#auddev impromptu chat 7/20/12
I had a quick chat about being more available to your audiences by having a "go to them" mentality. Also, the topic of connecting the dots between current opportunities and building audiences came up.
@AudienceDevSpec Can you give an example of not connecting the dots from opportunities to building audiences?- I had given the example of how opera companies are not taking advantage of the Met HD events.
- @AudienceDevSpec Might be a $$ issue. The Met could do it because they can afford great casts & stars to get people to buy the thing, no?
- I replied it was more a matter of doing the outreach programs in connection with the Met HD events, not necessarily setting up their own HD events.
.@TRGArts @padablemont It's a matter of being more aware of current opportunities that are out there to connect with. #auddev
@AudienceDevSpec Yes, and thinking about the relationship from the patron's point of view, rather than a "my campaign" POV. #auddev- @AudienceDevSpec @TRGArts That's true. Not following up is wasting an opportunity to keep in touch.
- @AudienceDevSpec When you say outreach, do you refer to outreach events (post-show disccussions, etc) or contacting them--or both? #auddev
- @padablemont Actually, it's a matter of piggybacking onto their events. I have done this before. No $ needed except printing. #auddev
