Creative Social - The Global E-Commerce Marketplace

Creative Social was started in January 2022. After seeing businesses struggle during the pandemic, due to a lack of resources and marketing expertise, we knew that there had to be a better solution. Our team started brainstorming and had a few questions.

From there, Creative Social was born! Our mission is to help businesses grow and thrive by providing them with the resources and knowledge they need to succeed.

So what do we do? Creative Social is the first global e-commerce platform built on Web3.0 technology that is leveraging the blockchain to make buying, selling, and trading digital and physical goods more seamless.

We provide resources, advice, and support so that our creators can focus on what they do best – running their businesses!

Our core values are creativity, collaboration, and community. At Creative Social, we believe that by working together, we can achieve anything. We are all about supporting and lifting businesses so that they can reach new heights, which is why we structured our platform in such a way that there is no financial risk to getting started. When you work with us, we can guarantee that there are no hidden fees, onboarding costs, monthly bills, and whatever else the other platforms are charging. There are no contracts, you aren't locked in to use us, and you are free to come and go when you want. But why would you want to leave?

Creator Onboarding

Hiram Villa, more commonly known as Teel, is an accomplished artist currently in Madison, Wisconsin. He is most well known for his graffiti and has been doing graffiti majority of his life, along with murals, paintings, and more recently, digital art.

Teel grew up in Chicago and was influenced by hip-hop. Shortly after his mother passed away, he had a few choices: get into some real trouble in the streets or take out his frustrations with graffiti. We all know which option he took. Teel found a crew at the age of 14 and started to quickly grow in popularity. One of the most important lessons he learned as a young artist was that each artist needs to have their own style and there has to be a level of symmetry to the work. Teel took on the challenge and continued to grow.

As Teel’s work got bigger and more known, he began to build out his collection. His paintings can be found spread across Madison in restaurants, bars, and more. He has painted in nearly every big city, worked with big brands like Miller, and continues to exapnd.

Most recently, Teel began diving into digital art, creating two collections "

 Both collections are unique and provide insight into his sense of humor and creativity. We are excited to have Teel on our platform and are excited to see his work grow in popularity with our community!

Collaboration is King: Make it a priority in your business!

In business, collaboration is often hailed as the key to success. After all, two heads are better than one, and by working together, we can achieve more than we ever could on our own.

But what exactly is collaboration? And how can it help your business grow?

Simply put, collaboration is the process of two or more people working together to achieve a common goal. This can be anything from developing a new product to growing a business.

There are many benefits of collaboration, but some of the most important ones include:

Increased creativity and innovation: Working with others helps to stimulate new ideas and perspectives that you may not have thought of on your own.

Greater efficiency and productivity: When everyone is working towards the same goal, things tend to get done faster and more efficiently.

Improved communication and teamwork: Collaboration requires good communication to be successful. By working together, you and your team will learn to communicate better, which can only benefit your business as a whole.

At Creative Social, we understand how important it is to be able to collaborate, but most importantly, we understand that it's hard sometimes to find the right person or people to collaborate with. That is why we have built a community centered around collaboration. We have partners that are the best in the business, including apparel, print and framing, and more so that you can trust they will get the job done and don't have to go searching for the right contact to produce your products. We also have an ecosystem where creators can work together. For example, an athlete can pair up with an artist to create a unique and exclusive collection, while never having to leave Creative Social.

Our goal is to build a unique and frictionless experience for each of our community members! If you're interested in what we have going on, please don't hesitate to join our community by clicking

Interest is beginning to become more mainstream!

Art has come a long way since the days of hunters painting animals on cave walls. With the advent of digital technology, artists now have a myriad of new tools at their disposal. As a result, digital art is becoming increasingly popular, both with creators and audiences. One of the advantages of digital art is that it can be easily shared and distributed online. This has democratized the art world, making it easier for new and emerging artists to reach a wider audience. Additionally, digital art is highly versatile and can be used to create anything from traditional paintings to three-dimensional animations. As more people become comfortable with using digital technologies, it's likely that digital art will continue to grow in popularity.

The ease of creation: how software programs make it simple to produce digital art

Anyone with a computer and an internet connection can be an artist these days. It's never been easier to create digital art, thanks to the wide array of software programs available. Whether you're looking to design a new website or create a work of 3D art, there's a program out there that can help you. Even better, many of these programs are free or very low-cost. That means anyone can get started creating digital art, regardless of their budget. And with so many tutorials and online resources available, it's easy to learn how to use these programs, even if you're starting from scratch. So if you've ever wanted to try your hand at digital art, there's no excuse not to give it a go. Who knows? You might just surprise yourself with what you're capable of creating.

The market for digital art: why more and more people are interested in collecting it

In the past, art collectors were primarily interested in buying paintings and sculptures that they could display in their homes. However, in recent years, there has been a growing market for digital art. As the world becomes increasingly digitized, more and more people are interested in collecting art that exists in the digital realm. There are several reasons for this trend. First of all, digital art is often more affordable than traditional artwork. Secondly, it is easy to store and transport digital files, making it convenient for collectors to add to their collections. Finally, many people appreciate the unique aesthetics of digital art, which can be very different from traditional art forms. As the market for digital art continues to grow, it is likely that more and more people will become interested in collecting it.

