NFT Crypto Art Marketing 101: How to Go About It

Even though they exist somewhere in the Ethereum blockchain, modern art is beginning to appear in the astonishing digital market as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) that can suddenly fetch millions of dollars. 

Selling art is, and always has been, much more difficult than creating it. Many artists, however, aspire to make a livelihood from their work. And there's nothing wrong with it; it's the most efficient method to work on art full-time.

The most important thing to remember about NFT crypto art marketing is that it takes time to drive traction (to your art project). No problem - I’ve compiled certain tips and tricks to accelerate your marketing campaign. 

3 Steps for Creating An Effective Marketing Strategy

It doesn’t matter if you’re marketing a generative NFT art, your hand-drawn art, or anything else: a well-crafted NFT marketing strategy is a must if you want your work to be seen. 

  1. Understand Your NFT Art

The more art you do, the more you'll figure out what kind of art you like to make. Knowing your favorite art technique may seem simple (and easy), like how Erick Calderon (the founder of Art Blocks) ascertained his passion for generative art. Before that, he owned a ceramic tile business. 

All of this is much easier to accomplish if you appreciate the work you're doing. And customers and collectors will sense your enthusiasm for your work.

2. Know Your Ideal Buyer

It is the second and most complex phase, but it is equally vital. After you've decided what kind of art you want to do, you'll need to find individuals who are interested in it. 

Imagine if you like soccer and drawing legendary soccer players in a realistic style, then people who want and follow soccer (football) are your ideal buyers (or target market).

3. Try NFT Art Competitions

Entering competitions is a cool crypto art creative marketing approach if you’re a long-time artist. Obviously, there will be a lot of ‘contacts’ to help long-time artists. 

Even if you don't win, attending the competition might help you market your art because many competitors display runner-ups, honorable mentions, or freshly submitted pieces on their art promotion websites.

The Reality

Neither my nor anyone else’s marketing advice can drive success; however, hiring an astute NFT crypto art marketing services company CAN work for you!
