You probably should have written a business and marketing plan before buying the equipment. It will be tough to compete with Zazzle anytime soon, as they are already established. Try to set smaller, more realistic goals. Start local, reach out to some local schools, sports teams and clubs. Try to sell at your local flea market or mall. And do some online marketing, blogging and social networking to help drive traffic to your website.
