Default made a sale

Well after many almost sales I finaly sold something i got an order for 13 shirts and when i delivered them i got more orders. This is a very part time thing for me but in about 4 years when i retire from the military i am hoping i could actually make a living at this i have alot to learn but i was wondering are most of you doing this part time or are there alot of full timers out there.

Thanks
Brian

My Congrats as well, I can't answer your question (other than I'm a part-timer), as I'm in the same boat as you - hoping to build into a full time money making gig, just wanted to say that every sale is a step closer to that goal. Keep up the good work!

I think we have several members on both sides of the "full time" "part time" fence

My wife and I are doing this part time, to say that it has quickly taken over my evenings. But this is good. I am now up until 1:30, 2 a.m. most nights getting orders out. Within two months business has taken off to where last month we shipped 250 items and we're doing better this month than last. Repeat customers are now common. I plan on quitting my job by the end of the year and doing this full time. We will be expanding into embroidery over the summer since our monthly income will now cover the lease payments on a one or two head machine.

Good luck with your business.
P.S., without my wife handling all the site listings and shipping, this would not be possible. I spend all my time on designs and pressing. A good helper is very helpful.

I feels good to get the first sale. I got a lot of sales by just showing people at work my website and they started buying shirts for their kids.
