SOCIAL MEDIA

WHAT PLATFORM IS
BEST FOR MY BRAND?
Instagram:
Instagram has become one of the Internet’s most popular social
networks. The photo-sharing service is a great platform for
urban artists to show their work and for followers to get hooked on
peeking into their creative process.
Enabling artists to present their works to a diverse and large
audience and allowing a direct communication with the collectors,
Instagram is becoming more popular as a means for showcasing fresh
artworks and often acts as an art dealer.

TRAFFIC DRIVING
STRATEGIES
Brand Awareness:
A strong Platform Strategy to
build a NEW audience
Audience Engagement:
Great content consistently
posted & shared to keep them
coming back
Audience Development:
Using organic & paid media to
reach your target audience
Call To Action:
Strong sell to create
conversions
Conversions &
ROI
Relevant
Content
That is uniquely and
inherently sharable and
represents the brand:
Thought leadership,
blogging published work,
quotes from great
leaders, great career
advice, video,
infographics,
exciting visuals, memes,
news, upcoming events
and more.
Sharing /
Partnering
Re-tweeting, engaging, liking,
following, partnering on
content (backscratching) with
friends and family, partners,
potential partners, peers,
wanna’ be’s, heroes and
even the competition.
This includes monitoring
accounts for positive and
negative sentiment, engaging
with the audience and
capitalizing on those with
larger and differing
audiences from ours.
How We Do This: A Four Pronged Approach
Why Follow?
What makes your brand
a brand you want to
follow?
What makes it great and
smart and interesting and
newsworthy and quotable
and funny and cool and
fearless and badass?
Let’s get some “Likes and
“LOVES!”
Call To Action
The “call to action” is where we
use all of the last three pieces
to illicit a conversion. The
audience knows the brand.
They know we have great
content and are respected (just
look at those numbers!).
Now is the time to push the
conversion – be it a sign up for
more info, attendance of a
seminar or buying a book – we
can now direct them to where
they need to be to make a
simple and direct buy.

AUDIENCE STRATEGY
& RESULTS
1. Audience #1
Core followers in the ARTS community, who are highly likely to participate —> high
conversion rate to applicant, easier to reach via organic means. This is your core
audience that will follow/convert without paid means.
2. Audience #2 (informed by analytics & targeting)
New audiences outside YOUR traditional reach, who would be highly engaged and
interested in the product (but they don’t know you yet). They will discover you via
paid social, an extended network of ARTISTS using press, partnerships and other
sponsored activity.
