About Artist Marketing Resources

Ever since our blog launched on February 3, 2009, it has been our goal to provide our artist readers with news and information they can use to enhance their art careers.

Artist Marketing Resources offers one or more full blog posts on our blog for $75.00. The post will include a text write-up, your promotional offer, one or more links to your website, your logo, jpeg images of artworks, or your headshot that you send to to us–and as you probably know, such a feature is generally worth about $500-600USD–but right now it is only $75. with Artist Marketing Resources. (Blog posts are better than ads, because the posts stay up permanently and appear in Google searches.)

Artist Marketing Resources currently has over 20,900 followers and subscribers, and all blog posts auto-feed into and appear as a new discussion headline in our LinkedIN group, also named Artist Marketing Resources, which has over 2 thousand member artists and art professionals internationally.

We also share all blog posts extensively via social media, including Facebook, Twitter (5 accounts with 8-13K followers each), on Google+ where I have nearly 3K artist s in my circle, Digg, Stumble Upon, Tumblr, and Pinterest.

Marie Kazalia is also contributing writer for Technorati news, the #4 online news source with all articles feeding into Google news, writing exclusively on arts and art marketing related topics. Technorati articles are typically 500 words in length, contain a news element, jpeg images, and at least one link. Marie also writes for the VASA blog and is a contributing writer for Yahoo! (the #1 online news sources). Feel free to send your press releases to: Marie Kazalia, email: MarieKazalia@gmail.com

Google requires that you add at least $25. to the ad campaign to receive the $100. credit amount. That means, if you spend $25.00 on ads you get an additional $100 free.

The fee for Artist Marketing Resources services varies depending on your images, written headlines, and your researched keywords list.

Dear Marie, a huge thank you for your generosity in sharing. Artist Marketing Resources has been, and it still is, a key tool for opportunities and networking. Thanks to your information, I applied and was selected for a group at the Tate Modern. It can’t get any better than that! Lorenzo Belenguer

hi marie…i read your e-book and thus far it has helped me tremendously. (just recently got my work in an online magazine after YEARS of no publicity) I believe the issue will be released to the public and when it does, i’ll be sure to alert you. Thanks so much!  now, I’m hoping to connect with curators in my area and ask that you “introduce” me to (name omitted) etc…  artist, candace pryor

Hello And Thank You for this blog. ( my 1st that i follow) Congrats on the scholarship. that’s great. I have sold 2 paintings to Xanadu Gallery in Scotsdale Az. because of your link and have posted art on several sites that I would NEVER have heard of. Again Thank You and God bless. Love and Peace Vernon Kilby / Grandaddeo

“Marie, I am very impressed by your persistently professional presence. I have visited a number of art marketing site and yours is the most transparent, responsive, and ‘cutting edge.’ It establishes a sense of trustworthiness that should be a key component of such a venture, but seems to be lacking in most. Thank you for your support of all us artists out here trying to find our way through the inundation of technological babble.”  Artist, Susan Spaniol http://susanspaniolstudios.com/

Testimonial from William Montgomery (I worked with William in August and September and then he had a family emergency and took 6 months off after which we resumed working together:):”Before working with Marie Kazalia I had tried working with a few consultants costing thousands of dollars with absolutely no results. Of course I tried marketing my work personally as well, with no results either. Last Fall 2011 Marie was able to introduce me to a company in the UK who licensed 15 of my images for print on Canvas and archival paper. They are Art Consultants working globally. A week ago she was able to get me a deal with a New York company which licensed eleven of my latest pieces for distribution on canvas in two sizes in Australia, Italy and the US and they are working to establish a company in Great Britain as well. I modified the files so that I am able to continue marketing the originals without competition. She has sent out a little over 100 letters of introduction to art consultants and interior design companies here in the US and other countries. I know Marie works very hard at this for me because I find emails at all hours of the early morning to late evening with questions, check this or that, what do you think, etc. We maintain very close contact online and we are now starting to converse on the phone occasionally which really helps to clarify any issues at hand. All in all, I have found Marie to be extremely knowledgeable and is building new alliances all the time. She excels at web networking, so if you need marketing assistance I highly recommend her company.”

Artist Marketing Resources got a digital artist his first art licensing contract initially with the licensing of 12 of his image for fine art prints. Right away the artist had several sales from that contract. Just two months after signing his first ever art licensing contract with this fine art publisher, the artist wrote to me: ”G. just called. He wants to license approximately 50-60 images from me now. He is working with about 5-6 other companies including Fab.com. He is going to print on bamboo and aluminum too. You did it!”   Digital Artist, William Phelps Montgomery

Hi, Marie,I’ve gotten a lot of helpful information from your blog, which recently led me to join Artsia and Xanadu, along with lots of other helpful posts.  So I am glad to support your web site and receive some promotion for my art as well.
