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.

Boost traffic to your website with Pinterest (Skillshare)

Marketing & Communication

Why? Boost your traffic ten fold, or even 100 fold. If it weren't for Pinterest I wouldn't be getting the thousands of weekly views I receive now. Gone are the days of true organic reach from the likes of Facebook where they have killed organic visitors in favour of paid advertisements. Pinterest doesn't do that. Pinterest still allows people to search for what they need, and receive what they search for. This is best platform for growing your organic views by many, and I'm going to show you how to do it.
