Ensuring Profitability in Your Art Business (#96)

You're most likely listening to this podcast because you are in the art business. It's more than a hobby to you. It's your professional line of work. In this episode I want to talk about profitability—what it takes not just to make and sell art, but to also make money and to ensure that you have a positive net income in your art business.

As the CEO of your art business there are things you—and only you—need to be doing to make sure that you are running your business in the most profitable and productive way possible. From running the numbers in your books to delegating the menial tasks that someone else can do so that you can focus on making art, I offer six different ways that you can ensure profitability in your art business.

Highlights

  • Getting serious about making money out of your art business—not your art hobby. (0:01)
