Run a tattoo artists association of studios and freelancers from one place: member artists, hygiene papers, annual fees, receipts, workshop circulars and chapter attendance, without an Instagram list as your membership roll. Client bookings stay in studio tools; Associan keeps the artists’ chapter organised.

Studios close after midnight. The association still treats Instagram as a membership database.
One body mixes roles. Fees differ, but the roll is flat. Studio owners and travelling guest artists need different classes.
UPI arrives from personal numbers. Matching the artist takes hours. Late-night sessions push dues onto personal UPI.
When a member needs a letter, last year’s scan is gone. Hygiene certificates sit in drawers until an inspection letter arrives.
A training circular is forwarded until half the chapter never saw the date. Workshop posters lose the venue in compression.
Attendance is a sheet while studios are still open. Late studio hours clash with early chapter meetings.
A member needs a guest artist and has to ask around. Guest spots are filled by DM, not by a searchable roll.
Chapter membership for tattooists; client bookings stay in your studio tools.
An artist applies with name, studio, city and category after closing, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
The documents your committee asks for stay with the member, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
Set separate fees for studio owner, guest artist and associate, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
Members pay online. Cash at the desk is recorded against the same member, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
Post a workshop or meeting note once. Members read it in the app, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
Members search other tattoo artists by city and category, so the committee is not rebuilding the same list every month.
A quiet weekday afternoon finally clears three overdue studio renewals; each payment creates a PDF against the studio membership, not a guest artist’s personal number.
A travelling guest artist enrols with the guest class and city tags so host studios can find cover without scrolling DMs from last year.
Chapter night starts with QR passes. Hygiene workshop details stay on the board with a date guest artists can trust when they fly in.
Payments post to the artist membership.
Directory by city.
One board.
Workshop posts are chapter-wide, not DM-only.
The same simple flow for every tattoo artist, set up for your association in about a day.
Post it in your group or on your letterhead. Each tattoo artist fills the form on their phone.
Firm details, GST and the documents your committee needs are uploaded with the application.
The committee approves and the fee is paid online, or recorded if paid by cash or cheque.
Membership number, PDF receipt, certificate and QR member pass are issued automatically.
A small committee with volunteer office bearers moved dues, receipts, notices and meeting attendance onto Associan. The treasurer stopped matching payment screenshots, and every resident can see notices in one place instead of scrolling a busy group.
