"Treasures In the Tip Jar" covers ways to offer direct support, what to do and what not to do when meeting an artist, how to write a fabulous fan letter, how being a fan helps you discover new insights about yourself, the benefits of community with other fans, and how to cope if things change and it all stops being fun. Wendy also has a few suggestions for artists on how to build-and keep-a loyal fan base.
"Wendy V" has a rewarding history of encouragement to musicians in her own community of Minneapolis/St. Paul Minnesota and beyond as a publicist, music journalist, speaker and personal life coach. Her venture, Embrace Encouragement (www.embraceencouragement.com) focuses on the musician, writer or other artist looking to share talents for first time audiences or move to the next career level with setting some goals or moving on to bigger goals.
Wendy's website at www.wendyv.com offers practical common sense marketing support for the beginning professional, musician support and resources for both artists and fans, such as CD reviews, promotional tips and hints for fans on how to get radio airplay for their favorite artists. Her work has been well received by artists ranging from those starting out to long time Nashville musicians.
Wendy has shared her "Promote and Market Your Musical Talent" advice in presentations at Learning Annex/Open U Inc. in Minneapolis, McNally-Smith College in St. Paul, and Minneapolis Community and Technical College.
