hope you could give me a ballpark figure and a background of your product and market...
Absolutely I can not a problem First a little background. My product is made up of both inkjet transfers as well as plastisol transfers. I focus in a few areas mostly relating to military, spiritual, as well as slogan type shirts. I run listings on ebay so for me it did not take to long at all to sell my first it sold in 2 days. Rough estimates of my ebay sales are around 100 / per month sometimes more sometimes less @ between 8 and 10$ each. Here lately that seems to be falling off a little. But do understand my sales on ebay are not my primary focus. I list my items there and let them sell themselves. I concentrate most of my efforts going to festivals, fairs and selling through first person marketing (wearing shirts with my logo and information on them) I certainly hope this helps some If you need more information please don't hesitate to ask.
