About
what flippity-flop is going on here
Disclaimer
Just to be clear Basket Co, is not a real company and they don't have any products or services. Well, apart from the licensing of the cartoon strips.
Products
So, please don't enquire about our extensive line of baskets and where you can buy them. We are not looking for distributors either.
Idea
Do you fancy a bit of fun, looking at the world of business? If so, you’re the right place. Sometimes businesses get it right and sometimes not. We are looking at the not.
Usage
Obviously, you’re free to look around the site and you can share the cartoon strips with your friends and co-workers. If, however, you want to use them in any kind of commercial setting, then you need to contact us and get a license.
Licenses are easy to obtain and if you’re only going to do legal things with the cartoon strips, then we will happily sell you a license.
Each cartoon strip has its own permanent URL which, you can use to reference a particular cartoon on this site. So, post that link in a forum in your blog (non-fee earning).
I retain all the copyright to all images and the rights to use them in all contexts, I have given you the right to use and share with your friends and co-workers. You may not sell or use them on or in products that you sell.
If in doubt, get in touch and ask. The worst-case scenario is that you need to pay a modest fee. Which is better than the alternative.
Getting in Touch
By far the easiest way to get in touch is via email. Use any of the following, depending on your intended purpose:
They will all go to me in the end. If you would like to comment on any of the cartoon strips, please use the hello email address.
Contributing
If you have an idea for a comic strip and are happy to give that idea away, then please let me know and I will see if I can turn it into a comic strip. Full credit for the original idea will be yours. Any money will be mine. Welcome to capitalism.
Other
Where possible, such as during the day, while the sun is out, these cartoons are produced with green solar electrons. The green type, not the blue type. If you saw the cartoon!
We're trying to do our bit.
About Me
I enjoy the fun and creation of the cartoon strips. I am drawing on my years of business to take what are typical situations and making them funny, or at least poignant. I have worked for many companies both large and small and have seen what they do and how they work. For better and often, worse.
This site is not about me in the end, it’s about them. The management, suppliers, staff and customers of Basket Co.
I hope you enjoy it…
