Resilient Roots Customs – Artist Collaboration Guidelines

​

We believe in amplifying creative voices and showcasing powerful stories through art. At Resilient Roots Customs, we partner with artists to bring their designs to life on apparel, home décor, and canvas prints, creating meaningful products that inspire and connect. Our model is designed to be artist-first, transparent, and mutually beneficial.

​

1. Ownership & Rights

 

All artwork submitted and approved for collaboration remains the intellectual property of the artist.

Resilient Roots Customs receives non-exclusive rights to reproduce and sell the work on physical products (e.g., apparel, wall art, canvas).

Artists may continue to use and sell their work independently.

 

2. Revenue Share Model

 

To support a fair partnership, we propose the following profit-sharing structure:

Net Profit Split (After Cost of Goods Sold):
50% Artist

50% Resilient Roots Customs

Net profit is defined as the remaining amount after production, printing, and transaction fees are deducted from the sale price.

 

3. Payment Terms

 

Payouts are made monthly, with a detailed sales report provided.

Minimum payout threshold: $50. If not reached, balance rolls over to the next month.

Payments are sent via PayPal, Venmo, or direct deposit, based on artist preference.

 

4. Artist Contributions

 

Artists are responsible for:

Providing high-resolution, print-ready artwork (minimum 300 DPI).

Submitting a short bio and social media/website links for credit and promotion.

Ensuring that their work is original and does not infringe on any third-party rights.

 

5. Resilient Roots Customs Contributions

 

We provide:

Product setup, print-on-demand production, and eCommerce platform management.

Marketing, social media promotion, and customer service.

Handling of orders, shipping, and fulfillment logistics.

 

6. Product Selection

 

Artwork may be printed on t-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, mugs, or canvas prints, depending on suitability.

 

We collaborate with each artist to ensure the design is used appropriately and with integrity.

 

7. Promotion & Collaboration
Artists will be tagged and credited in all applicable marketing content.

Opportunities for collaborative social media campaigns, features, and interviews.

Artists may request a discounted rate on their own items for personal use or resale.

 

8. Termination & Removal
Either party may end the collaboration with 30 days’ written notice.

Upon termination, products featuring the artist's work will be removed from sale.

Any outstanding payments will be processed on the final payout date.
