BRANDING AND MARKETING FOR ARTISTS
Your art deserves more attention
You are a unique, committed creative who respects the past, understands the present and shapes the future.
Innovating and producing work that reflects the richness of your journey. Nina Simone vs. Justin Bieber. Issei Miyake vs. H&M. Eames vs. IKEA. Not fast fashion. The real deal.
You’re ready to break through to a larger audience of art collectors, dealers and curators. We can help.
We’re Karen Herzog & Richard Sachs.
We’re marketeers, designers and collectors of many of the artists that we work with. And we understand how you can reach your fans online and succeed in real life.
Here’s how we’re going to get it done.
The art of your brand
Great art has a narrative, a point of view unique to an artist. Branding reveals you to your audience, establishing resonance and building trust.
Marketing with meaning
Creating your art takes passion, skill and planning. Research, strategy and execution gets your art seen in the right place at the right time.
Your website, your story
Motivate art collectors, dealers and curators to take action. Book a studio visit easily. Buy a painting with confidence. Gain a new gallery rep.
