Metalsmith BenchTalk with Nina Cooper

My Guest this Thursday, October 3rd at 3 p.m. PST on MetalSmith BenchTalk is Nina Cooper of Nina Designs. We'll be discussing her work and her upcoming webinar "Master Facebook and Pinterest as a Jewelry Designer with Nina Cooper."

 

About: Nina Cooper is one of those lucky people who discovered their passions early in life. She sold beaded jewelry at her first craft show when she was ten years old and hasn’t looked back since. When she started Nina Designs, Cooper wanted to build a company where art and life could coexist with commerce.  After 30 fabulous years, she is ready to share her expertise and help you launch your own successful jewelry business.

 

Cooper contributes regularly to many jewelry oriented magazines including Jewelry Artist, Beadwork and Stringing. She has also been published in American Cinematographer and Glamour Magazine. Cooper has appeared twice as an expert guest on the PBS show Beads, Bauble & Jewels. 

 

About the Webinar: Social Media is the hottest trend in marketing but why should you care? Artists often cringe at the thought of marketing or self-promotion. In an age when people increasingly live their lives and make their purchases online, how can a jewelry designer reach new customers? If people don’t know you exist, they can’t buy your jewelry.

 

Learn how to increase your exposure, drive traffic to your website, and build community through social media. The webinar will focus in particular on strategies for Facebook and Pinterest with specific examples and suggestions.
