20 Ways to Grow Your Email List as an Artist (Online and Off) May 29, 2026 42:36 You don't own your followers. You own your list. Every platform you're on is rented — the landlord can change the rules or close the door anytime. Your email list is the one audience nobody can take from you. The good news: it doesn't have to be huge. Three hundred of the right people is enough to run a real art business — which is exactly why you want three thousand, then thirty thousand, then th
Should Artists List Prices on Their Website? The Gallery Test May 19, 2026 35:18 There's one number that should end the price-on-request debate forever: artworks with visible prices sell 2-6 times more often than the same works with hidden prices. The data is in. The artists are still hiding the prices. This episode runs the gallery test on your website. A real gallery prices the work, frames it, lights it, and puts a checkout at the desk. Christie's, Sotheby's, Gagosian, 1stD
1 Image. 45 Mediums. 10% More Every Year. This Is What Print On Demand Can Do To An Art Business May 7, 2026 38:14 There's a town in Texas called Round Top. Population eighty-seven. One square mile. And in that town, an artist named John Lowry sold a single painting for $141,500. (We toured his gallery on YouTube — link's right there in his name. Watch it before or after this episode.) That's the headline. Here's the part nobody tells you: he then sold roughly $60,000 more in reproductions of that same image.
Why Your Website Will Still Be Working in 2055 May 1, 2026 48:07 There's an artist I talk to every Wednesday. Could be 60s, 70s, 80s, even 90s. Brilliant. 50 years of work. Galleries gone. No website, no email list, no story they can tell in their sleep — just the same panicked question every week: what do I do on social media? I want to tell you about them before you become one of them. There's still time. That's the whole point of this episode. The macro is b
A Greek Warship, a Horse Named Sally, and the Mother's Day Sale You're About to Run Apr 23, 2026 40:44 Mother's Day is 18 days out. At the end of the last episode, I promised you a refreshed anatomy of a properly run sale. This is that episode. Two things today: how a properly run sale actually works, and why omnichannel marketing is the whole game — today, 30 years ago, and 25 years from now. The rules are the rules. By the end, you'll have the playbook for Mother's Day and every sale you run for
Art-Selling Holidays You're Sitting Out (Mother's Day Is First) Apr 16, 2026 28:05 Stop chasing shiny objects. The rules of selling art haven't changed in a century — you've just been ignoring them. In this episode, I break down why artists who follow basic business fundamentals outsell artists who chase every new platform, and I lay out the art-selling holiday calendar you should be following right now. A buddy of mine sold thousands of photo books. Last week he texted me: "Sol
Spring Clean Your Art Business: Cut the Dead Weight, Double the Revenue Apr 6, 2026 33:02 Your art business needs a spring cleaning — and not the kind where you reorganize your studio. If the only thing you sell is wall art at $500+, you're leaving most of your potential customers on the table. This episode breaks down how to restructure your product lineup, why low-ticket items are your secret weapon, and why RIGHT NOW is the moment to act. In this episode: Why a $2,000 Facebook ad c
The Algorithm Doesn't Care About Your Art. Lets fix that. Mar 30, 2026 31:56 Most artists treat social media like a gallery wall. Art, art, art, art. The algorithm doesn't care. It rewards shares, watch time, and laughs. This episode is about charging up your engagement battery with entertaining content so the algorithm actually delivers your art to people who want to see it. In this episode: Why the algorithm ignores your art posts (and what it rewards instead) What a me
Your Messy Desk Gets More Likes Than Your Masterpiece: The Art Marketing Secret 5 Million People Already Know Mar 12, 2026 24:55 You've seen their art — but have you ever seen where they make it? In this episode I break down why showing your creative space is one of the most powerful (and underused) content strategies in art marketing — and I give you the exact prompts, frameworks, and email copy to start doing it today. When we launched a "Where I Create" community inside Art Helper, something unexpected happened. Artists
The Artist's Guide to Instagram Live (Even If You Hate Being on Camera) Feb 24, 2026 39:01 In a world where AI can fake everything, going live is the one thing you can't fake. And almost nobody's doing it. 100 million people watch Instagram Live every day, but the biggest studies in the industry don't even bother tracking it because so few creators use it. That's a massive opportunity hiding in plain sight. In this episode, I break down why Instagram Live is the most underutilized marke
How to Know What Will Sell Before You Create It Feb 19, 2026 25:18 Chris Rock performs 50 times in a room of 50 people before he ever steps on a Netflix stage. What if you applied that same system to your art business? Most artists post their work and hope someone buys it. That's like walking on stage at the Apollo with untested material. In this episode, I break down exactly how the best stand-up comedians in the world test, iterate, and refine their material —
The Coffee Shop Test: Why Your Social Media Is Failing Feb 9, 2026 30:36 If you sat down with a stranger at a coffee shop, you'd never just say "art, art, buy my art" for 30 minutes. So why is that your entire social media strategy? In this episode, Patrick breaks down why most artists and photographers are failing on social media — and it has nothing to do with the algorithm. It's because you're one-dimensional. All art, no human. In 2026, AI can fake everything on a
