Why PR is important for an artist.
-
Grow your online presence
Online presence is important for emerging artists. As a basis, every artist should have their own content in place. Having a website or your own social media channels is a must when it comes to keeping your fans and potential clients up to date on what’s happening in your career.
Having third-party sources writing about you drastically improves your online presence and also helps you gain popularity. The Google algorithm loves it when several sources are writing about you and your work.

Engage your (potential) clients
Good PR does not only keep your audience up to date on your latest developments, it also shows them that you are growing in your career and are worth following. Scored a new exhibition? Share it in a press release, let your audience know. Show them you are of particular interest so you have a personal interview with one of the largest art blog sites in the world.
-
Boost your credibility
For every artist, having outlets to share your progress as an artist is a must. What would be even better, is if a third party shares updates and writes about you and your work. Having your content, news, updates or even an interview on a third-party website will drastically increase your credibility and improve your image. Especially when these third-party platforms also share updates and interviews about other (established) artists.

Established artists hire PR firms
Public relations is about sending the right messages to the right place and the right people, creating a stronger brand reputation. Established artists often work with PR agencies to help them achieve this and promote them within their clients’ industries.

Get verified
Getting verified on platforms like Instagram and Twitter can give your career a huge boost. Having third parties writing about you, your work, and your exhibitions is key if you want to become a verified artist.

We will also need any high-resolution images you can provide of your work and/or yourself in the studio.

Why do I have to pay?
Interviews are usually considered sponsored content on our website. We are a for-profit company and we feel that the people who write our articles are artists themselves (yes, writing is an art form), and they deserve fair compensation for their work. We do however recognize that it is hard for emerging artists to come up with the money for something like this, that’s why we are prepared to do this at cost price for a short period of time. It’s an investment in your career.
What do we expect from you?
We will need you to answer a few questions about yourself and your work as descriptively as possible. We will also need any high-resolution images you can provide of your work and/or yourself in the studio. If the images are not of approved quality our team will unfortunately not be able to publish them. After the first draft is complete, we will share the article with you and you have the opportunity to make 3-5 changes. After that, we will need you to accept the final version, so that we can schedule your article within 14 days thereafter.
Can I share it on other websites?
You may of course share your interview. It becomes an article you can be proud of and gain exposure from.
