Collectors decide before the sale opens.Show each one the work they are waiting for.

A collector follows a few artists for years. The specialist who brings them the right work, first and personally, is the one they bid with.

Example brief

Bring the right collectors to one lot.

An example brief, with the three things every scene must serve.

01 · The stake

The right collector rarely reads the catalogue.

01

Each sale depends on a few people.

A handful of collectors can decide a lot. Each expects the specialist to know what they collect.
02

Catalogues reach everyone.

A printed or online catalogue treats a lifelong collector like any other reader.
03

Viewings happen in one city.

Collectors elsewhere hear about the work late, or not at all.

02 · The days in between

One work, one collector, before anyone else.

From the first preview to the result after the sale.

Sale preview

The works this collector follows, before the catalogue is public. Ends in a request for a condition report or a viewing.

Private sale

A work offered discreetly to one collector, with its provenance told in verified facts.

Collector invitation

An invitation to a private viewing or a dinner around the sale. Ends in a confirmed place.

Artist story

The artist, the period and the place of this work, for collectors who want to know more.

Exhibition opening

A first look at a new exhibition for the gallery's closest collectors.

After the sale

The outcome of the sale and what comes next, sent personally rather than in a press release.

03 · Every page knows why

A Story, reasoned.

One brief, worked through. Every scene traces back to what the business needs.

The brief

Business goal
Bring the right collectors to one lot
Action

Subject
A painting in the coming evening sale

At most three things to remember. Every scene serves one.

01

Recognise this work

An opening scene with the painting, the artist and the one detail that makes it rare.
02

Want it, for a stated reason

Scenes on the verified provenance and its place in the artist's work, for this collector.
03

Act

A note from the specialist and a button to book a private viewing.

If a scene has no reason to be there, review removes it. You approve every scene before it is sent.

04 · How it works

From one brief to every one of your collectors.

You brief and approve. Your Story Manager and ten Story Bots make the Story, test it and hand it back. Then you see who acted.

05 · Who sends it

Sent by your specialists and gallery directors.

The person each collector trusts sends the Story to them alone. You see who returned to the work, and who asked to see it.

Your Story Manager prepares every Story with you, so your team learns no new tool. How the Story Manager works
