:star:  GREETING CARDS ON SALE FRIDAY! GET READY NOW!

Starting Friday, November 13th, we'll be having a 30% off discount on all greeting cards, for all users!  That's the biggest prints product discount we've offered to date.

As good #printscommunity group watchers know, this is an excellent opportunity for Prints artists to promote their prints!  Despite the amazing discount, you'll still be earning the exact same commission you normally would.  Plus, most importantly, now is the time of year when people start stocking up on greeting cards for the holidays!

:star:  BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

During this sale period we'll also be allowing all users to purchase prints of their own greeting cards for 30% off of the base price. That's $13.29 (regularly $18.99) for a box of 10 and $19.95 (regularly $28.50) for a box of 25.

:star:  TIPS AND TRICKS!

Here are a few ideas to get you started on raking in some prints profits just in time for the holidays:

:bulletgreen: Promote your prints on deviantART: Post a journal to inform your watchers about the greeting cards you have available for sale and add a link to your prints shop in your comment signature, reminding fellow deviants of your great art up for sale.

:bulletgreen: Social networks: While not nearly as awesome as deviantART, we do acknowledge that Twitter, Facebook, and Myspace exist.  Use these sites to help spread the work to your family and friends.  Who better to appreciate your work than the people you know best!  It's easy to post and share a link directly to your prints shop or print product pages this way.  Just use this format:  yourusername.deviantart.com/prints

:bulletgreen: Email friends and family: It's hard to believe, but not everyone is on social networks. Reach out and email someone, letting them know about our giant greeting card sale. If Grandma is going to buy some greeting cards for the holidays, they might as well be ones her favorite grandchild made!

:star:  ENABLE GREETING CARDS!  IT'S NOT TOO LATE!

If you don't have greeting cards available for sale, it's not too late!  Here's how to create yours:

1. Go here.
2. Select a deviation or print.
3. Click on the "greeting cards" tab to view, edit, and configure your cards.
4. Click the "submit print" button.
5. Eat a cookie! :cookie:

It only takes a minute and you can repeat as necessary to include other products. For a new submission, you'll be taken to step 3 automatically when you finish submitting a deviation.  Need inspiration?  Check out what your fellow prints artists have up for sale here.

Happy Holidays!  Yup, they're here!

:w00t!: This is such a grand idea to support all of our amazing artists.

Yet i keep asking for you all to make sales of anything for a longer period of time.

It's only because i'm the founder of many clubs and love to give out gifts and also send special cards to over 4,000 of my real life family and long time friends.
What i understand is this, is just a very small problem only because i know so many people, deviants, & club members that are on a very hardship with funds and are on a tight fixed income that they recieve funds at the fist of the month.

:please: Please i'm begging you to think about making any of your dA sales for a longer time and not a short time.

But then again it's your website and i do believe that you or anybody must do what is best for them and them alone.

:love: You all are doing an amazing job for all of us true loyal deviants here on the greatest website ever with dA. Well done in deed and i wish you all well, with a long healthy happy life to you and yours.

I wish you all the very best in the art world & beyond!!!.

With Love,
Ms. P. :heart:
