YOUR STRATEGIC
MARKETING PARTNER
Your studio is not sustainable on posts and videos alone.
Strategically connecting your digital presence with your physical storefront builds a cohesive, thriving, sustainable business.
HILLARY MOULLIET
With almost 30 years in the art studio industry, I've seen a complete marketing transformation: yellow pages and newspaper ads shifted to websites and social media, then trends, tags and SEO became a big thing, all leading into to today's complex digital ecosystem.
By the time you try to figure any of "it" out, it's changed again.
Business growth today requires integrated plans that seamlessly connect your online presence with your physical studio space.
You didn't start this business to figure out your website's SEO, pull together customer emails and keep up with optimizing every corner of your studio for marketing impact. That's what I'm here for.

My philosophy
Finding time to keep up with what's new: marketing is constantly evolving and complex. When orders need to be placed, boxes unpacked and kilns loaded, staying on top of marketing trends often falls to the bottom of your list.
​
Focus your time on your customers and the community you've created, not tech: you started your business to create, inspire and teach, not to manage SEO, email campaigns and website updates.
Complete strategy, not random tactics: successful marketing requires connecting your digital marketing with your customers' in-studio experience. They are not separate efforts.
Ours is a strategic partnership: I create the marketing strategy so you can focus on what you love and do best - running your creative business. Together we drive real business results.
You focus on your studio and your customers; I'll handle the marketing complexity so your business can thrive in today's digital world.
Set the foundation now for your systems, structure and consistency.

I reached out to Hillary for assistance after being a member for a few months. Not only did I receive a response in a timely manner, but we met 2 days later and Hillary walked me through accessing and posting pictures. She was very patient, attentive, and supportive. The Creative Retailer is an invaluable service!

I just love the graphics from The Creative Retailer. When the content is released each month, I’m super excited! Beautiful and eye-catching graphics are ready for me to customize or use as-is. The variety is great and mixes seamlessly with my own studio pics. The monthly graphics help me schedule posts a week or two at a time, making my life so much easier!
