Hey All,

I'm trying to find a way to support myself and still be able to focus on my health issues. It's hard for me to keep a job because I can't always guarantee consistancy with a reg 9 to 5. I've been trying to find ways to work from home. I'm really interested in making this a business. But I guess I was wondering if this business is one that I'd have to have a second job to support myself or would I be able to do this full time and not run into many financial issues?

You can do almost any job/industry full time and not run into financial issues with the right experience, timing, advertising, and product.

Conversely, you can fail at almost any industry with lack of the above.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that your question doesn't have any easy answer.

Sure people are making a living in many different parts of the t-shirt industry, but there also people who aren't doing as well.

It's not the industry that will decide your success, but your own motivation, skills and product.

Thank you for your input. I'm going to continue to work at. See where it takes me. Good points.

I think the most frustrating part is trying to get customers when it comes to screen printing. Don't just think you can open up a website and they will come.
Go out and meet people and make a point to bring up your business in every conversation.
