Do live art shows really work, or is there a better tactic to take advantage of this surge in art sales?

The Friction Inherent in Building a Successful Art Biz Jul 25, 2020

Show notes

Building a successful art business has historically been a minefield comprised of various pieces, including: having a proper website, solving the marketing problem, finding reliable print fulfillment sources, access to mentors, etc. All of these pieces, and more, stitch together to form an art business, and for many it's too much to keep up with – understandably so. All of this friction is the root cause of the starving artist problem. Our goal as a company is to solve the starving artist problem by eliminating these fiction points, and by creating as many successful artists and photographers as we can. Interested in Learning more?

The Retail Apocalypse, Getting in the Game & More Art Biz Talk Jul 21, 2020

Show notes

I want to talk about a few things today: the retail apocalypse, getting in the game, and a little bit more art business talk. So... "Retail Apocalypse" – what does it mean? This is the phrase that's being used right now to describe what's going on with this pandemic and how it's affecting retail businesses. Especially now with this resurgence of cases and more restrictions. Where does all of this leave the art market? What's going to happen to galleries and art shows? And most importantly, what do you need to do in order to future-proof your art business?

Eat Your Own Dogfood Jul 16, 2020

Show notes

"Eat your own dogfood." What does it mean and why is it so important in business? Supposedly originating from Microsoft in the 19080's, the premise behind "eat your own dogfood" is simple... You have to use the product that you are selling to your customers, because if it's not good enough for you to use it's definitely not good enough for your customers to use.

So the pandemic is back. Now what? In this episode, Nick and Pat talk about what this means for art businesses. Here's the bottom line: nothing is opening soon.
