Lately I have been seeing many marketing messages that are rather lengthy and very verbose. With so many marketing messages flying at us, don’t you think it would be better to be descriptive in as few words as possible? You can always give an option to go to a web page for more information. Let’s…

I am back from vacation and have been waiting for the next topic to come to me. As I was having dinner with a colleague, the discussion turned to the lack of audience development for visual artists, or rather visual artists are not using audience development. The conversation continued with my thoughts about how visual…
