Amateur Sculptors and Targeted Impact
Impact! Miniatures was the first major miniatures company to offer an ability for amateur sculptors to sell their work under a lifetime commission basis with their Targeted Impact! arrangement. Any sculptor who wishes may submit an image of a sculpted fantasy football miniature that he has created to Impact!. If the Creative Design partner approves the figure then Impact! will cast the figure and add it to the store. The sculptor receives no upfront payment for the sculpture but does receive a 10% commission on any sales of his miniature up to a maximum of $15 USD per mm of sculpt height paid out quarterly . This program has proved very popular and Impact! now offers over 50 different miniatures under this arrangement. Commissions payments as of December 31, 2010 for Targeted Impact! contracts since the program started have totaled over $22000 USD.

Famous quotes containing the words amateur and/or impact:
“I have been reporting club meetings for four years and I am tired of hearing reviews of the books I was brought up on. I am tired of amateur performances at occasions announced to be for purposes either of enjoyment or improvement. I am tired of suffering under the pretense of acquiring culture. I am tired of hearing the word “culture” used so wantonly. I am tired of essays that let no guilty author escape quotation.”
—Josephine Woodward, U.S. author. As quoted in Everyone Was Brave, ch. 3, by William L. O’Neill (1969)
“Conquest is the missionary of valour, and the hard impact of military virtues beats meanness out of the world.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
