Arts and culture marketing

At DGTLBase we understand that the cultural sector revolves around experience, storytelling and reaching the right audience. Whether you run a museum, theatre, gallery or cultural platform, a strong digital strategy is essential to reach and retain visitors, members and enthusiasts. Competition within arts, culture and media is fierce, and an effective online marketing approach can make the difference between a full house and an empty exhibition space. In the Netherlands, digital consumption of arts and culture keeps growing: in 2022, 87% of Dutch people attended at least one cultural activity, and 34% bought tickets for cultural events online. How do you make sure your cultural organisation stands out in this dynamic market?

Our approach in 6 steps

Introduction

Every partnership starts with a conversation. We want to know who you are, what your business stands for and where you want to go. It’s about more than business goals: we look at whether our values align and whether there’s a click. Our goal in every partnership is to grow together, which for you means more online profit and ultimately a great case on our website. We are a specialised agency, so some channels fit our expertise less well. If your goals don’t match our specialities, we will always refer you to the right expert who can help you further.

1

Step 1

Advisory meeting

Our experts analyse your current situation and opportunities. Together we look at the challenges and how we can achieve your goals. We ask a lot of questions to truly understand what your business needs.

Step 2

Strategic action plan

We develop a tailored strategy that matches your ambitions exactly. This plan covers everything needed to reach your goals, including which marketing channels we use and how we can reach your target audience effectively.

Step 3

Implementation

Once the plan is approved, we get to work. Whether it’s SEO, advertising or creative campaigns: our specialists make sure everything is executed down to the last detail, with strategic advice.

step 4

Monthly evaluation

We keep optimising continuously. Every month we discuss the results, make adjustments where needed and make sure your strategy is always up to date.

5

Step 5

Evaluation & Case study

After six months we take time to look back on the partnership. We analyse the results achieved, identify areas for improvement and discuss how we can optimise our strategy further. This evaluation not only provides valuable insights, it also allows us to build an inspiring case together.
