Artist & Writer Services
Portfolio & Manuscript Consultation

Every artist and writer has their own path for success and every decision affects their ability to reach their full potential. We all have one chance to make a first impression and one chance to introduce a new portfolio. There are many ways to launch a campaign and far too many ways to throw money away in the process. KIDSHANNON would like to offer assistance in portfolio and manuscript review and resume preparation.

In the art and the literary world you are only as good as your weakest piece. Therefore, it is vital to know how professionals from various markets will respond to your work before it is on the table. KIDSHANNON is well known for providing top illustrations and we would be pleased to give you a professional evaluation of your work.

Items our specialists will touch on include:

Manuscript development
Artwork
Presentation
Target markets
Expansion of market
Advice on all elements of marketability

Marketing

Marketing is vital for both discovering new clients and supporting existing ones. As anyone who has been in either the children’s art, manuscript, or literary business will attest, talent alone will not launch or sustain a career.

We offer a thorough and aggressive plan for targeting markets that can accommodate various budget levels. KIDSHANNON has more experience in more children’s markets than any other firm worldwide. Together with our partners, KIDSHANNON can give you the answers you require to best expose your work and maximize your resources.

Direct mail
Sourcebook
Internet advertising
Direct sales
