Ever wonder why you’re not closing more sales even when someone shows interest? It might not be your art… it might be your timing. In this episode, I share some laugh-out-loud stories (including one about my daughter’s almost-romance) to help you see how art sales follow the same rules as dating. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at why waiting too long, hesitating, or not following up can quietly kill your momentum and what to do instead.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Learn how delayed follow-up sends the wrong message to potential buyers

• Explore ways to guide the sale without feeling pushy

• Discover why hesitation often stems from self-doubt, not strategy
