Art Marketing AH-HA

I have just received an inordinate amount of press coverage from a recent exhibition, more than I have ever gotten, for which I am extremely, extremely grateful! But I have to tell you I can only attribute this to one thing, and it has been a heee-uge AH-HA moment.

First thing, you must know that I have not met, nor was I interviewed or contacted via phone or email by either one of the writers of the 2 recent stories. Neither one of them were at the opening! What I can tell you, is that I recognize “word for word” information that came from my post card. Yep, that was it! A generic 4 x 6 post card with my name and images on the front and 2 short paragraphs on the back. One paragraph was a very brief bio, the other was a quick explanation of the work and of course web site and contact info.

It seems that reporters really like short, to the point info they can pick up and walk away with!
AH-HA!
