Steal These Prompts Below! 

Press Release Generator
Write a 300-word press release for local media about my solo show opening June 15, AP style, include pull-quotes and boilerplate."

Art Critic
Act as an art critic who knows my portfolio (see link). Identify the 3 aesthetic through-lines most visible in my work, then suggest wording for an 'elevator pitch' and three hashtags I should own.

Email Marketing
Outline a 4-email onboarding sequence for new collectors focused on story, care instructions, referral incentive, and preview access. Include subject lines & send intervals.

Interior Design
Scan Pinterest Trends + Google Trends (last 90 days) and tell me which interior-design color palettes are spiking; suggest an art series concept aligned to each.

Pretend you're a 35-year-old interior designer in Austin sourcing statement pieces. Draft an email explaining why _my_ [painting/print] series solves their pain points, using no more than 150 words

Nurture Collectors
Give me a DM template + five short interview questions to send past buyers so they'll film phone-friendly testimonial clips. Include polite opt-out language.

Publicist
"You are an art publicist. Draft a personalized pitch email + one-page PDF outline to approach **``** about representing my **``**. Emphasize recent sales figures, press mentions, and how my price tiers fit their collector profile."

Limited Editions
"I want to release a new 24 × 36 in. print at the $750 tier. Assume my audience size is **``**, average open rate **``**, conversion **`%`**, and each buyer buys one. What edition size maximizes revenue while maintaining scarcity? Show your math and give a drop schedule (teaser, early-bird, public)."

Pricing
"You are a pricing strategist for fine-art e-commerce. Build a price ladder for my three tiers: $0-$100 (merch/small prints), $100-$1,000 (books + limited-edition prints), $1,000+ (originals / large LEs). For each tier list: (a) 3 product concepts, (b) perceived value boosters (e.g., COA, artist note), (c) psychological price points to test, (d) recommended gross margin %."

Comissions
"Act as an operations manager. I can complete **``** commission pieces per month at **``** hours each. My hourly cost (all-in) is **``**. Build a Google Sheet structure that tells me: (1) break-even price per commission, (2) how many monthly commissions I need to hit a **``** goal, and (3) warns when I'm over capacity.""

Focusing on Success28 Jun 202000:37:56

In today's episode we talk about focusing on success and what it means – mainly customer success. We're going to talk about it from the context of Art Storefronts and then in the context of artists themselves. It's really profound and super important. Art Storefronts' main focus is customer success. We start with customer success and build a product from that. It's a completely different mentality than most businesses. This is significant because we are not biased with where people should be marketing, what products they sell, whether they sell originals only or limited editions, or only courses. It doesn't matter. What matters is the success. You start with the success, and then you build an entire program and product around that success.

Is the Pandemic Re-Surging? How This Affects Artists and Their Ongoing Strategy.27 Jun 202000:51:34

The Pandemic Re-Surging. What does this really mean for artists and photographers? What is the point here? The point is, this thing isn't going away anytime soon. Every photographer and artist already learned, if you were hurt by the lock downs you had the wrong strategy for your business. As a business owner, you can go direct or indirect. Indirect is when you sell through 3rd parties, but 100% of the time, at some point, the rug will get pulled out from under you. When you are relying on 3rd parties, you have a very risky business strategy. The direct strategy is where you get consistent income because you market direct, you sell direct, you don't rely on anyone else, you make the most money from your work, and you end up with the most money in the end. So with a resurgence in the pandemic, this is another wake up call for those who are still running an indirect business model for their art business.

Making Sure You Have the Right Art Business Strategy24 Jun 202000:28:18

Most photographers and artists think the only way to sell art is through 3rd parties, like galleries, and this is what causes the starving artist problem. The right art business strategy starts with focusing on building a direct art business. A direct business is when you are doing your own direct marketing, your own direct sales, you own your customer list, you make the most money from your artwork, and nobody can take anything away from you because you own all of it. You are not dependent on any 3rd parties to make sales. Indirect is when you are selling through 3rd parties (galleries, publishers, etc). What happens with 3rd parties is the rug always eventually gets pulled out from underneath you, as many people learned the hard way during this pandemic. Make sure you have the right art business strategy and set your business up for long-term success.

Perfectionism Is Poison22 Jun 202000:21:39

There is a major tendency for photographer and artists to over-analyze their businesses and look for perfect solutions to their problems. In this episode, Nick talks about the importance of overcoming this perfectionist mindset, about finding the most accurate solution available for the problem, and about keeping your business moving forward rather than getting tied up trying to find perfect solutions.

Why You Should Launch a Direct Art Business ASAP18 Jun 202000:24:06

The only way to consistently grow your art business is to stop relying on 3rd parties (galleries, marketplaces, etc.) to sell your art. When you own your distribution, when you own your customer list, you are in control of your business and you can actively grow your business. When you rely on the algorithms of marketplace websites, and when you rely on galleries to sell your art, you are in control of nothing and your income will be unpredictable and unrepeatable.
