Congratulations 


World-Changer!

You’ve downloaded this social posting

plan because you’re ready to start
connecting with collectors and selling
more art and we’re here to help you.

So many artists spend their time posting

to social media for the wrong audience.
They post content that appeals to 

other artists.

Our goal with this guide is to help you

break that pattern and start connecting
with collectors that will be lining up to
buy your art because they resonate with
you, your story, and your art.

The purpose of having content pillars is to

guide and frame every post that you make.
When using the posting plan that we
provide in this guide, make sure to have
your photos and copy reflect the content
pillars that you’ve outlined for yourself.
That way you have a cohesive voice.

 General Tips

for Posting
Start out every post with a hook. This doesn’t
need to be cheesy, or over the top, just
something to make the scroller want to stop
scrolling and read the rest of your post

Give people a reason to comment. Somewhere

within each post there needs to be a call to
action that gets people to comment or maybe
even share on their stories if it is worthy. Most
of the time, you’ll do this at the end of posts

Speak directly to your audience. You want to

write love letters instead of make billboards. If
you speak directly to your audience you’ll
create much more engagement and provide
more value. In addition, your followers will start
to relate to you more

Allow yourself to be seen. We know it can be

hard to be vulnerable, but this is key to truly
creating a bond with your followers and
gaining trust and respect. There is a line you
don’t want to cross, though

Try to avoid sharing negativity unless you have

a story of overcoming or some sort of happy
ending or positive outlook to go with it.
