About this listen

Read by the author.

A step-by-step guide for creatives to transform your passion into a profitable business.

Whether you’re a musician, photographer, painter, writer, dancer, singer, or any other creative with aspirations of making a living from your art, this is the perfect time to turn your creative ideas into a sustainable business. With gatekeepers no longer controlling the market, anyone with a laptop and a dream can make a thriving living from their creativity.

This is the definitive sales and marketing playbook for anyone looking to make a living from their art. Each page provides the inspiration and practical steps you need to build a personal brand, overcome starving-artist syndrome, and finally make consistent sales from your art. By combining left-brain traditional marketing methods with the tools you‘ll build a confident mindset, take charge of your destiny, and create a clear path for success.

Miriam Schulman, host of the Inspiration Place podcast, breaks down the five core elements in the “Passion to Profit” planning framework to help you develop your art business—so that you can have the time and freedom to do what you love:

  • PROSPECTING: Build an audience of followers who want what you've got and are prepared to pay top dollar.
  • PRODUCTION: Draw attention to your creations by embracing your authenticity.
  • PRODUCTIVITY: Create work-life balance by managing your priorities and setting manageable goals.
  • PROMOTION: Attract collectors in an authentic and non-salesy way.
  • PRICING: Price your art, products, or services based on cutting edge research that explains buyer psychology.

After twenty years of selling art as well as coaching other artists, Miriam knows that now is the time to leave the rat race and pursue your highest dreams. Don’t wait for a sign from the universe to gamble on yourself.

Motivating and informational

Miriam is very energetic and full of life. It took me a little bit to get used to her peppiness, but it was worth it. She seems genuinely excited for us artists to be successful. Miriam shared her knowledge of running an art business in great detail; so get ready to take notes! This book is full of great tips and tricks to selling your art and making money. Overall, I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. I really liked it, but it was a little heavy on tricks to being a good sales person and how to close a sale. All very good information; a lot of those tatics just aren't for me. But again, it's still very helpful and valuable ways to get and keep customers. I still learned a lot from her. If I ever were to get into the more "salesman approach," I thought her tactics were smart and not overly manipulative like most sales people.
I enjoyed the book and was inspired to get my mind and actions on the same page. There were also many ideas that are just good life lessons everyone could use. I loved that she gave tons of examples of what she was talking about.
Great book. I'm glad I listened to it.

So awesome I read it twice

So many great insights and ideas in this book. The examples of how she figured out her 5 passion to profit framework were very insightful. I have those five frameworks written on a board next to my easel. Awesome resource!

Didn’t want the book to end

I learned so many valuable tips, almost thought I wasn’t going to like it when the author got into politics - but so glad I stuck with it. Cheers

I Just love this book!

It has been a huge marketing and confidence booster this season!
Heading to chapter 8 now. 🤗

I have read so many marketing books and mostly were so basic and outdated common sense but Miriam’s book stares you in the face to dare you to think and behave differently. It’s not about busy work— it authentically makes you do better because of who you are as an artist. ❤️❤️
I highly recommend.

A lot of practical, useable business advice specifically for artists.

The information provided in the book is excellent. This is not one of those books that just focuses on your mindset with no practical steps. I've listened to portions of it multiple times. My only complaint is the time spent taking notes and the sometimes dramatic narration. Highly recommend to any artist looking to have a business around their art!

Practical, insightful help

I’ve been following Miriam for more than a year now. The first content I found was her podcast. Months later I joined her accelerator program. Her guidance and advice have been very helpful to me. Working with her puts me in the right mindset to break my resistance and get rid of mental blocks that were paralyzing me. She helps me take inspired action and focus on my goals. The results are starting to show and that makes me confident I’m in the right path.
She did an excellent job condensing a lot of her invaluable knowledge and advice in her book. I’m sure that artists who are hesitant to take steps to turn their art practice into an art business will find this book a game changer.
