What really drives someone to buy art?

In this episode, Miriam Schulman unpacks the powerful role of self-awareness, storytelling, and emotional insight in increasing art sales. Drawing from her journey from Wall Street to becoming a leading art sales coach, Miriam reveals why selling isn’t about pushing products, it's about creating connections. You’ll learn how to tap into the emotional motivations of collectors, craft authentic stories around your work, and position your art in a way that resonates deeply and sells.

Miriam Schulman is a luxury-market messaging and pricing strategist for creative entrepreneurs. She is the author of Artpreneur: The Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Sustainable Living from Your Creativity (HarperCollins) and host of The Inspiration Place podcast, ranked in the top 1% globally. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Igniting Creativity, and Where Women Create.

Miriam helps creatives position their work as premium, what she calls “reassuringly expensive” so they attract clients who value taste, certainty, and execution… not discounts.

The Common Creative - But Never Ordinary A podcast series with Paul Fairweather and Chris Meredith
The worlds of business, home and play are all starved of creativity.  From an early age, we’re taught how to analyse, critique and simplify but the tools for exploring, ideating and creating are assumed to be instinctive.  The Common Creative is all about bringing creativity back into everyday life - understanding the essence of creativity and making creativity a common as a loaf of bread and as well understood as a common language.
Hosts Paul Fairweather and Chris Meredith are both creative thought-leaders and have been bonded by a common passion for creating and sharing something new and inspiring every day. Paul paints a watercolour of the household object and posts the image on IG “@everythink”, Chris photographs the same beach each and every day and posts the image on IG “@thisisbalmoral”
By day, Paul Fairweather is a Brisbane-based, speaker, author,  mentor,  architect and artist. Chris Meredith is a Sydney-based, business coach, innovation consultant, and award-winning photo-artist.
Each podcast explores a different aspect of creativity. Recent topics have included: Energy, Time, Constraints and even the Impact of Covid-19 (why not?!) 
The podcasts are ideal for anyone looking to get out of a rut and deliver stuff that goes beyond the norm.
