What the f**k is InkLink?

Fair question. Let me explain.

I'm Mario, the founder of InkLink. Here's me and my dog, Hank.

I'm not a tattoo artist, but I like getting tattoos. (They're under my shirt, I promise).

What I hate about tattoos is how hard it is to book them.

Every artist has a unique combination of Google Forms or email or whatever on their Instagram. It's a mess.

Then there's the back and forth to get all of the requirements, land on a date, pay deposits, etc. You know what I'm talking about.

I was going through this process with my artist, Steven, and was frustrated by how hard it was.

Then I thought: "You know what? I bet he doesn't like this any more than I do."

It turns out I was right.

I set up a call with Steven so I could understand his booking system. He told me all of the things that annoyed him.

I took notes. I asked questions. I listened.

Then I did what any rational person would do -- I went all-in on building software specific to his needs. Something that would make his life easier, and by extension, mine (and his other clients).

That's how InkLink was born.

By day, I built boring logistics software (yawn). By night, I built the simplest tattoo software I could imagine.

I ran EVERYTHING by Steven to make sure it worked for him.

It took a while, but we got there. I built the first version of InkLink and Steven has been using it since.

If you're reading this, you're probably a tattoo artist who has many of the same annoyances as Steven. I also probably found you online either with ads or cold outreach or something. I'm sorry, I didn't know how else to get this in front of you.

Chances are your problems are similar to Steven's. You both need a way to manage your bookings, right?

If your problems are different, I'd love to hear about them. I'm always looking for ways to improve the product.

In short: InkLink is a small business started by a crazy software engineer to make his favorite tattoo artist's life easier.

If you don't want to use InkLink, I understand. Thank you for reading this far. I hope you have a great day!
