In this episode of Ink Different Tattoos, we’re diving deep into the mysteries of tattoo marketing with expert Jesse Drach from Ink Link, a specialized marketing company for tattoo shops! Join Tattoo Artists Chico Cortez, Gabe Jaksich, and Bloody Ally as they grill Ink Link on everything that works (and what doesn’t) in today’s fast-paced industry. They cover everything from saying goodbye to the 9-to-5 grind to what you’re probably not doing for your shop’s marketing.

We talk about how things have changed, how AI tools can help, and what to do if Instagram disappears tomorrow! The episode explores time commitment, what’s actually driving repeat customers, and whether boosted posts or Meta Ads give the best bang for your buck. And, of course, we break down exactly how Ink Link works with tattoo shops to help them succeed. Tune in, grab your notes, and prepare to level up your tattoo marketing game!
