It’s Friday! Yesterday as you know, we had an #auddev chat. During the chat, one of our chatters, Becky Peters a.k.a. @bpeters99 tweeted a song title that stuck in my head: Love the One You’re With by Crosby, Stills and Nash. Of course this was in reference to loving your current audience. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5IVuN1N6-Y] It…
I wanted to make sure you were all invited to the #auddev chat we will be having this Thursday: Audiences’ Preferred Connections Co-host Cindy Marie Jenkins, L.A.’s own Storyteller/Outreach Nerd, and I will be conducting a chat about audiences and how they prefer to connect with us. So dig up your latest surveys and let’s…
There is a tiny little debate happening, although it might have been caused by a misunderstanding. It has been brought up that sometimes we need to look at the programming, if (and there it is, if) the programming is no longer selling. We also have to look at the marketing messages and branding, the audience…
I was using the Storify export function, and it wigged out. I apologize for the repeated bogus posts. Here is the actual chat transcript I was attempting to post: [View the story “#Auddev chat, 9/27, Noon ET – Arts, Change & Audiences” on Storify] Cheers to happy and loyal audiences, Shoshana Shoshana Fanizza Audience Development…
I have been a little MIA this week, but I did want to end the week with a quick post. In the past, I have written about the process of branding properly as being the first step to audience development. This branding process includes a website. A website can be a slightly bigger budget item,…
YouTube Broadcasts are becoming the next wave of sharing information. I have been busy this summer doing a few YouTube interviews and being a part of audience development discussions in Google+ Hangouts. I’m still learning how to get more comfortable in front of the camera so please excuse some of my amateur habits. Despite how…
Welcome Wednesday has arrived! I have another special guest blog post to share with you. Today we will be considering personal branding with marketing and theatre strategist, Clay Mabbitt. After reading Clay’s blog Sold Out Run, I found him to be quite thorough when he explores a topic. Personal branding is becoming an extremely important…
I hope you had a nice weekend! After walking a 10k, I wasn’t able to post on Monday, but I will be back on Friday with my typical plucky commentary. It’s Wednesday, and I have a guest blog post for you as promised. Today, my friend and colleague, Howard Seth Cohen, submitted a post about…
I haven’t been online that much this weekend. I needed some time away to recharge my batteries (as well as the batteries of all my iStuff). Today, I was looking at ARTicles and discovered that our Mahlerfest happened this weekend. I had no idea! I knew that this local festival was in May, but I…
I am still looking for new guest bloggers. In the meantime, I wanted to consider the “when to start audience development.” This is a big issue for me. To continue my transparency previously originated, my phone is not ringing as much as I hoped it would. I see an industry that can benefit from audience…
