Guerrilla Marketing for Artistes (workshop)

'Artists often have a hard time getting their art work out there and appreciated. And it's not because it's not good work. It could be amazing work. But it's because you don't have the marketing or communication skills to let people know what you are doing.' - Evan Carmicheal, entrepreneurial advisor, on 'How to Promote Your Book Without Spending Money'

'The fact is, if there wasn't marketing, the world wouldn't go around...It's the marketing first, and then being good at what you do.' - Marshall Wayne, film maker, on 'Garth Brooks and James Patterson Used Marketing to Become Famous'
