INTRODUCING INKVESTING
"Transforming the tattoo industry through innovative, business-savvy educational strategies and elite wealth-building frameworks designed to empower every artist."
Tattooing is an art, but running a successful studio requires more than just ink and skill. Inconsistent income, economic downturns, and financial uncertainty make it harder than ever for artists to thrive. The solution? Learn and Adopt the financial strategies used by elite professionals to ensure long-term stability and maintain immediate cash flow.
By structuring payments properly, you protect your business from poor economic conditions, avoid desperate price cuts, and secure your income—while giving clients access to tattoos they otherwise couldn’t afford. This allows artists to close more high-ticket projects without relying on discounts, while banks and financial institutions handle collections.
Q. Why doesn’t Traditional banking teach these strategies?
A.They don’t want you to think like an investment banker, an attorney, or a corporate finance expert. But the truth is, this knowledge is already used at the highest levels of business and finance and it’s time for every tattoo artist to leverage these same tools used by the industry elites to create the same stability, profitability, and financial security for your future.
Q. Where does someone start to learn about this type of business structure, and why have I never utilized it before?
A. Right here, here at the Inkvesting member site. This isn't an unusual concept in business finance, but it's not something that is commonly understood at the consumer banking level. Most people only interact with retail banking and consumer lending on the front end (deposits, withdrawals, personal loans, mortgages, and car financing) and not on the backend (contracts, agreements, and receivables). The securitization of receivables is something that happens behind the scenes, at the level of investment banks, hedge funds, and large corporations. This type of financial arrangement is primarily taught in advanced finance, accounting, and law programs, often at the graduate level (MBA, JD, or specialized finance certifications).
Some key areas where this is taught:
Financial Engineering (MBA, CFA, CPA, CTP-Certified Treasury Professional)
Securities Law & Regulations (JD, LLM in Securities Lan)
Structured Finance & Securitization (Investment Banking & Corporate Finance Specialties)
UCC & Commercial Law (JD, Paralegal Programs, Business Lan Courses)
The truth is, most people never encounter these concepts unless they study business or financial law, work in corporate finance, or specialize in structured finance deals. The average small business owner is just not aware and may not realize they can scale their operations using this structure or even know where to begin. When approached correctly, banks recognize the legitimacy of these requests.
Are you ready to break free from uncertainty and take control of your financial future?

Take Control of Your Name, Brand, and Creative Legacy
As an artist, your name is more than just an identity—it’s your brand, your reputation, and the foundation of your success. Without proper protection, others can profit from your work, limit your creative control, or even claim ownership over what you've built. Securing your intellectual property through trademarks, copyrights, and legal notices gives you full authority over your artistic identity, ensuring that only you benefit from your name, art, and business.
By securing legal ownership of your brand and intellectual property, you create valuable, monetizable assets that can be leveraged for funding, investment opportunities, and royalty-based income. Investors and financial institutions recognize legally protected intellectual property as a measurable asset—allowing you to negotiate better deals, secure licensing agreements, and even use your brand equity as collateral for growth.
This is how artists establish long-term financial security, control their creative careers, and build wealth beyond just their art. Whether you're a tattoo artist, independent creator, or business owner, taking these steps ensures you maximize your earning potential while maintaining full control over your artistic legacy.
