Huge Lot Scrapbooking

A digital scrapbooking business requires little investment, is relatively easy to learn and has huge income potential. The only area where things get a little tricky and where you need to be just a little bit cautious is when you're using other people's digital scrapbook templates or supplies because this is where you run into those dreaded copyright issues.

You might think you'll design all your digital scrapbook layouts and embellishments yourself. OK, but there are already thousands of page layouts, digital scrapbook papers, you name it, available from a wide range of suppliers for just a couple of dollars. You might like designing, I certainly do, but often you've got to ask yourself if it's worth the time to create your own with such a wealth of supplies available?

However, you do have to be just a little bit careful. Lots of online scrapbook stores offer digital scrapbook freebies as samples to entice you to buy. Nothing wrong with that, it's nice to see the quality of work before you commit. Be careful about using these freebies in anything but personal scrapbooks though.

Sometimes they'll say that they are OK for commercial use but this is rare. If you want to use them for your digital scrapbooking business, and sell the completed scrapbook, you usually have to pay. At just a couple of bucks a time, why not? You can make dozens of times your money back so why not support the industry you are working in?

This is where we come to those strange letters. What exactly do S4H and S4O mean?

Well they're pretty similar really. S4H is "scrap 4 hire" and S4O is "scrapping for others" (or scrapbooking for others), both of which essentially mean whether you're getting paid or not you're using the digital scrapbook supplies to make scrapbooks for other people.

Occasionally they'll just make it easy on you and say that you can use the layouts or templates to make and sell digital scrapbooks - but every business likes it's little codes and acronyms, doesn't it!

The real point here is that your digital scrapbook business will take a bit of time and effort to build a reputation and arguments over copyright can do you no end of damage. The internet might seem an endless place but once the gossip starts in any particular industry it can spread quickly. Your valuable reputation can be tarnished fast, so when you buy your digital scrapbook supplies make sure you can use them as you want. If it's not clear, just ask.
