Abstract

This study is devoted to a comparative analysis of the tattoo services markets in the United States of America and Eastern European countries. The purpose of the research is to identify differences and similarities in business models, marketing strategies, and consumer preferences in order to determine potential vectors for integration and mutual development. The analysis reveals that the American market is characterized by a high degree of commercialization, the dominance of individualized approaches, and broad stylistic diversity driven by the maturity of consumer culture. The Eastern European market, in turn, demonstrates dynamic growth, a transition from subcultural isolation to mass acceptance, and the formation of tattoo studio networks, which opens new niches for development. The results of the study may be applied by market operators, investors, and tattoo artists to develop strategies for entering new geographic markets, adapting service models, and optimizing marketing communications with regard to regional specifics.

Keywords: Tattoo Industry, Business Models, Consumer Behavior, Comparative Analysis, U.S. Market, Eastern European Market, Globalization, Cultural Integration.
