The Art Marketing Podcast

Northern California oil painter Terry Sauve joins the Art Marketing Podcast to share how she's crushing it in what many are calling a tough economic year. Terry breaks down her path to a record-breaking $276,000 in    sales — including $28,000 from her website alone and $23,000 in print sales. She talks about starting over at 29 after her mom said "I always thought you'd be an artist," training at the Academy of Art in San Francisco   with masters like Brian Blood and Craig Nelson, and the slow-and-steady grind that replaced her decade-long wait to "be discovered." Terry gets real about selling $25 matted prints that brought tears to collectors'   eyes, saying yes to more shows during uncertain times, and why the path to success isn't a meteoric rise — it's doing "the next right thing" over and over again.   ---   Links Mentioned   - https://superwhisper.com/ — AI-powered voice-to-text for Mac & iPhone.

Here's an engaging episode intro for your podcast show notes: Episode Intro: Q4 is coming fast, and just like elite surfers who train all year for that monster swell, creative entrepreneurs need to be ready when the holiday buying season hits. But here's the thing – while those surfers need to maintain peak physical condition year-round, your marketing prep is actually much simpler (and thankfully doesn't involve cold plunges or giving up carbs). In this episode, we're diving deep into the one marketing channel you actually own and control: your email list. While social media algorithms can throttle your reach and platforms can change their rules overnight, email remains the steady workhorse of creative businesses – if you know how to use it right. We'll cover the essential "Great Email Roundup" (hint: you have way more email addresses scattered around than you think), why getting people to reply to your emails matters more than you realize, and how to tastefully reach out to friends and family without feeling like that cringy life insurance salesperson we all know. Plus, I'll share why you need to up your email frequency NOW – yes, even if it makes you uncomfortable – and specific strategies for capturing more emails before the holiday rush begins. Whether you're at the "what's marketing again?" stage or you're already sending regular emails, this episode will help you level up your email game for the most important selling season of the year. Because unlike those surfers, we know exactly when our big wave is coming – and there's no excuse for sitting on the beach watching it pass by.
