Tiers of Merit System (TOMS)

The Place to be Gallery has put in place a tiers of merit system (TOMS) that will function as an impartial and open means of evaluating the calibre of an artist’s or designers work while offering the most effective means of guaranteeing their acknowledgement and financial compensation.

We have been working on ways to decentralise the system as much as possible and remove the majority of authority from ourselves and the more powerful and well-established organisations involved in the decision making process. This arrangement, in our opinion, gives the general public, who will be endorsing and purchasing the artists’ and designers’ creations, more influence and decision making authority.

How the System Works

The way the system operates is through a tier system with 5 distinct tiers. An artist or designer can begin at the first tier and work their way up to the top tier depending on how much money they have made from the sales of their items. For instance, tier 5 is where aspiring artists and designers might join the tier system in the beginning of their careers.

There is a maximum fee that designers and artists can charge for their work at each tier. They will advance to the next tier after they have accrued the maximum amount of money possible from sales made through The Place to be Gallery for that tier. The pricing ranges that artists and designers can choose for their creations are higher than those of the tiers they previously occupied. As they advance to the next tier and ultimately the last tier, which is tier 1, the total amount they must acquire likewise rises.

There is no maximum amount that artists and designers can charge for their work once they have reached tier one. Since they would have attained elite level and rank, they can charge whatever they want.

Tiers

Tier 5: The maximum fee charged for each item cannot be more than £1000. You advance to tier 4 after reaching £1000 in total sales.
Tier 4: The maximum fee charged for each item cannot be more than £10,000. You advance to tier 3 after reaching £10,000 in total sales.

Tier 2: The maximum fee charged for each item cannot be more than £1,000,000. You advance to tier 1 after reaching £1,000,000 in total sales.
Tier 1: There is no maximum fee charged for each item once £1,000,000 in total sales has been reached. You are free to set any price you like for your work since you would have attained elite rank and level of ability.
