How we do what we do.


Cooperative Economics, Socialism, Communal Finances, call it what you will.  It's just the reverse of some old Scrooge McDuck figure at the top keeping all the wealth for himself.  We at Supreme Design Publishing actually advocate that we can all bake this pie, cook this pie, and slice it nicely so that everyone can get their piece of it.  What a notion.

In America most things are set up on a corrupted capitalistic model where there is a small circle of people getting rich off of the labor of the poor.  Record labels are one of the key examples out there. 

Now don't get it twisted.  We're a business and we're going to make a profit.  Yet we have a set of values and ethics that allows us to be successful while at the same time improving the lot of those who are partners with Supreme Design Publishing and all of those connected with us at any level.  We refuse to move with the current business paradigm that is out there.  So we have decided to create our own.  In the spirit of transparency I want to put it out there how we do some of what we do.

*On all levels we move with Original People.  Everyone on the staff, our brokers, our printers (both in India and China), our graphic artists, our editors, our promoters, etc.   Also by being our own selves with Original People we allow them to also be their own selves.  Down to international business representatives feeling comfortable enough with us to use their names in their own languages vs some English alternate name that they think they need to use in order to do business with people in the United States.

*We have an internal investment/profit sharing structure where everyone on staff has the opportunity to be involved in the production of every product out of Supreme Design Publishing.  This allows a return in proportion to a person's investment. No one is making money without labor.  Yet everyone who labors is making money.  Our format is so ill that it allows all (contributors, editors, promoters, etc) to be on equal footing in terms of profit sharing.

*We're working to fully actualize this communal/collective economics on all level.  Realizing that we don't want to be affiliated with 'rich slave makers of the poor' on any level we have started to integrate using open source programming in our business.  Utilizing Open Source programs like Open Office or Open Source operating systems like Ubuntu allows us to not become dependent on monopolies like MicroSoft which have questionable practices.  Open Source allows for us to be invovled in a worldwide community whose goal is collective improvement of technology.

And this is just a little of how we do what we do.
