I’m slowly re-connecting with my arts community. Need to step it up some so people don’t think I’ve fallen off the face of the earth!

I December, ’09, the video I made to introduce the Group, secured the #3 & #5 positions on the 1st page of Google Search for the keyword phrase or longtailed keyword that I chose for us. At that time I think there were at least 5M entries for that particular phrase. I think we’re still holding the #1 position for our longtailed keyword.

I have a couple of friends I’m working with to see if I can get a ‘rinse and repeat system’ for myself that will deliver the same results all the time. When I get that, I’ll be ready to teach ad help others!

Marketing seems to be one of the main stumbling blocks for a lot of Artists and SBOs. Not all are having that problem, but enough have commented that they can’t seem to get enough traffic to their website, if they have a website. I realized it was an area that I really needed to improve in. Besides being unfamiliar territory I finally realized why I was so bad at it. True Internet Marketing today, like the Social Networking sites, requires that you build relationships. If you’re a person who stays mostly to themself, like I do, it’s a real stretch. . . . like step outside the box and walk down the block a bit! I love meeting and talking with new people, but I have to learn how to stay in touch. It’s all about sharing interesting little details about your life, letting people get to know you. For a private person that’s not the easiest thing to do naturally. But it’s not impossible! I gladly accept the challenge; my mission demands it!

This is going to be an interesting Holiday Season, I wish you all the best in selling your art. It time to pull all your marketing tricks out of the bag. Good Luck!
