Week 3

Everything is alright this week. We are still doing the construction work and waiting for the information of artwork from artists. For me, I am still focusing on marketing to help them do some marketing research such as Media research.  

We got some Chinese artists lists which were picked form 50 artists. The majority work for our group is to prepare their advertise information which we need to promote about the exhibition to the public once the artist has been chosen. We did these research form different kinds of media channels such as Chinese community magazines, local newspaper, art magazine, online marketing etc. At the same time, we also need to find out the contact number as well as the price of the media agent advertisement department. So we can contact them when we wish to advertise this artist. The work all we did is also in a previously part of exhibition process that we can provide more useful information for artists. For example, one of Chinese artists Ah Xian was advertised form online marketing by Australia Art Auction Records. The monthly fee by subscription is $22.finally we can compare the price of different advertisement department. the biggest problem is that sometimes it is difficult to find the price beacuse they do not reveal unless I log in.

so after we received all the information, the manager planned to advertise somewhere in China. consequently ,I have got an challenge that I was ask for making a phone call to contact with the agent advertisement department in China due to my first language is mandarin. Although I was really happy I can make a contribution to my gallery, to some extent, I felt much stressful and be nervous.
