PROPOSAL BY: Jadyn Soulstar

GROUP NAME: Kink Ink

TYPE: Tattoo/Piercing Studio

SLURL: Teleport

BACKSTORY: (the shop is pre-existing) Jayde returns to Dead End and after a night of drinking at Lulu's decides to "celebrate" her return with some new ink, so she heads to her favorite tattoo shop in town, Kink Ink. She wakes up the next morning the proud owner of a new tattoo and to her surprise Kink Ink. Having spent the majority of her savings to purchase the business, she realizes she has to make it work.

UNIQUE: Jayde will be putting her own stamp on the business, and do her best to make it a success. That being said I also plan to put in a proposal for a gang which will run behind the scenes business and Kink Ink will be a way to launder that money, as well as provide a legitimate front. This does not mean Jayde doesn't care about business though; she loves body mods so the artistry of it is something she has a passion for so she will do what it takes to put Kink Ink on the map.

EXP:I have been in SL for close to 5 years (on my original avi) and have ran multiple businesses (club, photography studio, HUD based RP game). I have co-owned two separate Bloodlines clans, and helped run a third, and also co-owned multiple Hunger groups consisting of about 200 members. I have been a sim owner as well as an admin/mod at others, and in DE I have previously been both a gang leader and a business ower in the past.

IDEAS:I would like to collabortae with some of the other local businesses IE: Pin-up or Burlesque inspired photoshoots featuring artists and clients of the shop with No Escape; Burlesque themed Events and Show Your Ink events at Lulus, Marcello, & The Hedonist; Best Ink contest(tattoo artists compete for prizes as well as title) with Irezumi. I'm also thinking of having a topless night similar to some of the other businesses in town as well as half price nights, and so on.

OTHER:I know that Kink Ink is an original DE business and that the staff really want to see someone step and run it. I would be proud to manage it and plan on doing me absolute best to make it all that it should be. According to the requirements for criminal groups I will not be able to put in the proposal for that for another month and a half, so I will be using the time to attract more business and RP to Kink Ink as well as get the leadership structure for the gang in place and work on connections for our illegal business.
