Thank you for your interest in working with our Pro-Team!
Before we get started with your application, we want you to know about the company you’ll be working with:
-
InkJunkeyz – a clothing company
-
Tattoo Industry Magazine – our publication
-
Right Aftercare – our aftercare brand
-
School of Ink & Arts – an online community where artists can network & attend seminars to learn new skills
What Are We Looking For?
The main thing we are looking for is artists who will be an asset to the brand—not a liability.
If you are not an asset, then you are a liability.
We are not looking for anyone who isn’t going to be an active, reliable contributor to the team.
Examples of Liabilities
-
No photos/videos after receiving products: If we send you a box worth $50+shipping and don’t receive quality assets in return, that makes you a liability, not an asset.
-
Slow delivery of assets: Getting a box on the 1st and sending photos 2–3 weeks later is not being an asset. We work on timelines, and sponsors expect quick turnarounds.
-
Missed sponsored project obligations: If a sponsor provides products and you don’t deliver the required assets, it makes us look bad as a company.
-
Not using provided aftercare: If we send you free aftercare and you don’t showcase it in your tattoos (e.g., soap reveals), that’s wasted product that could’ve gone to someone else.
-
No feedback on free classes: If we let you attend School of Ink & Arts classes for free, teachers expect input on quizzes and video content. Without that, we lose valuable time (and money) that could’ve gone to another artist who provides feedback.
Thank you for understanding how we select artists to work with.
