256: 3 Art Selling Mistakes to Avoid


Listen Later

I just got back from a week in Israel, and it was an amazing time with my family. In this episode, I'm sharing The Tale of Two Shopkeepers. One failed to sell me pieces I wanted to buy, and another sold me two pieces of something I didn't even know I wanted. Two very different shopping experiences, and two different results.

Here are some of the selling points I noticed as a buyer that may help you sell your art:

  • Being helpful isn't pushy.
  • Don't put obstacles up for your customers.
  • Focus on the experience of your customers, not the transaction.

"Stoke your collector's passion while they're in the throes of the experience." - Miriam Schulman

I also introduce a new segment to the podcast called "The Art World Remembers," and I answer a question from one of our Artist Incubator clients.

The stories I share in this episode are reminders for the next time you talk to your clients, and to give them an experience that will lead to your next sale.
