Just because you and everyone you associate with has no problem with it, doesn't mean that it's universally understandable.  Just think to yourself "would trump be able to pronounce it without spelling it out syllable by syllable?", would he be able to spell it?  That's the idiot test... If it doesn't pass the trump test, you might be ruling out half of your potential customer base.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Carolyn Elizabeth Brown</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 07 Oct 2019 08:30:52 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How To Get Your Cool T-Shirts Reviewed by a T-Shirt Blog</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/how-to-get-your-cool-t-shirts-reviewed-by-a-t-shirt-blog/#comment-4598600205</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I am so happy across your post.

Do you have a different site. Checked out your FB page and it was closed in 2011. Anyways, I ran into many of the issues as it has taken me 5 years of figuring out how to start my t-shirt company, (and watching a guy get successful by ripping designs in my niche), and this is what i have learned. 1. You need a target audience, if you don't have that then you don't have anyone else to sell to. If you're an artist then how can you get other artists to support you, and most importantly how can you help and support them. Be a company that has a product people can believe in, and then believe in them. Hold contests, give prizes, find ways people can interact with your product. Paying for a t-shirt is a personal experience that people will wear and represent. 2. Print your own shirts. Screen printing is an art itself so represent your brand (your baby), by never allowing the chance for anyone to ever screw it up. My friend started by printing shirts for his band, he used a piece of glass and his mom's lamp for his exposure unit. Now he gets hired by Vans Shoes. The point is he's still struggling, he's not rich, 20 years later he's still learning, but he never quit in what he believed in. 3. Step by Step. Today I am closer to achieving my goal than yesterday. On days i need to wait then I'm teaching myself about graphic design. or wed design. Use elegant themes Divi builder and use WooCommerce to set up your site. It's easy and it will be cheaper in the long run. 4. Help others. Starting a business is about how you can provide a product or service for your customer. be there for people and they will be there for you. Get out in the community and talk to people. Host free events and offer a free drawing class or something. Let people know it's not about the $$ but it's about building something better for the community. 5. NEVER GIVE UP! . Believe in yourself and others will too.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dennis C</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 12 Feb 2019 22:27:13 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How NOT To Start A T-Shirt Company</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/how-not-to-start-a-t-shirt-company/#comment-4334995161</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I was wondering how your clothing line turned out. lqedlabs@gmail.com&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Dennis C</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 12 Feb 2019 22:07:07 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How NOT To Start A T-Shirt Company</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/how-not-to-start-a-t-shirt-company/#comment-4318306489</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I don't do tees.

Art to me is key. If your art is weak, no amount of sales or exposure will help. What do you like to do for hobbies? This is a good area if you have familiarity and join groups. Basically niche marketing is a good way to start be it for bands, bicycling, sports, or it could be your professional background, construction, surf shops, and so on. Your starting point could be all custom (a customer hassle waiting to happen), or fine tune it to a specific group and &lt;a href="https://trendingteestoday.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="https://trendingteestoday.com/"&gt;create outstanding designs&lt;/a&gt;, far less hassles and you can go vertical in sales, right to the end user via the net. You will find that your equipment can become a huge limitation to create multi-color prints that pop. So research local contract printers and use their expertise for turning orders. Many contract shops welcome people who merchandise designs, collate the orders to meet minimums. You will have allies in the business who can source the shirts with your deposit, produce and often fulfill and ship the orders. You can grow into that with end user sales, packaged sales to corporations or groups. Owning a complete shop from day one is a mistake. Grow into equipment, or not. Some of my best customers don’t own any presses but have sales in the millions.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">trendingteestoday</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 21 Dec 2018 14:38:36 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How to start a tshirt business</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/how-to-start-a-tshirt-business/#comment-4248276116</link><description>&lt;p&gt;nice, i just started, please keep going with tha information&lt;br&gt;is very good&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.tshirt-maker.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="https://www.tshirt-maker.com/"&gt;https://www.tshirt-maker.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Leon Zitro</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 19 Dec 2018 11:01:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How to start a tshirt business</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/how-to-start-a-tshirt-business/#comment-4221441073</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Do I need to manufacture my own shirts, pants, hats, etc. or can i purchase them somewhere and put my logo on?&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Corey</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 02 Dec 2018 00:06:01 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Why you should use Plastisol Transfers to Print T-Shirts</title><link>https://www.howtostartaclothingcompany.com/why-you-should-use-plastisol-transfers-to-print-t-shirts/#comment-4215197263</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I really, REALLY, liked my press that had a swing away head. That cleared the entire view of the platen so I could look down straight over the artwork and get things perfect, without a heat panel just inches above my hands making me rush my adjustments. More expensive and I don't see many in use but worth looking into if you do finicky placements of transfers.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Art Anderson</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 27 Nov 2018 20:32:08 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
