To thrive in the fast-paced, digitally-driven world, art brands including galleries, art magazines, and artists need to harness the potential of content marketing by creating content that is not only informative, engaging, well-organised, and aesthetically cohesive, but also resonates with their target audience. Employing impactful digital marketing tactics whilst being aware of the best art marketing practices will make a notable difference to your business.
Content marketing is all about storytelling, showing your passion, and revealing your expertise and insights, whilst providing value for your readers and viewers. Content marketing doesn’t feel like marketing, because it focuses on sharing your vision and enriching people’s lives, whilst also building your brand loyalty by allowing your audience to relate with you and form an emotional connection. Your content doesn’t have to strive to appeal to everyone: identify your target audience and focus on your niche, but don’t be afraid to explore and leverage multiple types of content and different platforms.
Remember, whereas it’s important to use various channels and content formats to connect with and build a loyal audience by sharing your story, inspiration, knowledge, behind-the-scenes, views on news, additional services and projects, exhibitions, and so on, don’t feel like you have to disclose everything – especially as an artist, it’s understandable if you’d rather provide tantalising, elusive glimpses into your art and partial clues to maintain an aura of mystery surrounding your work. As an art business owner in general, focusing on quality and substance is the optimal approach. The key is to offer real value to your audience and make them feel like they are a part of your world, or that your inner realities meaningfully intersect. Make sure your content is well-written, intriguing, visually striking, recognisable, and shareable. The balance between revealing and concealing is up to you and what feels authentically on-brand for you.
