One of the most important things about teaching is promoting your workshops. How do you promote or market your workshops?

• Promote, promote, promote – everywhere! On your website, blog, Facebook, instagram, twitter, pinterest, etc.
• List your workshops on www.artshow.com. There is a small fee but it's worth it.
• Dedicate a section on your website with everything any potential student would need to know, including a way to sign up for your workshops with a buy now button.
• Print promotional pieces, and leave at galleries, high schools art classes, art supply stores, etc.
• Contact your local newspaper and ask them to do a story about your workshops. You might need to “spin it” to make it interesting.
• Offer a free workshop as a prize to others who help promote your workshop.

Try these ideas and you will be successful promoting your workshops. Have fun!
