I am starting a mini series all about marketing for artists, an idea that came from one of my listener's on the survey I posted. In this episode, I discuss what marketing actually is and the components that go into marketing, as well as how you can figure out the foundations to build your marketing strategy on.

Please download this episode, I will love you forever!

Another episode about getting clients booked in, but this time really focussing on language:

• how to respond to DM's (as well as organising your enquiries)
• how to use scarcity language
• what language you can use in your emails that uses social proof
• content ideas for showing your processes
• flexible payment options that can encourage bookings
• using softer, less directive language in your emails that shows urgency without putting people off

And a great question about what admin should be prioritised when you first set up your art business!

As an artist, our phones are key to running our business, but they can also be the biggest distraction. I've found a way to keep myself focussed during the times I need to use my phone and a way to stop me from being distracted when I actually need to create. This app has been a game changer and no, it is not endorsed, I just genuinely love it.

If your goal one day is to quit the employment you are in and dive into running an art business full time, this is the episode for you. I talk about what I would do if this was my goal for the year and give useful advice on maximising profits from one piece of art, getting your finances straight and how to deal with the pressure of making money from art.

Let's start building your dream business by remembering exactly why you went self employed. Set yourself boundaries as a self employed person running the show solo (or with a little bit of help) to make sure you're showing up as your best self.

Anonymous questions! New for 2026, I am giving artists and creatives the platform to have someone to go to when you have a question about your art business. Whenever you feel stuck on a decision, or just need someone to hash out an idea with, I want you to email me. I will keep your name anonymous and will answer the question on the podcast. Please put in the subject box CREATIVE CEO (very important that you do that) and email your questions to georgie@georgieturnerartist.co.uk

If you ever have any questions, episode ideas or thoughts on what I've discussed, please email me: georgie@georgieturnerartist.co.uk

In this episode I talk all about the pressures of running an art business, whether that's keeping up with your competition, the pressure to post on social media or joining in with Black Friday sales. I also talk about why it's good to sometimes put the pressure on and when it's important to take it off. This comes from my experience in November where it all got too much and I had to press pause on marketing my art business (whilst quietly putting equal pressure on myself to complete commissions!). I hope this episode helps anyone who finds themselves feeling in a state of pressure at any time in their art business.
