I love working with artists, authors and mission-driven businesses to tell the world about your work — and my 20+ years of experience in marketing, writing and publicity gives me the know-how to do just that. (Check out my LinkedIn for more details.)

If you’re interested in exploring how we might work together, get in touch! I offer sliding scale rates, and am extremely transparent about pricing. We can do a one-hour “jumpstart” meeting where I help you develop a roadmap to get you doing, or we can do a longer-term engagement depending on your needs and your budget. (I'm very transparent about estimating hours and costs so there are no surprises.)

When I feel like I can add clear value, I offer the kinds of support listed below. If you have something else in mind, don’t hesitate to reach out: I’ll always tell you if I think I can help, and if not, will refer you to someone who can if I’m able!

Artists

• Website Review and Recommendations: Is your website supporting your goals as an artist: telling your story, welcoming potential collectors, and making it easy for them to buy from you? I’ll make specific, practical recommendations to help you create deeper connections with your key audiences.

• Artist Statement Development and/or Fine Tuning: It’s hard to write your own artist statement! We can work together to create a jargon-free artist statement that distills the essence of your practice and helps you communicate the magic and mission of your work to the folks you need to reach.

• Newsletter Development & Jumpstart: Are you building a community of support and potential collectors by regularly connecting with your fans? Not sure what to say? I’m here to help :)

• Publicity: Want to get more eyeballs on your work and your website to reach more potential collectors? From finding reporters and influencers to contact and crafting media materials (including pitch emails) to send, I’ll help you build a practical and realistic roadmap that gives you the best chance of landing media placements.

Authors

• Building Your Platform: Getting published often starts with building a platform, showing potential publishers that you have a growing, committed fan base. It’s never too soon to start working on this! I can make recommendations to help you establish and grow your community of supporters.

• Creating Media Materials: To secure readings and media placements, you’ll need foundational materials that make it easy for even producers and reporters to say “yes” to working with you. At a minimum, this includes a website, a book one-sheet, an author bio and a pitch email. We can work together to create documents that get coverage.

• Creating a Publicity Plan: Book publicity is tricky business these days: the market for getting coverage on books is unbelievably crowded and competitive. That means out-of-the-box thinking is more important than ever. I’ve got a track record of success publicizing my own book, Museum of Dogs, as well as getting great results for several other authors.

• Executing Publicity Plans: The cornerstone of my approach is understanding your goals, finding the right folks to reach out to, and creating messaging that earns attention and gets results.

Mission-Driven Businesses

• Looking for help with key message development, copywriting, editing, content strategy, website writing/review, blog posts, subject matter expert interviews, media outreach, content audits, content marketing strategy development or similar kinds of support? I’d love to chat to see if there’s a good fit between what you need and my expertise! For more information on my experience, have a look at my LinkedIn profile.
