Peoples' Choice 2024 Event...

9/12/2024

I know you are in the midst of finishing up your characters for submission for the Do What You Love Juried Event and now here I am mentioning the Peoples' Choice Event.

The reason why is because of the Special Edition of the IADR Art Doll Magazine we will be doing in October for the 2024 IADR Conference.

The Winner in the Peoples' Choice event receives the honor of being on the banner announcing the November Sales in the IADR event as well as any advertising we do for the sales event.

But my marketing mind couldn't pass up an opportunity for even bigger exposure for the lucky winner - by being on the cover for our October Special Edition of our magazine.
Here is a what the Peoples' Choice Event is about: 
​​What to Submit?:  There is a theme for those that want to create something new for this event which is "Let's Razzle Dazzle".  For those that want to participate but not be limited to the theme, then your art needs to be created sometime between October 2023 to October 2024 to be acceptable.  Since the judging is being done by "the people" the theme is not required to be included in this event.

How to Submit?:  There is a Peoples' Choice Event Submission form that is available once you sign into the IADR website as this competition is open to IADR members only you will find the submission form.  This is a simplified form as only one picture is required and no explanation of your submission is required.  Because your submission will also be linked to your Artist's Studio page, you may want to have that updated with any images of your work and links to your social platforms for viewing by the public-- if you wish to take advantage of the traffic to our website. 

Last year the traffic to our website was over 1,650 visits in 8 days!

Visitors that went directly to our People's Choice voting page were over 1,050 visits.  The people actually voting reached over 800 votes.  Amazing and great job everyone!

But another cool statistic is everyone who participated in this event with their character and Artist's Page has had their individual page looked at 250% times more than before the event started.  It averages out that each Artist's Studio page for those who entered had at least 35 visits.

How does this Event work?:  The submission deadline is September 27th, 2024. The Event will go live September 30th ending on October 11th, 2024.   All IADR members will receive the link to the voting page on our website September 30, 2024.  At that point, it will be up to you on how you want to share that link.  That link is how people will find the page so they can vote.  So yes, to get the word out I'll be posting this on my personal page, my group page, and my business page inviting my friends, relatives, and those that follow me to come vote.  Will you be doing the same???

What do you win?:  This event offers a marketing prize instead of a cash prize.  The first place winner will be on the banner for the Sale Event that is in November.  PLUS - Be on the Cover and be featured in the Special Edition of the IADR Art Doll magazine that will be coming out in October for the 2025 IADR Convention.  Second and Third place winners will be placed on our Facebook banners and also mentioned in the Art Doll magazine.  Don't forget that the increase in traffic to the website can create offers of a possible sale or commission from the foot traffic from the public as well.

Who can participate?:  All IADR members that are current with dues and wish to participate including judges as well as past winners and masters are invited.  This is your time to play!  This is limited to only IADR members because of the link to the Artist's Page and our website.

This is also the last chance!  This is the last juried event that is available to participate in if one wants to be considered for the Big Cash awards that are in the Year End Event.  The Year End Event requires at least participation in one of the three prior events this year which this is one of those three.  So if you haven't participated yet but want to be thinking about the Year End... then jump on board here with this event and submit your entry.
