I've got a question for the exhibition came before.
Had been calling people and offering to make a report on TV, what is a weak kind of satellite TV, also from specialized journals. But it all ask for money.
My attitude to this skepticism.
If my work is interesting and so write!
Or is it a normal practice and have to pay?

Naturally, the advertising must be paid.

Ilya Maksimov, this question has two answers:
1 - "this is a normal practice and to pay";
2 - "If my work is interesting and so write!"
The choice is yours. :D
Do you need extra publicity, it gives you more customers-customers?
Perhaps such publications, for example, will increase traffic to your website. Again, if you need it.

We have a little different than the specificity of the artists. But the general principles are the same, exhibitions, publications, competitions, private collections ...
Jewellery Exhibition in Odessa, there and so will the press, etc., but the stories of friends often approach, and offer their services ....

Just read how many custom papers, well, all as a template, do not raise any emotion. Perhaps it is less a professional journalist. If this article does not cause emotions in me, why it should generate interest from others?

Cyril Syzranskiy,
But now visits became a little bigger, and a few that have already sold.
Basically many people wishing to make an order, but I bravely beat :)
I have clearly decided not to order! (On someone else's drawings, on fotam from directories, etc.)
 It is not profitable, but then it will be much more comfortable in the creative plan.

If you do not have a clear plan for moving - do not waste your money. If you do not have skills in advertising /PR specialist or a corre-forming skills - do not waste your money. If this is not a commercial event - do not waste your money.
In general, if you ask such questions - do not waste your money :D
Journalists need to write and deliver the material (they live with the lines): organize a banquet, invite them - they will come, give them the texture of the material - they will write. Then have their concerns.

Even for the sake of bread are not going to carry out orders?

Familiar. I also occasionally do everything with a clear plan, which he himself had built, suffered to the last comma.

And another thing: if the plans are ambitious, it makes sense to establish cooperation with a local borough frilants pr agent, and pay for his work on the basis of the volume of placed material.
