with host artist Miriam Schulman
In all the conversations with artists I’ve had, the number one thing that keeps on coming up is the reluctance to sell. I see this on websites that aren’t set up for buyers to easily be able to purchase their art and in their reluctance to sell in person. Our guest today is here to talk us through the different ways to sell and why it’s important for you to also do it in person.
David Meltzer is a legendary sports executive, entrepreneur, investor, and co-founder of Sports One Marketing. He served as the CEO of Lee Steinberg Sports & Entertainment Agency and is the author of Connected to Greatness.
In this podcast, you will discover…
So how do we find our audience, our buyers, and the people who’ll connect with and appreciate our art? Here’s what David shares:
- You need to create opportunities for yourself.
- Meet the buyer where they are comfortable.
- Learn how to communicate and tell the story of your art.
“It’s so interesting how much we participate in perception that is working against ourselves.” – David Meltzer
David talked about how it’s up to us to meet people, put ourselves out there, and make our own opportunities. While this can be intimidating, he tells us how and why we need to do this in a beautiful and inspiring way.
As a bonus, David said, “I’ll be happy to send my book to everyone,” with the promise to have it signed and shipped. To get your copy of Connected to Greatness, you can email him directly or complete this form.

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. Check out my best-selling book with HarperCollins Leadership, Artpreneur, how to make money from your creativity, wherever books are sold. When I’m not in the studio, I split my time between New York City and a farmhouse in the country. I’d love to invite you to check out one of my free resources for art lovers (of every passion level) at schulmanart.com/freebies
