Discuss the process of getting your t-shirt line into brick and mortar stores and selling offline. Topics include industry tradeshows, events, line sheets, sales reps and other retailing tips and advice.
So im looking for a place in or around Sacramento, CA to sell my shirts to. I have heard of someplace in the mall, but my Semi-Rival kinda already has his clothes in there, so i kinda want to find somewhere else if i can.
Really anywhere would be great, im just based out of Sac
its hard to place my line in a certin catagory, its probably within the skater area, scene, check out my myspace and store if you can, youl probably get a better idea
and im not sure about the store, its in a mall in sac.

Keep in mind that if it's hard for *you* as the brand owner to know where your t-shirts should fit, it will be MUCH harder for the retail store to know if your t-shirts will fit in their store. They have lots of brands to carry, so it will be important for you to be able to *sell* your line to them.
Defeating your Semi-Rivals can easy get a big market. Pls trust your own designing, just try it,it is a tactics of market.
If your prices are ok, send a info/price sheet to me.
I have no idea on where or what in the Sac area but regarding the 'semi rival'...remember there is always room for quality...no matter how many others are around
