountable and realize I have work to do!

Before joining ArtistRise coaching program, I was struggling to turn my art into a sustainable business. I had the passion, talent, the venues, accepted into shows, featured in several magazine interviews, even interviewed on TV. I attended networking events to introduce myself to anyone who would listen to me and also Painting LIVE in person every week in public places to get in front of people. My website was ready to go and I could electronically process a sale on location from anywhere. Yet, I wasn't making hardly any sales. Had so much going for me; but something was missing..... On my 1st call with Jaroid I told him I was ready to sell my art, had everything in place & also revealed my struggles. He very quietly listened to me. When I finished speaking, Jaroid calmly said: "Lori, I know what's wrong. And I'm going to help you." I hadn't even joined the training yet, but on that phone call, Jaroid also gave me a 'tip' explaining to me how to properly converse with someone interested in my art while I'm talking to them in person. That phone call was at 1pm. Afterwards I took off to go paint LIVE again with a note tucked into my pocket with Jaroid's 'tip' in writing. At approx 5:30pm same day, I excitedly texted Jaroid to share with him that I had just surprisingly Sold (3) pieces of my Art using the 'tip' he gave me. He skipped texting me back, instead picked up the phone right away, said he was not surprised, because his training works! We celebrated by laughing with joy on the phone together. Once I signed up for the training, from the very first coaching session, everything began to shift. Jaroid and Jonah helped me see my art career as a viable business. The coaching gave me clarity and a solid strategy for marketing and selling my Coastal Paintings. Running my art business as the sole employee, but consistently training with Jaroid and Jonah makes me feel as if I have actual staff helping me run my business. Couldn't do this without them and don't want to. It's a pleasure and an honor to be accepted into this group. Since joining 8 months ago, I have closed (61) sales using the training. This has completely transformed my business, taken it to a much higher level and lets me know that success can be achieved if I work hard in the business that I love so dearly. If you’re an artist who’s ready to stop struggling and start thriving, I strongly recommend joining ArtistRise. Success is possible!!

The training is extremely in-depth and easy to follow. It is a step by step guide o how to communicate, create content and make sales. When I found artist rise I was trying to figure everything out myself and while you can learn a lot by searching things online; it can be very confusing and out of order or just wrong. My first week in artist rise I made 2 sales. These were such great motivation and I have been working with the team to grow my social media following and overall growth. I definitely recommend it to anyone who might need some direction. 😁
