Commission Server Discord Template for Artists and Freelancers

Who it is for

Use it if you take paid requests as an illustrator, writer, editor, modeler, developer or musician. The artists page and freelancers page cover the pitch. The ticket to invoice guide walks through the same flow.

A server will not find you clients on its own. It helps once people already want your work, by keeping requests, prices and payments in one tidy place.

Channel flow

Build it with Noxyr

1. Run /ticketsetup panel_create for a request panel with form questions: what you want, deadline, reference links and budget range. Post with /ticketsetup panel.
2. Use /ticket claim to take a request and /ticket info to see the details.
3. When terms are agreed, send /invoice create from inside the ticket. See the invoice bot.
4. After delivery, collect feedback with /review config and let the client post. See reviews.
5. Post your terms with a message in #rules, and keep #slots updated with /sticky set or a manual post.
6. Turn on /security health so private ticket channels stay private.

Roles

Say no, politely

Write down what you do not make before a request arrives. A short list in #rules saves arguments. In tickets, a clear quote with a deadline and revision count is better than a long chat. Both sides agree before work starts.

Be honest about money

Do not promise a particular income, or tell clients that a server guarantees them better results. Quote prices in your own currency, state payment methods you accept and keep records. The terms of service template gives you wording for refunds and delays.

Common mistakes

• Taking work in DMs and losing track. Keep it in tickets.
• Starting before payment is agreed.
• Leaving slots open after you are full. Update the slots channel the same day.

A realistic first week

• Write your prices and terms first. The server just displays them.
• Test the request form yourself and cut any question you would not answer.
• Ask each client for a review, but never pressure or reward only good ones.
• Keep one pinned message with your current turnaround time.

What a good request looks like

The best requests come with a clear brief, a few reference links and a deadline. Put an example in the form placeholder, and show two sample briefs in #faq. Clients then copy the format, and you spend less time asking basic questions. Keep delivery in the ticket too, so there is one thread to point to if anything is disputed.

Your first week

Set up the info and request channels, post three finished samples and open two or three slots. Do the first requests slowly and note which questions you keep asking by hand, then add them to the form. A small, steady flow you can finish on time is worth more than a full queue you cannot.
