I wrote a blanket letter on the blog here and Facebook, a few days back when PTE announced it's closing to let the staff and artists know that they were all welcome to come join our store, if they wanted.  We were told by the owner there that they would send us contact information for the artists and pass on our message.  It's been brought to my attention today, that NONE of this was done... and not just to us, but other stores as well.  We were basically ALL told the same thing and then the owner decided to only help "certain" stores.  You really shouldn't make promises that you have no intention of keeping.  It makes you look bad... and now, I've lost ALL respect for you!

Now, I can't speak for the other stores but I will speak for me and my staff.  We do NOT appreciate being lied to.  We offered up a place for your staff and artists to come since you basically just bailed on them.  Honestly, I don't care about your reasons why, it's none of my business.  All I care about is the fact that now all those artists are having to scramble to find new places to sell and it's just wrong!  Do what you want, but don't make the people that were working for and with you have to suffer now because you're being selfish!

Oh and to some of the artists that were contacted by us and answered back.  Instead of telling us that you weren't going to sell anymore, you should have just said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not interested."  You don't think we'd notice when another store announces that you will be selling with them???  I mean, really???  I have absolutely no respect for liars and so basically any money you would have made off me as a customer in the future is now GONE.  I will not spend my hard earned money on people that lie.

Call me a bitch or whatever, I honestly don't care at this point anymore.  I didn't open my company to impress people or try to win any popularity contests... I opened it because I wanted to help some artists that needed a new home when the old owner of their company bailed on them too.  I didn't like it then and I damn sure don't like it now!!!

And just so everyone knows, THERE WON'T BE ANY BAILING AT ARTISTICALLY INCLINED LICENSING!!! EVER!!!

Now, because of this, my staff and I, AGAIN... would like to offer any and ALL artists, designers and even staff (that includes CT and tubers) a new home with AIL! 

We are a newer online store (opened 12-3-2011) that also sells tubes and scrap kits… and eventually, we hope to do more but that will be later on down the road.

First, a little about what we offer…

80% commission with chances for up to 100% each month

Paid weekly and sales reports sent

Flexibility in submitting art

There is no minimum or maximum in submissions, but the more you put out, the more sales you’ll get!

If you would like a copy of our contract, please email me at mindy_mae@artisticallyinclinedlicensing.com and I will be more than happy to send you one to look over. Also, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask them any time… I will make myself available, be it Facebook, email or even by phone if you like!

AIL would really love to have you ALL come and join our store.  Our team is here to support all our artists and allow them a way to increase their income and customer base.  Let us take care of everything so you can just sit back and create!
