Marketing for Artists: Learn the Top 5 Marketing Mistakes Artists & Creatives Make (Skillshare)

Marketing & Communication

I’ve been working with artists and creatives to get the word out about their work for more than 12 years. I’ve been on both sides of the fence, as a blogger, handmade shop owner, craft show vendor and digital marketing specialist. I created MissMalaprop.com in 2006 as a place to spread the word about artists I loved. It's evolved since then, and I later ran my own e-commerce shop, where I sold my own handmade work alongside that of other artists.

Marketing & Communication

YouTube is such a great place for content creators. The problem isn't that most YouTube Channels don't have great content. It's that they can't seem to get any eyes on their videos. You could spend hours & hours producing top of the line videos, but if you can't get them in front of the right audience, they'll never get the traction they need. That means barely any views, let alone subscribers.
