Hey guys I'm almost caught up on making molds of the parts that have been sent to me so I'm getting ready to start up the celebration of the close of my second, and the start of my third year in business by rewarding the artists that help me out with their sculpting, shrinking, and 3D printing skills. Going forward these artists will not only get their names in the description of the piece they designed, but also will be financially rewarded for their work beginning with the items that have recently been sent to me by a couple of artists, and going forward starting 3-1-14:
VCA artist incentive program
I've been thinking about this for a while, and the artists
that contribute to my store should be getting more than just
a single copy of the item they sent to me. A copy is a good
payment for those who send me an item to copy, but the artists
should get paid for their work. So going forward all items that
are sculpted, shrunken, or 3D designed for me that I put in my
store will earn money for the original creator for the first 12
months that the item is in the store.
Now I've gone over the figures of what I make off of each
type of item after materials, and to be able to do this w/o
losing money I'd need about 90% of the value of the items.
So I'll be paying the artists 10% of the price I charge for
the item for 12 months. Every month I'll send the designers
a paypal payment for the 10% of the amount that their items
made during that month. I'll put an * on the spread sheet
next to the item that artist made listed under their name,
and multiply the number of * by the 10% amount.
Here's how I'm going to lay out the spread sheet for each
artist:
"Artist 1"
head price 4.5 10% .45 *** 1.35
torso price 10.5 10% 1.05 ** 2.10
weapon price 3 10% .30 ****1.20
total 4.65
Now I know that this doesn't seem like much, but it'll add up
trust me, and the more items you guys make, and send me the
more money you'll get.
