Does this sound like you?

  • You dread selling your art or craft because you don’t want to seem too pushy.
  • You avoid emailing your list because you “don’t want to bother people."
  • You feel guilty charging what you need to charge to make a living.  
  • You question the value of what you do because “the world doesn’t need more stuff” or “art doesn’t really matter in times like these."

If this is you, know that you're not alone! So many artists and makers experience these types of doubts! (That's why I created this course!)

Look, it's not your fault!

We live in a society that bombards us with messages about how art is frivolous, artists never make any money, marketing always bothers people, and how we could be spending our time doing something more valuable.

But I call BS on all of that! And if you're reading this, there's something I need you to know:

Your work is awesome and beautiful and amazing and the world deserves to know about it!! (And you deserve to get paid well for making it!)

But I know that for many of you, just hearing that message isn’t enough. You’ve got to believe it.

Here’s the deal:

If you really want to grow your business as an artist and maker, you’ve got to get your head on straight! You’ve got to believe, deep down in your core, that your products bring value to the world and that they are worth paying for! Until you do, you’re always going to half-ass your marketing and self-sabotage your sales.

That's the bad news.

But here's the good news!

You can bust through your limiting beliefs, fall in love with your art, craft, or handmade products, and learn to market in a way that feels good to YOU and your customers!

What people are saying...

"I was literally crying (yes, really actually crying) to a friend yesterday about being stuck not understanding the value of my art. I even used the word "frivolous". I felt totally stuck. Today after having done three exercises, I'm starting to feel great.  I am now feeling worlds better, and no longer feel blocked. YAY!”

-Laura Shape, Viv & Edie

Hi, I'm Megan Auman, artist, metalsmith, and educator!

I've spent my life around art. My mother was a painter and I grew up taking drawing classes and going to museums. I have a BFA and an MFA in Metalsmithing. I've taught art for years. I freaking love art.

And yet none of that has made me immune to the mental roadblocks that impact artists and makers who want to sell their work. Just like you, I've had some serious moments of doubt throughout my creative career - everything from "shouldn't I be doing something more valuable with my life?" to "is my work really worth that much?"

But fortunately for you, I've also done the deep work to find and articulate the value of what I do. And along the way, I've developed some pretty strong beliefs about the power of art and handmade goods to impact the world. I've also coached numerous artists and makers to help them see the value in their art as well.

And in Sell Without Shame, I want to help you do the same! I want you to feel, deeply, that not only does art have value to the world, but that YOUR art has value. And I want you to take that understanding and turn it into sales confidence!

Sell Without Shame features seven modules that walk you through everything from mindset to marketing to help you learn how to sell your art, craft, or handmade products with confidence!

We’ll start by doing the deep introspective work that so many traditional programs on marketing and selling are missing.  You’ll learn to let go of limiting beliefs and find the cultural need for what you make.  You’ll identify what really makes your products great (hint: it’s not because they “solve a problem”) and you’ll learn to speak a more sensory and emotional sales language. And you’ll get real about the guilt and money blocks that keep you from selling with confidence.

Once you’ve done the inner work, we’ll pivot to the practical.  The final four modules will focus on selling in specific places - we’ll start with selling on your website, which includes not only your copy, but really using your product photography to sell.  Then we’ll talk about the most powerful tool for selling your work - email.  We’ll talk about selling over social, and then we’ll dive into the newest frontier of selling online - video.

Module 1: Money Mindsets

Module 2: Find the Value in Your Art

Module 3: Articulate the Value in Your Art

Module 4: Sell on Your Website

Module 5: Sell Over Email

Module 6: Sell via Social

Module 7: Sell via Video

When you join, you'll get instant access to all seven modules to work through at whatever pace works for you!  And you’ll have the chance to ask questions and get feedback in our private online classroom.  Plus, you’ll have lifetime access to the course material, so you can work through it anytime your confidence needs a boost! (And no worries if it takes you a week, a month, or a year to work through the material. There's no cut-off on when I stop giving feedback. I'll be here to answer questions whenever you have them!)

So what are you waiting for? I believe the world needs your work, and it’s time you did too!!

"OMFG... Megan!  I have just finished listening to Part 1 of Module 2 and I cannot tell you how relieved I feel already!  You are making total sense and I actually feel physically relieved to know that I don't have to button hole myself into some garbage sell which to date has felt like giving up my soul! Feeling happy thoughts and not anxiety about marketing.!!”
