Nice card design you\u2019ve got there. Be a shame if nobody saw it.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve perfected the style, finalised the colours and uploaded it to the Scribbler site (remember to upload in RGB!), and now you get to show your baby off.<\/p>\n
Be prepared to be your biggest fan, because we\u2019re going to guide you on how best to market your lovely card designs.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a bit like LinkedIn, only not super wanky.<\/p>\n
Honestly, if your friends and family aren\u2019t already your biggest fans, you need to get new ones. Yes, that might involve replacing your parents. Soz.<\/p>\n
Send them your new designs and ask them for support by sharing on social media, to their own friends, extended family members (even though Uncle Terry doesn\u2019t even know what a \u2018Scribbler\u2019 is).<\/p>\n
If they really cared about you, they\u2019d buy your designs from the website. Not only does this give you a little bit of pocket money, but it also helps push your design up the rankings for even more eyes to see.<\/p>\n
Basically, you\u2019ve got something to be proud of, so show it off to everyone who\u2019ll look at it!<\/p>\n
Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X (Twitter, whatever the f it\u2019s called), Tinder, Pinterest, Bebo, MySpace. Instead of resharing puppy videos, use your social media accounts to show off your impeccable talent.<\/p>\n
Tag us @scribblercards and use #scribblerdesigners so we can repost and share the love, too!<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t overthink the caption, either. Here are some ideas:<\/p>\n
-Look what just went live on @ScribblerCards \ud83d\udc40\ud83c\udf89
\n-Buy my card so I can pay my rent x
\n-If you don\u2019t buy my card, we\u2019re not friends.<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t forget to engage with your audience, either! Reply to comments, even if it\u2019s just with an emoji.<\/p>\n
Add a link in bio to your social accounts so people can find your designs easily. Honestly? People are lazy, you need to help them out as much as possible.<\/p>\n
Use linktree to create multiple links!<\/p>\n
Engage with the community<\/p>\n
The design community is lovely, we should know, we work with them every single day.<\/p>\n
Many other creators in the greetings card community will share your sense of style, design and humour, so reach out to them.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ll be able to offer advice and strategies to ensure your designs get as many sales as possible. In fact, they\u2019ll know better than us – maybe they should\u2019ve written this?<\/p>\n
Follow them on social media and drop them a nice lil DM!<\/p>\n
Got a Halloween card? Christmas? Valentine’s Day with the word \u201cfuck\u201d on it? Start plugging those in advance – people don\u2019t buy cards the day of, they panic-buy the week before.<\/p>\n
Remind them. Gently. Or aggressively. Up to you.<\/p>\n
Marketing doesn\u2019t have to be sleazy, salesy or soul-destroying. It\u2019s just sharing the cool stuff you made, with a sprinkle of your great personality.<\/p>\n
So get out there. Be loud. Be proud. And don\u2019t forget to tag us\u2014we love showing off your genius.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
