Welcome to Gaia! ::


Artist Recruitment

I represent a particular group that wishes to create a bulk art auction for a specific cause. The cause is simple, to stem the tide of massive inflation. We have a plan, and if you are interested, we wish to have a sample of your work, so that we may add you to the bulk auction.

This is my current Project : Still Running Project

Terms:
1 - A payment of a current month letter will be given as payment if you participate.
2 - We will include participants to a guild discussing the plans we are going to run.
3 - If the participant does not want to be included after seeing the laid out plans, just tell us and we back off, no hard feelings.

Benefits:
1 - Consider this a marketing tool for your particular shop.
2 - For the newer gaians that participate, it would allow you to become more known, to gaians that tend to be supportive of one another's projects.
3 - As mentioned a marketing tool, which can be used to display your work, to be cited for your future auctions.

I know it isn't much, but this is a non-profit operation. I would not even get paid in this at all. And I myself will be working at a loss, since I will also participate in this bulk auction, and be paying for your participation.

We will keep things as transparent as possible. We will even show where the gold goes.

If any one wishes to help out as well, without doing art, please PM... <<I will have to create a mule>> ... That is, if you are interested in what we are planning so far.

Thank you for your time.

Good luck in yer search... You can have a look at my arts if you like. *points to either sig banner, preferably the top one*


But some advice would be that a simple current letter is only worth about 5k... which in the real world doesn't translate to much incentive I'm afraid... I know that sounds very greedy, but its the truth as this is work that is created in the real world with reall effort for summink that ISN'T real... so I think you'll attract more artists if you make it a bit sweeter...

Sorry if I sound greedy... but its been my observation that you need to attract them to get them involved...

I definitely understand,
As mentioned this is more geared towards the newer unknown artists around. Besides, it is for a specific cause, and more a recruitment than anything else.

I was wondering if I should have placed this in the chatterbox instead, but from a group decision, it would be best marketed here.
Thank you though for your input, and as you can see, I will be participating in this particular cause, and have placed samples of my art in here as well.

Ooo, I see I see... Here's my website! please check out some of my artworks! I only have a few in there.. but I most definitely have more than this. 3nodding
Oh its no problem. but I would think that you should also be a bit more forward about what you're doing it for. Just "a cause" doesn't inspire people too much.

As I said... my work and my services are your's if you fancy them. And you certainly did market this is the proper place... This is, in fact, where artists look for work.

My thanks,
Well, the scheme is found in a guild, and I am reticent in showing the whole thing. To make it simple, all we are doing is to auction for items only to sell it for extremely cheap prices. I have a sample of what will be done, similar to that letter sale of mine cited above.
Also, those that wish to join even without doing any art would be welcome, just for added input, as we do want to make things work...
Is it safe to assume that you are interested enough to see the scheme so far?

*koff* Sorry... just got back from looking it over... Count me in.
I wonder...
TQW, how did you like the premise? Currently I am selling certain letters for half or less of market value, given specific requirements. This little thing we are doing is a glorified version of that. And, since I mostly funded the other thing earlier, this one at least would be bigger, because now it is not just mostly me.

*looks about* I like how you put things together, X. And indeed, we are looking forward to making it bigger. Over the last few days, I've been working in the Vend (also known as Marketplace) to grasp the mechanics of what built this inflation on letters items. I also browsed through the Gaia exchange, and was appalled at how many persons had to give up on their Quests just because the prices for the items they wanted were just insane. I guess it is, more than ever, time to try and change that.

Ah, feels good just saying it. Hope we make it.
