Want to make more money from your art while staying true to your craft? First, we need to debunk the "do what you love and the money will follow" myth and come to understand that it’s more about what your collectors want. Then, we'll explore how you may be unintentionally holding yourself back and how to overcome self-doubt. Prepare to go all in on your art career and level up your creative business with valuable insights and strategies from my own experience!

“Making money is less about doing what you love to do the most, and more about doing what your collectors, your patrons, or your clients love.”- Miriam Schulman

• Aligning your art with what your collectors truly desire can lead to increased earnings.

• Common ways artists undermine their success, plus strategies to overcome self-doubt and setbacks on your own creative journey.

• Success comes to those who persevere. Embrace the idea that making a living as an artist takes time, and that you must be willing to put in consistent effort to get there.

“Doing what you love is important. But, you should know that to make money, you have to do what other people love.”- Miriam Schulman

Ready for a dose of creativity, inspiration, and a dash of upcycling magic? But wait, what's upcycling, you ask? It's all about taking ordinary, everyday materials and transforming them into exquisite handmade books and art. Our special guest, Bel Mills, is a remarkable book artist and an inspiring teacher who has crafted an incredible online class centered on the art of upcycling books. Bel's passion for creating bespoke, one-of-a-kind books from salvaged paper is truly inspiring. We'll also dive into the power of getting out of your own way and focusing on what truly matters: your audience and the value you can bring to their lives.

“When it's time to go and sell, when it's time to go and share our work and share our message, we have to reflect on the sacred aspects of our soul.”- Miriam Schulman

• Not to underestimate the creative potential of everyday objects; upcycling can breathe new life into them.

• When creating and sharing your art or knowledge, focus on how it can positively impact your audience rather than dwelling on your insecurities.

• You can overcome obstacles and find support in your creative journey by seeking guidance, connecting with like-minded individuals, and collaborating to grow as an artist or educator.

“Remember that it isn't about you. And if you can, kind of get out of your own way, get the help that you need, and focus on the folks out there who stand to gain so much from your work and what you have to offer.”- Bel Mills

I’m sure you’ve seen less talented people rise to the top while those with the talent don’t. It’s baffling and might even seem unfair. But what if I tell you that it’s all in the marketing? 

In this episode, we discuss how marketing and mindset play important roles in your success, even more than talent. I talk about how famous artists (yes, even those from hundreds of years ago) utilized marketing to sell their art. And I even share personal stories where I saw and experienced how consistency led to better results than talent. 

“I do believe anyone can be an artist. However, you need to develop the right mindset and learn the skills and techniques to get the results you want.” - Miriam Schulman 

Why are marketing and mindset so important? Is talent still important? Here are the three thoughts I share that I want you to take home: 

• You need to learn marketing to be able to share and sell your art 

• Mindset is more important than marketing because marketing won’t work well without the right mindset behind it 

• Consistent effort over time trumps talent. All the time 

“If you want to think like a famous artist, marketing matters.” - Miriam Schulman 

I know it can be discouraging to see child prodigies paraded in the media or look at the works of the great masters and feel like we’ll never achieve what they did. I know that it can be baffling to see not-so-great art sell for a lot of money. But once you learn that it’s not just about the art, you can achieve your goal. Once you develop the mindset, learn the skills, and put in the effort, you’ll be surprised by what you can achieve.

Are you ready to shatter the myth that creating endless content will skyrocket your art career? Brace yourself because, in this episode, I'm about to reveal the uncomfortable truth about what really drives sales for artists – and it's not what you think.

“When planning our studio time, 20 hours a week or 4 hours a day should be your maximum. Any more than that, you're burning yourself out in ways that isn't helpful to your artistic practice.”- Miriam Schulman

• The foundation of a successful art business relies on mastering the skill of selling.

• The need to shift attention from creating endless content to actively building relationships and engaging with potential collectors. By dedicating time to meet people, share your art, and make offers, you can create genuine connections that lead to sales.

• Successful art business growth involves embracing the vulnerability of rejection and putting oneself out there.

“You need to focus on getting out there and creating collectors. That's what your time needs to be spent on.”- Miriam Schulman
