Marketing Mentoring for Creative Businesses

Helping you market your art and crafts

Marketing art and crafts

It’s not easy being a creative producer. You’re passionate about what you do and your energy is channelled into making, designing and exploring new techniques. That doesn’t leave much time for marketing your work!

And perhaps you just don’t know where to start – should you be exhibiting at galleries, shows, or craft fairs, or getting press coverage and optimising your website?

We have worked closely with the creative sector for many years. From fine artists, sculptors, ceramists, and photographers, through to furniture, jewellery, print and glass makers – we have helped them find new customers, and reach new markets.

Many of the projects we have worked on have been government funded, but we are happy to mentor individual artists to help them market their art more effectively. Here are some of the organisations we have worked with:

  • Design Factory
  • Nottinghamshire Collection
  • Prince’s Trust
  • Banks Mill

    • Marketing mentoring helps artists and other creative businesses to focus on their marketing. An outside, independent view point helps to give a different perspective, new approaches, and a clear focus on the actions needed to improve your business. An initial one hour consultation is FREE, so you can try it with no obligation!

    • “I recently attended a workshop that Beryl ran which I would recommend to anyone wanting to improve their business marketing. Beryl has a structured way to take you through the marketing of your business, covering all of the essentials and giving a great overview of many areas of marketing. I particularly enjoyed the section on Press Releases and found the workshop informative, useful and inspiring.” – Marina Johnson, I-Venture Training

    • “After attending Beryl's course on writing a press release, I followed her suggested procedure and low and behold my first one was published with hardly any changes. Very happy indeed and well worth attending the course.” – James Mayle, Image Skool

    • “A business like ours needs lots of skills but neither Andrew or I are naturally good at marketing so the sessions with Beryl keep us focussed on what we should be doing, and at a price we can afford! ” – Sally Reed, Northgate Business Centre

    • “Working with Beryl has really clarified our thinking about what we are offering our clients. With her help, we have completely redesigned our website to reflect our market position, and target customers more effectively.” – Paul Johnson, Model Logic
