with host artist Miriam Schulman
Bartering might seem like a win-win, but in reality, it’s keeping you stuck. High-end collectors aren’t looking for bargains—they want exclusivity, prestige, and ease. When you shift your mindset and your pricing strategy, you’ll attract buyers who see your art for what it truly is: valuable.
“Your art is valuable. When you believe in it, others will too.” – Miriam Schulman
In this podcast, you will…
- Learn how pricing higher can actually increase demand for your art.
- Find out why making the buying process effortless leads to more sales
- Discover why bartering signals that you’re not open to receiving money
“When you are willing to trade your art for something other than cash, you’re signaling to both the universe and yourself that you’re not open to receiving money.” – Miriam Schulman
