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.

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

The Myth: If you get into a good college, study hard, and graduate with excellent grades, you will be pretty much set for a successful career. The Reality: The biggest thing you won't learn in college is how to succeed professionally. Some of the smartest, most successful people in the country didn't finish college. None of them learned their most critical skills in an institution of higher education. And like them, most of what you'll need to learn to be successful you'll have to learn on your own, outside of school.

Michael Ellsberg and Bryan Franklin think you've been fed a lie: that if you save for decades and invest in 401(k)s, IRAs, and a home, these investments will grow steadily over decades, allowing 20 to 30 years of secure, peaceful retirement. This might have been true at some point in the last century, but it is not true any longer. If you want to get ahead and enjoy a life of prosperity, the authors argue that you must invest in the most powerful source of wealth you'll ever know: your own earning power.

The contemporary art market is an international juggernaut, throwing off multimillion-dollar deals as wealthy buyers move from fair to fair, auction to auction, party to glittering party. But none of it would happen without the dealers - the tastemakers who back emerging artists and steer them to success, often to see them picked off by a rival. Dealers operate within a private world of handshake agreements, negotiating for the highest commissions. Michael Shnayerson, a longtime contributing editor to Vanity Fair, writes the first-ever definitive history of their activities.

Every person is born a creator, but the world has conditioned us to believe that we are not. Most of us are not fulfilled because we have forgotten who we truly are and what we were created to do — create. There is a reason that one of the most fulfilling, expansive, and healing actions we can do as humans is to create using our gifts. The reason many of us do not create is not that we don’t know how, but simply that we are afraid and think ourselves out of it, even though we know deep down it is what we want to be doing every single day.

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.

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.
