Hey ,
Wonder if an artist can make $100,000+?
Grab some popcorn cause you'll wanna read this word for word.
I'm grateful I earn my full-time living out of body art.
It's badass I worked with big league brands, but constantly chasing the next gig feels more like the dread of speed-dating.
So I'm switching up my strategy.
Instead of trying to land more events, I'm actually going for less.
CUE DRAMATIC GASP!

The goal is to book a only a handful large scale events priced at $10,000 and up.
Now you're probably thinking "who's paying 10grand for body art?"
Fair question!
I'm no longer a marketing myself as a temp tattoo artist. I'm an experience activator.
Creating an entire brand experience from start to finish with a matcha in hand to keep my sanity in question.
This basically means turning a brand, idea & hot glue gun into an entire world.
Think story, visuals, an entire vibe!
To prove it, we're hosting a FREE Fortune Teller + Temp Tattoo Pop Up for halloween, and it's not your average booth.

We’re building 3 custom booths from scratch, designing promo materials, developing an augmented reality aspect and bringing in a full content team to film the chaos.
People start at the fortune teller booth, complete with a hologram crystal ball. They get their tarot read & based on their reading are handed a sealed envelope with a mystery tattoo.
They step into the tattoo booth to get their mystery design applied applied.
Finally, the last booth is a witchy backdrop with a pro photographer to capture snaps for the gram. Cause if you don't post on IG, did it even really happen? |

Now after the event is good & done, we’re turning this whole shindig into a case study + pitch deck for brands and event planners.
Cause it's not just about tattoos anymore, it’s about creating an entire experience & showing them what we're capable of doing.
My fingers & toes are crossed that works! lol.
The full BTS is documented on Instagram if you wanna see how it all comes together.
Sending good vibes,
Nadine
