So this last week on Facebook has been utterly amazing. In protest of the way that Facebook's algorithms work (or don't work as the case is) for small business and individuals struggling to be seen. a bunch of Facebook pages all banded together to #GoBlue in protest. The event itself involved changing Facebook profile pictures and cover photos blue in some way, and posting nothing but shares to other pages participating in the event in order to generate a larger reach for all of them.
A few pages took it upon themselves to randomly share my page without prompting (and in some cases multiple times out of the pure goodness of their own heart) to get my reach up beyond what it's ever been in the last year. In one weekend I had more likes, comments and shares than I have all year because of these pages. So in thanks I wanted to make them each something a little special.
These are the 3 pages that, with no prompting from me whatsoever, shared my art and encouraged their own fans to come check me out. So in thanks I drew them each a little something unique to their business by way of thank you.
If you have a facebook page please feel free to check out their stuff, like and share what you feel the urge to like/share, and tell them Phoenixfire Art sent you.
If you DON'T have Facebook, for whatever reason (and that's fine by me, you don't NEED Failbook to be able to see their pages, everything is public) you can still follow their links to their Etsy stores to check out their gorgeous works. Follow, like, share their work where you can, and help support small businesses just struggling to be seen so they can make ends meet.
I honestly cannot thanks these guys enough for all that they've done and everything it means to me. I just hope that my small gesture of time and effort makes their day a little brighter. <3
