TattooFinder.com has truly excelled in our position as a leader in online single tattoo designs sales. Our expansive collection of quality artwork and our highly developed web traffic give the company a strong pivot point for both image licensing requests and advertising inquiries. These relationships can be beneficial in the short-term, bringing both immediate and royalty-based revenues and possibly creating new marketing opportunities. But where a marketing opportunity exists, a mutually beneficial partnership can be fostered.

TattooFinder has chosen to focus on a long-term marketing approach, creating collaborative relationships with other businesses that are both within and outside of the tattoo industry. These strategic partnerships are grown through trust, over time and with each party looking for new and creative ways to support and promote each other. In this way, TattooFinder has been able to strengthen its brand, advance its industry authority, expand its influence in new markets and solidify customer relationships through value-added partner offerings.

By leveraging its high volume of website traffic and it’s vast collection of tattoo-friendly artwork, TattooFinder is able create opportunities that broaden their business model and attract outlying clients. Other tattoo-based media, including Tattoo Savage and Needled.com have cooperated with our company in content exchanges, banner swaps, collaborative projects and tattoo conventions. These short-term efforts have been very beneficial, but TattooFinder is especially proud of its industry-centered partnership with Inked Magazine. By sharing content, web traffic and cooperating on tattoo-based parties and events, TattooFinder is able to pair up with this industry leader and strengthen both entities as authorities in tattoo culture and education.

Cultivating highly integrated partnerships outside of the industry has also created numerous opportunities for long-term marketing advancement, especially in industries with “tattoo synergy” — fashion, sports, music and entertainment specifically maintain social ties to the tattooed and tattoo culture. TattooFinder has welcomed cross-industry business relationships from The Learning Channel, HarperCollins Publishers and Wireless Developer. We’ve been happy to take part in comprehensive marketing campaigns for the “Miami Ink” reality TV series, pen The Tattoo Sourcebook — a comprehensive guide to tattoo-friendly artwork and getting tattooed (released September 2008), as well as license our high-quality artwork for global use in the competitive mobile content market.

Our company’s licensing and advertising opportunities and even more so, our comprehensive marketing partnerships have created long-term and measurable benefits for our partners, from improved web traffic and online visibility to successful cross-industry promotion. We’re hard at work advancing our current partnerships and invite new collaborative marketing opportunities. Don’t hesitate to contact us for more information about how we might be able to work together!
