The idea of having your art sold in retail stores across the country sounds like a dream, right? Big and small retailers carrying your work, more exposure, and (hopefully) more income. But what does it actually take to sell your art wholesale–and is it the right path for you? 

In this episode, we’re joined by Katie Hunt, founder of Proof to Product, to break down everything artists and product-based business owners need to know about wholesale. Katie has helped THOUSANDS of brands grow their businesses by selling to big retailers like Anthropologie and Nordstrom, as well as small independent boutiques.

All that and more when you listen to this episode:

  • What wholesale REALLY means (and how it’s different from selling direct-to-consumer)
  • How we stumbled into wholesale and what we learned about ourselves in the process
  • Why so many artists get stuck when transitioning to wholesale
  • How to successfully price your work for wholesale 
  • and so much more!
