Top 10 Marketing Advice Newsletters from Art Biz Coach
In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the Art Marketing Action Newsletter, here are the top 10 marketing advice articles from Art Biz Coach. Includes writing, blogging, exhibiting, and more. What’s #1 ?
Don’t Confuse Price with Value
The value of a work of art is based on how a person feels about the object.
Your creativity, use of materials, technique, and the spirit you infuse into each piece make your art valuable to you. These things are subjective and can change from time to time and from artwork to artwork. How you value your art is different from how you price your art.
Celebrating My 10 Year Anniversary
Ten years ago today I sent out my first newsletter. It’s been going out every week since then. Today I quietly celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Art Biz Coach. Thank you for being here with me.
Are Your Viewers Looking or Seeing?
This week’s deep thought is courtesy of artist Richard Tuttle. What’s the difference between looking and seeing? Is it your job to get people to see? How do you do that job?
4 Reasons to Cherish Unsubscribes
Having people unsubscribe from your list may cause an initial moment of panic, but here are 4 reasons to cherish your unsubscribers and turn your initial negative feeling into a positive one.
Tell the Story of Your Art Career on Your Facebook Timeline
Dust off your art résumé and put it to use with the new timeline on your Facebook page. Timelines are a place for you to share the history of your art career. They’re not for you to tell your life story – that’s for your personal profile timeline.
How to Avoid Information Overload
You will always have a hard time focusing on your art and prioritizing your art business if you haven’t taken the time to assess and plan. Knowing your priorities helps you avoid information overload.
