Talent Isn't Always Enough!
If you are an artist, manager or agent, this is not news to you. I am sure that you have seen a multitude of less talented artists succeed while others fall by the wayside. And why is that? I can't tell you for certain.
I do know that promotion is a big factor. And not just the promotion to the fans but that goes out to the 'powers that be' as well. Think of it this way: If someone with the power to grant your wishes is looking at two artists. Both possess similar talent and appeal but one of them has a professionally written pitch while the other has just thrown something together. Which one do you think is going to get the needed attention?
And that is where I come in. I formerly edited, produced and primarily wrote a newsletter on music in which I had the opportunity to review and interview musicians as well as product; I have self published two novels and there I have seen the need for good promotion; I have studied direct mail copywriting and catalogue writing in addition to engaging in other literary endeavors. Now I am looking to put my talents to use promoting entertainers.
Yet what makes me different from all the other promo writers out there? I want to get to know you, the artist. I want to know what you feel makes you and your product different from everyone else and therefore more marketable. I do not write generic promo material - I want to write each piece as individual as the artist who is my client. And I write using the techniques I learned with studying direct mail copywriting and, for shorter pieces, catalogue writing.
What do you need in the manner of promotional writing? Talk to me and see what we can work out. I am more than willing to work with you so please don't hesitate to contact me at my email address of karenmagill@karenmagill.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
