I am SOOO excited. The timing of this is PERFECT. I had not yet seriously considered going to an ISS show until we recently decided to branch off into some different embellishment techniques -- rhinestones, transfers, etc... I am NOT a screenprinter; we have a line of apparel. But I'm clueless on just about anything except screenprinting...
So I saw the ISS show as I was looking at a company website. And then I see this new workshop:
W03 How to Start an Apparel Decorating Business (New!)
Speaker(s):
Jimmy Lamb, Tajima USA Sales & Support by Hirsch Intl.
Track: Business
For: Entrepreneurs looking to enter the decorated apparel business (100)
This extended seminar will introduce you to all aspects involved in starting an apparel decoration business, whether from your home or a commercial location. This course provides a unique overview, giving you the opportunity to evaluate the business opportunities and learn what steps to take to lay the foundation for successful embroidery, screen printing, or digital garment decoration.
In this session you will learn:
• How to find customers
• How to price for profit no matter which decorating discipline(s) you choose to offer
• How to take advantage of the lastest technology to make your business as run as efficiently as possible
Sounds like a really great opportunity. I just hate that I didn't see it before Aug 1... It costs more now...
It sounds like a great opportunity to get a good overview. We've only been going for a few months now and it sounds like we'd get a lot of useful info.
Any feedback? Thanks!
