with host artist Miriam Schulman
What happens when a collector lands on your website, falls in love with your artwork, and can’t find the price? Most artists assume serious buyers will ask. The truth is, many won’t. I’m pulling back the curtain on why hiding your prices may actually be creating friction, lowering conversions, and quietly costing you art sales every single day. From real buyer psychology to surprising data from the online art world, this conversation will completely change the way you think about pricing, collector behavior, and what makes people actually click “buy.”
“Showing your price isn’t lowering your status. It’s signaling confidence.” – Miriam Schulman
In this podcast, you will…
- Discover why visible prices increase online art sales and collector trust
- Learn the psychological reasons buyers avoid asking for prices
- Create a smoother buying experience that makes purchasing art feel effortless
“Your website is not your portfolio. It’s your storefront.” – Miriam Schulman

So, do we actually have to take all the time it takes to actually set up a store on our sites so that buyers can buy from there…which to me (and I’m sure lot’s of other artists also) feel) is a huge, time consuming pain in the butt….or simply show the price with each piece and then ask potential buyers to contact us to make a purchase?
