MAKE DIRECT CONNECTION

Published On: January 3, 2026Categories: Community, Marketing

Caroline in the Garden explains in ‘Stop being ‘demure and mindful’ when sharing your creative work’ how she tried something new to get people to a recent show:

“I made a list of every single person I had ever interacted with that seemed remotely interested in hearing more about my music. Then, I contacted them directly via emails, text messages, DMs and face-to-face. I was going to make sure that everyone I could think of was invited, personally, by me to my show.”

We covered this in our recent Escape Pod Zoom call, about talking to people in person, and texting people about our upcoming events.

And this isn’t just about getting people to your events and shows. Do this for new things you’ve got for sale, a new course you’re offering, or a group Zoom call you’re trying to put together.
