part-time activities will be excluded from Evacomics accounts. I anticipate that income from<br />
Evacomics will only become substantial from Year 2 onwards as I build and reputation through<br />
more projects and release of my first book. I should be able to earn a living from Evacomics from<br />
Year 3 onwards and hire a part-time assistant to do some coloring work for me. The following<br />

PRODUCTS & SERVICES<br />
8.4.1. Product Description<br />
There are two kinds of products from Evacomics. One is merchandise sold through Society6<br />
that includes art prints, printed canvases, art cards, iPhone stickers, t-shirts, hoodies and throw<br />
pillows. The other is the comic book. Payment from Society6 is compiled every month and then sent<br />
to my Paypal account. However because of this, profit margins are extremely low. The objective of<br />
setting up this store is to allow fans to support the artists, see how well designs transfer onto tangible<br />
objects, test market response and to determine what kind of designs sell well. It can also be used as a<br />
visualization to present to clients who are interested to use my design for their products. Evacomics<br />
will target to release at least 20 designs per year with 8 designs released before November 2013 for<br />
Thanksgiving. Designs will be removed or updated based on fan feedback from Facebook Page or on<br />
Society6.<br />
