Why I built tats.to
Tattooing requires constant communication and context management. Most artists find themselves with a machine in one hand and their phone in another managing their scheduling, chasing down deposits, managing messages and clients, it's a lot.
tats.to is a crowdsourced booking and lead management platform designed just for tattoo artists. We strive to make it as easy as possible to capture specific client leads, and make follow up communication as easy as it can get.
Artists should be able to focus on their art, not marketing and customer management.
Who are we?
My name is Tom. I have built a 15+ year career as a software engineer working with small and medium businesses, more than half of it spent leading technical development as a Subject Matter Expert for a lead generation marketplace in the real estate industry.
Basically...I am really good at making websites and have a lot of industry knowledge around leads.
I am a collector and have been able to meet artists across the country in completing my bodysuit or covering my home in artwork. I want to use my skills and knowledge for something that matters to me, and I have skin in the game.
Why tats.to?
We will never ask your clients for money.
Protecting your personal and client information is of utmost importance to us. All of our analytics and product tracking is self-managed and in-house. Artists see the same analytics information the tats.to staff does. We will not use big tech for advertisements or analytics.
We will not take a percentage of your revenue. tats.to charges for software, not your lead.
