In this episode, I talk to Maria Brophy. She’s one part of an art business couple that sells and licenses art all over the world. 1:30 Maria talks about her corporate background and how she and Drew started doing business together, and how working together happens. 11:00 - Maria talks about the mindset necessary to be a successful artist. Having policies, getting paid up front, and using contracts are necessities. Shoot for having a profit. 17:45 - Maria’s magic words for getting payment up front: “This is how I work.” 20:30 - I ask Maria how they balance selling original work with selling licenses. Some really interesting bits about how Drew separates his creative work and business work.
