1 Listener
Remember Blockbuster, Beanie Babies, Backstreet Boys? All popular with audiences in the late 90s to early 2000s, probably not coming back. In contrast, QR code marketing, once in decline, has become more popular than ever.
It seems like everywhere you look, QR codes (those little black-and-white square barcodes) are appearing on everything - tickets, restaurant menus, product packaging, and more. Since 2020, with the need for touch-free solutions, they're becoming a go-to staple for sales and marketing.
How can a simple scan of a square graphic help create a connection with your audience?
- ✔️ Send people to your website or social profiles
- ✔️ Share a video of your process
- ✔️ Provide details about your work
- ✔️ Track inventory of individual pieces
- ✔️ Sell from your online shopping cart
The possibilities are endless!
Using a QR code is a super-easy way to make technology work for you... even if you have no tech know-how. They can become a creative way to connect you with your audience.
If you're not already using QR codes, you're leaving lots of untapped potential for your art business. Because I'm not a fan of wasted opportunity, I'm sharing how QR codes are an asset you're going to want to adopt ASAP!
Speaking of untapped potential, are you struggling with how to price your art for sale? It’s one of the biggest questions students have coming into the Created to Thrive Artist Mentoring Program, so I created a handy guide that will make it a lot easier!

305 - Your Voice Matters Because You Matter: A Conversation with Gina Morgano
1 RecommendationsEveryone likes to talk about “work-life balance,” but when your passion for creating, your business, your livelihood, and your faith overlap, striking that balance becomes even more challenging!
As I help artists connect artistic, business, and spiritual life together in a holistic way, the question comes up over and over: How do you blend that balance to express your unique voice as an artist? One of the best keys is to develop the discipline of repeated practices.
On today’s episode of the Thriving Christian Artist podcast, I’m talking with Gina Morgano. She expresses her unique voice, quite literally, as a vocalist and voice teacher, as well as host of The Practice Parlour podcast, and creator of The Practice Planner.
She's an inspiration for ways to include practices that shape the life, work, and faith of a Christian artist. She also shares how God can use your creative career to open doors for relationships where introductions with religious labels never could.
Keep up with Gina Morgano on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/ginamorgano/ or on her website at https://www.ginamorgano.com/

307 - Waves of Creativity: A Conversation with Allen Arnold
“...Who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar — the LORD Almighty is His name.” Jeremiah 31:35
If ever there were a perfect metaphor for the mystery of creativity—for trying to understand the beauty, life, and order of the universe—it may just be ocean waves.
Waves can be beautiful. Waves can be rough. Waves can move you gently or knock you off your feet.
My friend Allen Arnold's latest book, Waves of Creativity, is dedicated to creatives who are trying our best to figure out how to step into the deep and do this thing we love with God.
As a third-time guest, Allen is a bonafide sage of the Thriving Christian Artist podcast. He invites us to let these waves of creativity wash over us.
The invitation is not just to imagine but to experience creativity with no ego attached. The pressure is off. The joy is back. There's a feeling of freedom where you and the Creator of the universe are in agreement, “Let's do this together.”
Allen’s big but bite-sized ideas will motivate and encourage you as you pursue your God-given creativity each day.
Don’t miss my conversation with Allen this week and connect with Allen at his website https://withallen.com/ or on Twitter https://twitter.com/TheStoryofWith
