Because the creative business must survive and grow, cash and revenues are the company’s lifeblood and veins. Profits enable creative actors to create items with improved features and functionality.
A excellent and appealing product is insufficient. It has to be introduced and communicated to the general population. That is why promotions are necessary.
Producers and customers are no longer restricted by geography thanks to the internet. Manding can deliver glass sculptures to Tempe, Arizona. Meanwhile, customers in Bursa, Turkey, may simply purchase clay crafts from Kasongan..
National and International Exhibitions
Offline marketing strategies are as significant. The actual presence of buyers and sellers, as well as their innovative items, creates a different impression and experience while enjoying the product.
Product displays in the creative business play a vital function in educating potential customers. The Bantul government has long supported promotional efforts for creative industries by partnering with associated entities to host exhibits on a national and international scale.
A partition of creative industry clusters was carried out to assist marketing, so that the exhibition could display outstanding items of the highest quality, which would have an influence on the success of creative industry participants in Bantul..

Seminars, Conferences, Congresses, and Festivals
Aside from exhibits, the Bantul government sponsors seminars, conferences, and festivals to extend the perspectives of creative sector participants. Not only must creative industry participants comprehend the nuances of manufacturing, but they must also understand the restrictions and complexities of the export-import process.
Bantul has committed to joining the UNESCO World Creative Cities Network. As a result, we must continue to grow and progress forward by hosting a variety of events linked to congress seminars or festivals.
