Another update in our series looking at the various levels of perks you can claim in return for contributing to our project at indiegogo.com/wowlookwhatigot. This time we're looking at ...

"The Emin"

$25 / £15 – 3 month's trial membership, PLUS one extra month FREE! i.e. you get 4 fine art prints. Worth getting out of an unmade bed for! We will not automatically re-bill you – we'll ask nicely whether you want to take out a subscription when you get your first artwork. NB: For INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING (outside the UK), PLEASE ADD $10 at checkout!

The point of the perks we're offering is to give people a chance to try out the service and see the quality of the artwork before they decide to take out a regular subscription. So - none of this '30 days free' stuff where you have to hand over your credit card details and if you forget to cancel you suddenly find you've been charged again. Nope, you just get to try it out and then we'll send a letter asking you to sign up if you liked the trial - that's the deal - no pressure, no automatic re-billing, no hassle :-)

To end up with a viable business in the long term we need two things - the equipment and consumables to produce the goods, and someone to sell them to. Crowd-funding is ideal in that in theory it will give us both at the same time - we raise the capital we need to get started and in the process get a list of people who we know are at least potentially interested in a subscription. You get a really good deal on some art, with no pressure to continue ... a win-win situation for everyone, no?

So, this weekend would be a really good time to take the plunge and give it a try - nothing to lose, after all - so please take a few minutes to pop along to indiegogo.com/wowlookwhatigot, contribute to the project, and recommend all your friends and relations to do the same! I highly recommend you get yourself an "Emin", before they all run out!
