Default Re: Marketing my first t-shirt

What you need to understand is that the people who visit your Hookah website are there to purchase a Hookah, not a TShirt that says Hookah. People are smarter than we give them credit for. What you are attempting to do is basically give a potential or former customer the "quick thought" purchase online. It just doesn't work that way online. It's easy to sell magazines and candy in a waiting line at WalMart. But, you won't get the screaming kids telling their parents to buy the "Hookah'd" Tshirt when they are shopping at your Hookah site.
My advice for you would be to prey on your existing customers. Let them know that the shirt is available, and offer a discounted price with the purchase of a new Hookah. The Hookah is where the money is at, not the TShirt.
