Become Dynamic

Marketing strategies on the Internet are no longer as simple as they used to be. There are so many options and developing technologies not to mention the fast pace at which people embrace these technologies is staggering. Blogging is an important part of any Internet strategy. New social platforms that include, Facebook, My Space, LinkeIn, and Twitter have become high profile methods for getting the word out on businesses and not just for kids to keep in touch. Twitter alone is adding 10,000 new subscribers per day. Traditional businesses such as Whole Foods, JetBlue, Ford and many others have come to the realization that they must be participating on a very high level with all of these services.
The good news about all of this is that it doesn't take much money to become involved in these practices. The bad news is that it takes a lot of time to understand and to participate in these effectively. You must do your homework or hire someone who is knowledgeable that can train you efficiently. Once you become knowledgeable, participating on a daily basis is quite important.
Below you will find a short video introducing the Twitter concept. Stay tuned for further commentary, links and updates on technology that will help your industry.

With the global economic slowdown, the challenges facing the art world are numerous.  Art is a discretionary purchase. However, there is always opportunity for those willing to think outside the box. Those that are willing to research and embrace advances in technology, communication and presentation of art will surely prosperous this year. The fact that you are viewing this blog means that you probably understand the power of blogging and inbound marketing. However blogging is only the tip of the iceberg.


In the coming months I hope to share many of the newest technologies that I'm aware of to assist not only artists but also galleries in advancing their future successes. Feedback is always welcome.
