She gets royalties on her images, designs, and books, through Zazzle, Smugmug, Lulu, and Amazon. She also sells her art instruction books online, and teaches workshops online and in person.

Based on Heidi's knowledge of a broad range of art and craft sale venues, and thanks to her extensive experience teaching and consulting with a variety of different kinds of artists and craftspeople, the book goes beyond many other guides that focus only on selling on a few sites, or selling only traditional forms of art. The book includes information and advice for practically any kind of visual artist, whether 2-D or 3-D; fine arts painter or mixed-media collage artist; photographer, seamstress, knitter, sculptor, potter, fiber artist, jeweler, cartoonist, soapmaker, and more.
To help guide and inspire, the book includes profiles of six artists who are at different points on the continuum of selling and marketing their work online, with screenshots of their websites, blogs, social media use, and more. A photographer, painter, writer, printmaker, collage artist, and natural perfumer, they represent the wide variety of media that people are selling and marketing on the internet.
