Hey artists, does your LinkedIn profile have fewer visitors than a mime's podcast, but you’re unsure how to fix it? Well, Dorothy Di Stefano, the maestro of all things experiential, is thinking of running a masterclass to help you do just that.

People typically join an art gallery's mailing list to get updates on specific artists, learn about new artists, or gain knowledge about art and collecting. To keep subscribers interested and improve email open rates, galleries should: 1. Clearly communicate the benefits of subscribing. 2. Use compelling subject lines with elements of curiosity, urgency, or personalization. 3. Choose a recognizable sender name and professional email address. 4. Optimize preheader texts to complement subject lines. 5. Find the best timing and frequency for sending emails, considering subscriber location and interests. 6. Ensure newsletters are mobile-friendly.

If a gallery wants to give you a show, let them choose the art. They know their space better than anyone including what their buyers like, how they move around the gallery, what looks best where, where to put the attention-grabbers, how to create a compelling overall presentation, etc. One reason you're getting the show is that they believe your art will look great in their space. They also have a pretty good idea of how to effectively display your work, and how they're going to sell it as well.

I've sold more art through emails than any other way (even my own brick and mortar art gallery!). If you want to build and grow a long-term fan base, email is still the most important asset you can build. Here's 4 ways to NURTURE the people on your email list, so that they not only stay on your list, but look forward to hearing from you. Artists: Do you have an email list of fans and collectors?

We all face parts of our work that are more challenging than others (i.e. that are just plain hard to do!). For most artists - in all fields - writing an "artist statement" seems to be pretty high up there on the pain threshold. Yet, these statements cannot be avoided when applying for grants, residencies, calls, and other programs. Like many artists, I find them difficult to write; for many reasons, I am genuinely ambivalent about their usefulness and how they tend to flatten and limit meaning. But, there is also real value in having to articulate what one is trying to make. I was delighted to sit down with Polly Gaillard, the excellent Program Director of Photolucida to talk through ways of simplifying this daunting task. (Especially since Photolucida's industry-leading open call Critical Mass is just around the corner!) I love to help people tell the story only they can tell. Our conversation points the way to best navigate this complex question. #creative #storytelling #artists #creativethinkers #stories #photography #grants #funding #bestpractice https://lnkd.in/eyqzaC7u

In any artist-gallery relationship whether you're currently showing with them or not, always agree in advance on percentage splits and procedures on how various sales get made. Suppose someone finds out about you on social media? What if a person contacts you directly to commission a work of art? How about people who were buying from you before the gallery came along? What about friends? What if another gallery wants to show your art? Who handles people who want to buy directly from your studio?

Science of the senses; For brands to be remembered, they must be felt! When considering your marketing channels — Let’s look at how spaces, places and pop-ups can positively influence people. Dialing up brand energy and human connection. Brand spaces are an invitation to connect with your ideal guests, sculpting tangible and textured experiences that ignites our sensory connections, while crafting your unique brand signature. Frankie sums it up beautifully — By layering the senses; meaning the touch-points we see, the movement, materials, light, touch, scents, and sounds of the physical environment….The stronger the memories and bonds that are formed inside us. Spaces and experiences are a powerful asset and opportunity to carve out more meaningful relationship to your brand, products and legacy.
