🎬 Start Promoting Your Film with This Simple 3-Step Marketing Guide
If you’re a filmmaker, you’ve probably heard it before: “You need to market your film.”
But what does that really mean? And where do you even start?
Most filmmakers I talk to mix up marketing, publicity, PR, and social media. They’re not the same — and when you treat them as one big blur, you waste time, energy, and money.
That’s why I created something simple to help you begin: The Simple Film Marketing Strategy Guide.
This free 3-page template gives you a clear structure to start building your film’s marketing plan without overwhelm. You don’t need a background in marketing or distribution. You just need to know your story, your audience, and what you want your film to achieve.
Step 1: Know Who Your Film Is For
Your film is not for everyone — and that’s a good thing.
The first step in your marketing strategy is identifying your target audience. Who would love your film? What do they watch, where do they hang out online, and what do they care about?
Inside the guide, you’ll describe your audience in a few lines and list where to find them — whether that’s Facebook groups, TikTok, or local film festivals.
When you know your audience, you can speak directly to them instead of shouting into the void.
Step 2: Plan Your Marketing Moves
Now that you know who you’re talking to, it’s time to plan how to reach them.
The guide helps you brainstorm ideas for:
- Social media content that fits your film’s personality
- PR and media opportunities (like blogs or podcasts)
- Partnerships with brands or influencers who share your audience
You don’t need a huge budget — you just need consistency. A few intentional actions are far more powerful than doing everything at once.
Step 3: Take Action and Track It
Your strategy means nothing if it stays on paper. The final page helps you set three simple goals and deadlines.
Example:
- Build an email list of 100 fans by November 30
- Get 3 press mentions by December 15
- Post twice a week on Instagram
These small, trackable goals help you stay focused and motivated.
And when you’re ready to take it further, Ramiro AI can help you expand your plan into a complete strategy — from marketing to distribution.
Why Start Now
Filmmakers often wait until the festival run or post-production to think about marketing. But the truth is, marketing starts the moment you decide to make your film.
This guide will help you get clear, get organized, and start taking action, one step at a time.
