Episode Description
Most artists think pricing is only about size, time, and materials. But some of the most successful brands in the world price based on positioning, perceived value, and consistency, not just cost.

In this episode of the Art Price Lab Podcast, we look at what artists can learn from how Starbucks prices its products and why thinking like a brand can completely change how your work is valued.

This is not about turning your art into a commodity. It is about understanding how pricing systems, brand perception, and consistency shape what people are willing to pay. When artists treat pricing as a one-off decision instead of a coherent structure, buyers get confused and trust erodes.

When pricing is intentional and aligned, it creates clarity, confidence, and long-term value. In this episode, we explore how pricing works at a brand level, why consistency matters, and how artists can think about their pricing structure in a way that supports both sustainability and growth.
