Download our FREE guide: Marketing for Artists
We’ve produced this quick guide to marketing with the aim of inspiring and enabling all artists to reach a wider audience.
Most of the ideas and strategies we’ve written about here are easy to implement and action. The recommendations in this booklet will work, as long as you make a commitment to doing them regularly and for long enough!
Sharing your ideas with more people and generating regular feedback on your work connects you to a community, generates new ideas, networks, and income. Once you’re in the swing of it, you’ll find that regular communication with new and larger audiences will bring many planned and also some unforeseen rewards.
Subscriber only FREE events
