Agentry is an arts marketing micro-consultancy that supports artists, arts organisations and groups to introduce marketing strategy and optimise their marketing communications efforts – whether IRL, URL or hybrid (in-person, online or both). Elliott Bledsoe (he/him) runs Agentry, an arts marketing micro-consultancy working nationally and based in Meanjin (also known as Brisbane) on Turrbal, Jagera and Yugarapul Country. Agentry supports artists, arts organisations and groups to introduce marketing strategy and optimise their marketing communications efforts – whether IRL, URL or hybrid (in-person, online or both). Elliott does this because he knows that increased digital competency, confidence and curiosity in the arts enables all Australians to access, enjoy and participate in diverse arts experiences. Through Agentry, Elliott has worked with ArtsHub, the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT), Brisbane Chamber Choir, the National Library of Australia, Brisbane Open House and many others. Agentry can help you with marketing communications strategy, integrated marketing communications (IMC), social media content, social media advertising, copywriting, website content, search engine optimisation (SEO), search engine advertising (SEA), web and app development, marketing public relations (MPR), data gathering, data analysis, business intelligence, project management, events management, digital experimentation and more. Through collaboration and co-design he helps artists and organisations to build an informed strategic layer to their marketing activities which supports marketing planning, content creation, scheduling, measurement and evaluation. Before starting Agentry, Elliott held marketing and content positions with the Queensland Writers Centre, ABC Radio National, the Australia Council for the Arts, Regional Arts Australia and others. Relatedly, Elliott also has extensive experience in copyright, with a focus on the interplay between rights and creative practice.
