 Re: One stop shop VS. printing shop VS. buying your own...
I wanted to open a website selling my own designed t-shirts. I bought the kit and do the printing 'in-house' because I knew that I wouldn't be able to carry a lot of stock and I found that unless I bought lots of each design, I was left with pennies of profit on each sale if I outsourced the printing.
My plan was (and still is) to print my own sales and at the time when I feel comfortable enough with my own screen printing abilities, I'll offer the service to other businesses. At some point this should allow me to give up my 9-5 and concentrate fully on the t-shirts. |
