 Re: Advice on where to go next...
You should probably make a wholesale catalogue up, make a few samples & take them round to all the shops that suit your market.
You could also try a market stall to help build awareness.
The quality of the shirts should suit the graphic - there's little point doing novelty slogans on very expensive garments, by the time a shop has doubled your wholesale price to sell them they'd be a lot more expensive than people will pay for that stuff. If your designs are a bit classier then people will pay more, which affords a better quality shirt.
$10,000 is ok money, print maybe 30 ea of your best 5 to 10 designs. Bring more in when you've sold some. A t-shirt label is a tricky thing to promote & takes some different ways of thinking. A Myspace page can be a great help. |
