228: Marketing Lessons from Wall Street with Miriam Schulman

2022 IP Podcast - Episode 228 - Marketing Lessons from Wall Street - rectangle (1)

with host artist Miriam Schulman


.

In this podcast, you will discover…

What we’re unpacking in this episode: 

  • Extracting marketing lessons from my experience on Wall Street 
  • What you can learn about selling art from purse parties 
  • Refining your presentation skills and elevator pitch 

There are so many more nuggets to be taken from this experience that I share here, such as knowing your clients and understanding how to present your art in terms that excite collectors versus the way some of us default to describing styles and mediums of art. I share a story about how the host shared her art collection with me, and it’s a great example you don’t want to miss. 

People always collect art that has special meaning to them, and the more you can talk about your own personality, your own values, where you’re from, the more likely you’re going to connect…

About the host, Miriam Schulman

In case we haven’t met yet, I’m an artist and founder of The Inspiration Place, where I help other artists learn how to profit from their passion or become better artists. Through online classes, business coaching programs, and a top-ranked podcast, I’ve helped thousands of artists around the world develop their skill sets and create more time and freedom to do what they love. My signature coaching program, The Artist Incubator, helps artists go from so-so sales to sold-out collections.

After witnessing 9/11, I abandoned a lucrative hedge fund job to work on my art full time. Since then, my art and story have been featured in major publications including Forbes, What Women Create, The New York Times, Art of Man, Art Journaling magazine as well as featured on NBC’s “Parenthood” and the Amazon series “Hunters” with Al Pacino. My forthcoming book with HarperCollins Leadership, Artpreneur, how to make money from your creativity is scheduled for release on January 31, 2023. When I’m not in the studio, I split my time between New York City and a farmhouse in the country.
