258: Scarcity Selling

During my   one-on-one calls with artists, I’ve had conversations where I hear about their struggles, and I noticed that the same themes kept coming up over and over again. One of these is what I call “Scarcity selling.”  Scarcity selling starts from the lack of abundance mindset of artists around the creation of their art. This is when artists doubt that they can produce more amazing, beautiful pieces. This can lead to other struggles like anxiety, creativity burnout, over-working your art pieces, procrastination, analysis paralysis, and even guilt.  In this episode, I share the story of two of my clients who struggled with producing more art. You may find their stories familiar.  “Is the risk of the worst-case scenario worth the possibility of the best-case scenario?” - Miriam Schulman  What if you’re stuck in this state of scarcity selling? What can you do?  Have a structure around the creation of your art  Create more art  Believe that you’ll create even better art  Sometimes it can be difficult to let go and sell your art. That’s normal. Maybe your piece feels incredibly personal. Maybe you’re clinging to your pieces out of fear. But we need to get used to creating art to let it go.  “We almost always have our best work ahead of us.” - Miriam Schulman   Get over your scarcity selling mindset and have the confidence to create more art, and stay inspired.  Related Links:  How to Sell More Art Bootcamp  Artpreneur Mastermind  For full show notes, go to schulmanart.com/258 ++++++++++++++++++++
