Welcome to Business & Pricing — Rules & Guidelines

◆ BUSINESS & PRICING — What this room is for The business side of being a working artist: pricing your work, understanding licensing, navigating commission agreements, handling difficult clients, and getting the most out of the marketplace. Share your experience and strategies — not prescriptions. ───────────────────────────────────────── RULES 1. Share experience, not mandates. "Here's what's worked for me" is welcome. "Artists who charge less than X are devaluing the industry" is not. 2. No client callouts. If a commission went sideways, you can discuss the situation in general terms — no names, no receipts posted publicly. 3. Keep it platform-relevant. General freelance forums exist elsewhere. This room is focused on digital art, the CKURO marketplace, and direct commissions. 4. Licensing questions are encouraged. It's a nuanced area and the community benefits from open discussion. 5. No referral links or third-party promotion. Don't use this room to funnel people to external platforms or services. ───────────────────────────────────────── EXAMPLE POST ✓ Title: "How do you handle 'use it anywhere' license requests?" Content: "Getting more buyers asking for unlimited commercial rights upfront. I've been quoting 3x my standard price for that tier but I'm curious how others think about it — flat multiplier, or case-by-case based on the buyer's scale?"