The reproducibility of digital art: how easy it is to share and distribute

In the art world, the concept of reproducibility has always been a contentious issue. With digital art, however, the issue has become even more complex. On the one hand, digital artists have unprecedented control over how their work is reproduced. They can choose to distribute their artwork online or through print-on-demand services, and they can even sell digital copies of their work. On the other hand, the very nature of digital art makes it highly prone to piracy. Once an image or file is shared online, it can be copied an infinite number of times with little effort. As a result, many digital artists find it difficult to control how their work is distributed and worry that their livelihoods may be threatened by piracy. Despite these challenges, however, the ease of sharing and distributing digital art has also made it possible for artists to reach a global audience and build up a loyal following of fans. In the end, only time will tell how the increased reproducibility of digital art will affect the way it is valued by collectors and critics alike.

Digital art is becoming increasingly popular for a number of reasons. First, it is relatively easy to create digital artworks using software programs such as Photoshop or Illustrator. Second, there is a growing market for digital art, as more and more people are interested in collecting and displaying unique and interesting artwork. Third, digital art can be easily reproduced and shared, making it ideal for artists who want to reach a wide audience. Finally, digital art offers a unique and dynamic way of expressing oneself.

If you're interested in creating and selling digital art, Creative Social can help you get started. We offer a range of services, including tutorials and white glove service, to help create, list, and start selling your art. We also provide a printing & framing partnership to include printed copies of your digital art with every piece. 

As the world becomes increasingly digitized, more and more people are interested in collecting art that exists in the digital realm. 

The Digital Art Age: Why more and more people are getting interested

If you're new to the world of cryptocurrency, you may be wondering what a wallet is and how it works. Most of you have a wallet to store money, credit cards, IDs, and if you don't clean yours out very often, maybe even your Blockbuster card. Your wallet is a place to keep your things close and protected. A wallet in the crypto space isn't much different, to be honest. It's a place to store your cryptocurrency. But instead of dollars or euros, you've got crypto coins or tokens.

There are many types of wallets, but the most important distinction is between hot and cold wallets. Hot wallets are connected to the internet and therefore more vulnerable to hacks, while cold wallets are offline and much more secure.

A hot wallet is a digital cryptocurrency wallet that is connected to the internet. Because they are connected to the internet, hot wallets are more vulnerable to hacks. However, hot wallets are also easier to use because they can be accessed from anywhere in the world. If you want to buy or sell cryptocurrency quickly, a hot wallet is a good choice.

A cold wallet is a digital cryptocurrency wallet that is not connected to the internet. Because they are not connected to the internet, cold wallets are much more secure. However, cold wallets can be difficult to use because they can only be accessed from a specific location. If you want to store your cryptocurrency long-term, a cold wallet is a good choice.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each type of wallet?

Hot wallets are characterized by their ease of use and accessibility. They are typically hosted on online exchanges or third-party platforms, which means that they can be accessed from any computer with an internet connection. Cold wallets, on the other hand, are offline wallets that are typically stored on a USB drive or offline computer. Because they are not connected to the internet, cold wallets are much more secure than hot wallets. However, they can be more difficult to set up and use, and they may not be compatible with all exchanges. Ultimately, both hot and cold wallets have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it’s important to choose the right type of wallet for your needs.

If you're like most people, you probably keep your wallet in your back pocket. But what if I told you that there's a much better way to keep your wallet safe? The great thing about a crypto wallet is that it is much more secure than a traditional wallet. With a traditional wallet, if someone stole your wallet, they would have access to all of your money. But with a crypto wallet, only you have the private keys that allow you to access your funds. So even if someone stole your crypto wallet, they wouldn't be able to do anything with it.

A private key is like a secret password that allows you to access and manage your cryptocurrency funds. It is a string of letters and numbers that proves your ownership of your cryptocurrency. Just like a traditional bank account, you need to keep your private key safe and secure. If someone else gets access to your private key, they can steal your cryptocurrency. That's why it's important to never share your private key with anyone. The best way to protect your private key is to keep it stored in a secure place, such as a digital wallet, on a piece of paper that you keep in a safe place, or memorize it. So how can you keep your crypto wallet secure? The best way is to use a hardware or cold wallet like a Ledger. These devices allow you to store your private keys offline, which makes them much more difficult to steal, and are also protected by an 8-digit code.

We have a few different options for you as a user on our platform. Because we have built our ecommerce platform on the blockchain, everyone needs to have a wallet. To make it even easier, we have a few options:

You can use a non-custodial wallet, which is simply a wallet that we set up for you and is specifically tied to your profile

You can use a hot wallet, like MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet

You can continue shopping as you would on Amazon, Etsy, and other platforms, using a credit card or crypto, but now have a wallet associated with your account to store any digital assets that a creator on our platform may reward you with for supporting their business. Our goal is to make the transaction frictionless and to allow users the ability to use whatever form of payment they are comfortable with. Shopping should be easy, so let's continue to make it easy.
