Producing an Artist Podcast with Miriam Schulman (#34)

*~* This episode is sponsored by the Art Career Success System, a 1-year training program that gives you the time and space to build a strong and reliable business foundation for your art. See ArtCareerSuccessSystem.com *~*

Living the artist's life doesn't necessarily flow with owning a business—with gaining valuable business skills that help you earn income from your creativity.

But every so often I come across artists who are just as interested in learning about business as they are in being an artist. And I feature them in my interviews on the podcast and blog.

Miriam Schulman is one of those artists. She discovered a gift secondary to her art—a curiosity about how the art business works. Combined with the fact that she loves to talk and ask questions, Miriam found her calling in her weekly podcast, The Inspiration Place.

But it was a lot of work to start, and it's a lot of work to keep up. If you have ever considered starting a podcast or sharing your story on a podcast, this episode of the Art Biz Podcast is for you.

In this interview you'll hear about:

Miriam's background in engineering and corporate finance and how she found the courage to transition to a full-time artist.
How she promoted her work early on and why she still believes in using a brag book.
The teaching spot she created called The Inspiration Place to collaborate with other artist teachers.
What gave Miriam the idea to start a weekly podcast under The Inspiration Place umbrella and how she committed to making it happen a few months later.
The production team and systems Miriam has behind her now and the coaches and mentors that have helped her along the way.
Why she feels that podcasting is the perfect platform for her to share her voice and build her influence.
Miriam's decision to focus on business lessons and translating them as they pertain to artists specifically.
Her automated process for inviting and booking guests and her advice for artists who pitch to be on her show.
Why Miriam plans to keep podcasting every week and how it serves her in her business.
