A little image to remind us all of the pressures some people feel in life…especially when they get in, over their head into debt. A readvertising concept by no frills* art. Available as a tee here…
This is also available with the design in plain black – looks better on some of the lighter/brighter colours.
Re – did this for the lighter T Shirts (but have made it available in most colours). It’s a little different from the original design – made the handle a bit longer and took the blur off the MCard.
A wallet, or billfold, is a pocket-sized flat case used to carry personal items such as cash, credit cards and driver’s licenses for frequent quick access. Wallets are generally made of leather or fabrics such as PVC. The modern bi-fold wallet with multiple card slots achieved its uniform standard size in the early 1950s with the introduction of the first credit cards in 1951. Wallet design remained mostly unchanged throughout most of the late 20th century, while today wallet design has exploded into myriad shapes, designs, and colors from dozens of designers.

Empower Others To Sell your work It can be emotionally difficult to talk yourself up and sell your own work directly to a customer. But it’s easy for other people who like and believe in what you do to tell customers how great your art is. Give family and friends a portfolio of your work and make it easy for them to sell your work for you, including handling payment. Give them order forms, show them how to buy your work from RedBubble, give them information on you and your art to give away, make sure they have really good photos of what the products look like or physical samples. Remember, these people are doing you a favor so make sure they are not under pressure to sell. Of course a financial incentive to close a sale never goes astray and gives people an incentive. LayBy / LayAway There are many customers out there who really want to make a purchase but are still a few days away from pay day or need some time to save up enough money. Offering to LayAway your work means that these people are not excluded from buying. Always always always document your layaway terms and conditions and make sure a copy is signed. Most countries have rules about layaway/layby so make sure you are abiding by them. For example, almost all layaways will require a cancellation agreement. Tip: Order the print once the base price has been paid for so you are never out of pocket. Deposit + Balance Probably one of the more common methods for accepting payment. A customer pays a deposit to secure the product and then pays the balance upon collecting the item. Deposits can range from 10% to 50% of the total cost. Make sure you give receipts with outstanding balances recorded (and always keep a copy for yourself). If you can cover your expenses in the deposit amount, that is great. If not, why not include a 3 week production and delivery time so you are never out of pocket. (you can order the print after being paid) Accept Different Payment Methods RedBubble has the advantage of an online checkout where credit cards and paypal can be used. Of course when you are selling your work face to face, sending someone to a website doesn’t really make sense when they have their wallet right now. Creditcards, Debit Cards & Eftpos: Most banks will allow you to accept credit or debit transaction into a business account. Depending on the frequency of these transactions, you may use the telephone to authorize payments, or a machine. Cash: Many people like to use cash. Just make sure you keep it somewhere safe until you can deposit it, and always keep copies of receipts. A Way Out / Give people a cooling off period in which to cancel a sale, have an exit clause in your layaway agreements, and document a returns policy. A customer who doesn’t feel locked in is more likely to buy from you, and a customer who has a good experience when returning something is more likely to buy from you in the future. It’s relatively common practice for deposits to be not refundable, or for canceled layaways to have a cancellation fee. These measures protect you, but still give your customer freedom to back out without feeling like they have lost everything. Offering to exchange items means you still get the sale, and the appreciation of the customer. Jo Images used with permission.

The majority of us, Americans, are victims of self-induced slavery. Our quest for the American dream has left many of us with refinanced mortgages, alarming student loan balances, and outrageous credit card debt. Many of us have recently realized that years, maybe decades, will pass before we see an end to our financial grief. We must accept the fact that we are 21st century American slaves—serving our masters (creditors) until our freedom from debt is paid in full. This t-shirt is a semi-humorous way of expressing a serious situation plaguing America today. It particularly targets credit card debt.

A montage of some of my digital artwork. Recently I recieved letters from the Credit card companies which I have cards with. These letters told me in so many frosting covered words that we are jacking up your rates. Well I am what you would call an excellent customer. I never missed a payment, was never late for a payment and always paid way more than the minimum. What a sham being the good citizen is, I actually thought it meant something, boy was I wrong. All these banks recieved the largest taxpayer bailout in U.S. history and at the same time that the Federal Reserve has lowered short-term interest rates that banks pay to near zero percent, the same banks are charging consumers outrageous fees and sky-high interest rates on credit cards and other loans. Citibank, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and American Express recently notified customers that their interest rates are going up, in some cases to 30 percent, if a single payment is missed. They also are jacking-up interest rates on consumers who pay their bills on time and never go over their credit card limit.
