Typically companies will provide royalties to artists or creators who are licensing their products to said companies! When I work with plush companies I get 35% of net profit for example.
In this instance however, I am the designer, and I would keep 100% of my profits! but of course I encourage design holders to purchase design rights cheaper to make profit of their own!
Edit: another reason to avoid this would be that buyers might think of the design as an investment? where they would be getting reimbursement in the form of royalties! I don’t want my buyers to be concerned about me selling merch that they can get royalties.
Ohh that’s actually a really good point, yeah I should make it clear that all merch is solely to my own discretion, and design holders can certainly pitch ideas but I will decide what I invest time and money in!!
Thanks so much for pitching in, I’ll fix that into the contract!
