3. What I heard from you
(example of prep work):
Everyone uses art to express themselves creatively
Everyone wants to sell
Few understand who their customers are beyond “gender”
Everyone struggles with what really works in marketing – which tools are the most successful
A few have success with social media – but wonder, what is the ROI

4. Core Elements of Marketing Framework
Branding
The best marketing that any artist will do for his or her project or practice will be a highly individualized effort – your “product” is usually
deeply personal……Ultimately, the goal of any good marketing campaign is to connect with passionate members of the target audience.
