What problem are you solving?

TAHDA solves the lack of authenticity, visibility, and trust in the online art market. Buyers want verified creators, artists want fair exposure, and fundraisers want transparent tools. TAHDA unifies all three.

Why limit the platform to American‑created art?

Because the U.S. has unmatched free‑expression protections and a uniquely diverse cultural landscape. This creates a creative environment—and a verification system through USPS—that no other country can replicate.

How does the USPS vetting process work?

Artists mail their application through USPS, which confirms a deliverable U.S. address and establishes physical presence in America. This reduces fraud and reinforces TAHDA’s authenticity guarantee.

Why charge a $5 vetting fee?

It ensures applicants are serious about joining the platform. It also covers processing and postage.  

Core Business Questions

Market & Competition Questions

Who are your competitors?

Competitors include online art marketplaces and fundraising platforms, but none combine American‑only creation, USPS‑verified authenticity, and a dual marketplace + fundraising model. That combination is TAHDA’s competitive moat.

How big is your market?

TAHDA sits inside the U.S. art market, one of the world’s largest, and also taps into the charitable fundraising sector. Both markets are growing and increasingly digital.

.

Why will artists choose TAHDA over other platforms?

Because TAHDA offers visibility through membership tiers, a Featured Artist spotlight, and a community built on American identity and trust. Artists also appreciate the fairness of commission structures.

Market & Competition Questions

How do you prevent fraud?

USPS verification, vetted membership, and original‑work requirements create a strong fraud‑resistant structure. Listings also include disclaimers about material origin.

Operations Questions

How does shipping work?

Buyers pay shipping at checkout. Funds route through TAHDA’s mailing accounts, and artists ship via USPS, UPS, or FedEx—whichever is most cost‑efficient. Artists handle fulfillment.

What happens if an artist doesn’t ship an item?

TAHDA can suspend or remove the artist’s membership in addition to a commission penalty after 7 days of delayed shipment. USPS‑verified addresses make accountability enforceable.

How do you ensure quality control?

Only vetted members can list items, and all works must be original and created in America. TAHDA maintains the right to remove listings that violate standards.

Fundraising Questions

How does the fundraising commission return work?

From the 20% commission:

  • 15% goes back to tax‑deductible charities as a donation
  • 10% goes back to individuals or groups as a gift

This supports causes while keeping TAHDA sustainable.

Growth & Vision Questions

How will you scale?

Through national artist recruitment, partnerships with cultural institutions, Featured Artist campaigns, and expansion into workshops, exhibitions, and corporate collaborations.

What is the long‑term vision?

To become the leading platform for American‑created art—a national hub where authenticity, liberty, and creativity converge.

What’s your biggest risk?

Market adoption. The solution is aggressive outreach, strong branding, and clear communication of TAHDA’s authenticity advantage.
