#payment terms for invoices

[cjgladback]

That semi-toxic content creator urge to juice every negative or unresolved interaction for at least an entertaining story.

That highly toxic tendency for negative and unresolved interactions to be so incredibly boring.

[androdragynous]

I think a lot of people's advice for selling commissions as a fledgling artist really skims over the fact that selling commissions is like. 90% customer service.

as a small sampler of examples, to sell commissions you have to:

be approachable and professional when advertising and selling your work;

have a clear and understandable terms of service that is either provided or easy to find;

set personal boundaries for what you will and won't draw, AND be able to enforce them, AND be able to do this without explaining every possible reason you have for not doing something (you can Just Say No.);

communicate clearly and often frequently to know what your clients want and ensure you're following their expectations;

be comfortable asking questions about those expectations, and know how to ask for clarification if something is described in a confusing way;

take accountability for mistakes, miscommunications, or delays;

be able to refuse to work for people who are exploiting you without feeling guilty;

manage payment information and receipts in a timely and organized manner (PLEASE use invoices rather than direct transfers)

like everything about selling art is its own post of advice really (I could go on for ages about advertising, and that's not even something I do a lot of) but a lot of people just. overlook the fact that as the artist you are providing a service and you do need the basic skills to provide that service or you're going to run into issues.

Flight Commission Sale! 15% Off total Purchase! Icons $20 & buy 2 icons, get them for $30! Reblogs are appreciated!

Hey ya'll! I'm making a trip out to the UK during late September to go see my partner! And in the process of that, getting flight tickets wasn't cheap, so I'm running a sale to recoup what I've spent and also have general security when all is said and done! (please read further for full transparency)

DM if your interested!

All payments are done through Paypal Invoices Only.

> Google Doc for full Commission Info, Terms of Service, additional detail and prices.  Additional Sketch/Line Art examples can be found here.

> Ko-fi for if you wanna support me in general or buy some of my stickers!

> Check “My Art” on my blog or “TheGalleonsNest Art” tag for more examples of my work.

For full transparency:

I am not in dire financial straights because of buying the flight tickets. I have done as much as I could to prepare for this flight months in advance, but I am also not exactly in a high paying position to afford this on a regular basis; this did take a healthy chunk of cash, just about $800 for flying alone. I'm not expecting that this sale covers all of it as I am still working my irl job as well (some weeks are better than others). If anything, any commissions that contributes to recouping the tickets will be something I am incredibly grateful for.

I am leaving on September 19th and returning on October 3rd (2 week period). I do have the sale extending just past when I make it home rather than giving such a short deadline before I leave. If you want to place an order while I am in the middle of my visit, it will be my first priority as soon as I come back and survive jet-lag.

Artist PSA - Watch Out for Scammers!

Hey artists, is someone DMing you about a commission? Look out for common signs of a scam!

Are they offering way above your normal prices? Are they asking for work/styles you don't normally do? Offering to pay by check? Sending screenshots as proof of payment?

Those are 🚩s!

Be smart and be safe!

-Use invoices! -Include your terms of service with each client! (Adjust per job if need be.) -Make sure YOU see payment on YOUR end!

If your gut feeling is saying something is up, it's okay to turn someone down or ask a third party for help/advice!

Hello! Finally moved out to my own home which means room for taking up commissions again with much less stress. Since I’ve closed them, I took a while to rework some things I was continuously struggling with and mistakes in the commission process I was making, so some limits were put on the pieces themselves to avoid overworking and the entire payment process was redone as well to ensure both parties are fairly compensated :)

I can’t stress enough how important reading the terms are, both because I spent a pretty good along of time working on them and that I’d like for y’all as the clients to know exactly how I intend to go about the process and what your part is in that process and what to expect

Otherwise, I look forward to working with y’all again! :D 💛💛

Terms of service

general:

Commissioner can re-upload the image with credits.

The art is for personal use and cannot be used commercially, claimed as your own work, fed into an AI learning software, or turned into an NFT. 

I reserve the right to post the commission on social media (you can ask to be tagged or remain anonymous) or use the finished art in my portfolio.

The estimated completion time is roughly 1-4 weeks. 

Commissions are first come first serve. If you need a commission done quickly or by a certain deadline, let me know and I’ll let you know if I can get it done in time.

Large revisions that add a lot of time to the commission work will up the price. (redoing finished sketch from scratch, changing up large details in the rendering stage)

Price can be upped depending on the complexity of the drawing. 

The commission will be sent to you via Email

I have a right to refuse any commission.

Payment:

Done by PayPal. 

Payment before I start working. I will send you an invoice before I start working

I don’t allow full refunds because PayPal takes a cut of what I’m paid.

General process:

Once I’ve accepted your commission and am ready to start drawing is when I’ll request the payment. once I have the payment I’ll start drawing. 

I’ll send the sketches for revisions, and for the flat colours+ updates if it is a longer process.

Not accepting NSFW at this time. OCs welcome.

Terms of Service and more information available on Airtable!

I use Paypal invoices and am asking for upfront payment.

More details:

Once I receive payment, I will begin work on sketch. There is one revision session allowed once the sketch is delivered. Once the final artwork is completed, there is one more revision stage allowed. Unless the character is your OC, I will hold ownership of the work which means I am able to sell future prints or merch with the artwork. I will give you a discount for any merch involving said piece (pretty much only to cover materials cost), just let me know. :) Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks <3
