I got this link and I think it is interesting and a possible jumping off pl=
ace for us to brainstorm some guerilla marketing tactics.
Do you think these would backfire or be good?
Some of these are clever. I like the idea of the business card in the rele=
vant mag or book one.

I agree with the business card one, and the custom sign in your yard -
if you are in a high traffic area. The others seem to not be focused
enough on our specific clientele.

I was a 16-year marketing exec prior to clay, so I can speak with a bit of
experience. Most of these are not the best use of time or resources for a
clay artist. Better to put your money and time into making better pieces an=
d
merchandising them better. Invest in painting your craft show display
shelves, get better lights, so your work really shows well, invest in a
professionally shot photos so that your portfolio gets you into better
galleries. That will go farther then a shotgun approach like these
mentioned. These quirky techniques can lead to occasional sales, but a
focused, niche marketing strategy is almost always better unless you're Cok=
e
and Pepsi and have little to offer and everyone to woo.
