There has been some new members and to be honest, it doesn't hurt to remind old members just some of the ways you can Create, Collaborate, and Grow with the International Art Doll Registry. So here are just a few tips.
1. This organiztion is a fabulous group of artists. It is fun to get to meet and know each other whether it is through our Zoom Shylock Doll Group or attending a convention together (and I mean not just ours *smiling*). When we make friends, that makes sharing and commenting on each others posts supportive as well as rewarding.
2. Talking about Facebook and Instagram - In Facebook, make sure you tag me in your posts so that as the IADR I can boost your posts whether it is commenting, liking, and even a share.
On Instagram make sure you use the hashtag #iadollregistry. That way I can find you and share your posts. Then really reach out and invite the IADR to collaborate with your post or reel. That way you also appear on the IADR Instagram page as well as your own... and the reach is fabulous!
3. Your Artist's Studio page is where you can create and show your work on your Artist's Studio page... even works-in-progress. This is your gallery and also where you can link your page to your other selling sites. The Artist's Studio page is used for the People's Choice Event which comes up later this year. It was great to also use QR codes that linked your page at our last convention and the MIDA event. It has been proven by statistics that when someone comes to an Artist's Studio page, they don't look at just one artist's work but several.
4. Juried Shows are fun and can be a good learning curve. But don't stop just there! For the Online Shows all entries are shown in the ART DOLLS Magazine. One may not win their category but to be seen competing is still priceless. All exposure is good when it is showcasing your work
5. ART DOLLS Magazine has increased our exposure and reach through the ART DOLLS Magazine and the ART DOLLS Magazine Facebook page. Plus don't forget our YouTube reach also. Enter your new doll in the Doll Scene section of the Magazine. Write an article about an experience at a doll show (again it doesn't have to just be the IADR's). Show us how you create or offer a tutorial. Those are all free advertising opportunities for a doll artist to use. If you have an idea but not sure how to start it, just email Lesley at iadregistry@outlook.com. We'll make it happen!
