I'm going to add onto this. I just talked about this lately. People in this fandom
REALLY need to look at how they handle their business, their clients, money and time.
If you have something going on personally or something health related to be transparent about it, don't go radio silent. Communication is important for both parties.
If you need to sacrifice a client because you took on too many applications, give a full refund.
If you take money upfront, ask for a safety deposit. No one in this economy can pull large amounts of money, and it's A LOT that you're asking.
ANY TIME YOU TAKE MONEY BE PROFESSIONAL WITH YOUR SERVICE.
When you find an artist you want to c0mm:
- DMs off
- DM with no response ever
- No links in bio, impossible to find
- The heart shattering "I don't do comms"
- "Become verified to message this person"
- "C0mms closed" every single time you look
and the final boss
- "NO OC's!"
