Discuss the fun task of marketing a t-shirt shop. Where to advertise, local marketing tips, word of mouth, press releases, search engine marketing, keyword advertising, magazines, etc.
Hi, I've just started my website seeling T-Shirts and was wondering how long it has taken people to start selling? From past experience how long has it taken you and can you reccommend any sites which can build up my traffic e.g. forums or blogs etc.
Hi Marcus, it really depends on how much marketing and advertising you do (and how good your product is)
Some make sales the first day, some never make sales.
Here are some marketing tip threads that should help you. Be sure to read through them, as they answer many of the common questions you have about how to start, how to target, where you advertise, etc:
Thanks for these tips. I've had my cafepress shop for about 7 months now, and only manged to sell about 10 shirts. Admittedly, I've slacked a bit on posting new designs, but I still need some help.

It has been about two months since I launch my online t-shirt site. I have not had any sales yet. I am now trying to get traffic to my site. I have started a Facebook group, a blog where I blog about t-shirts, participating in forums, free online advertisement (don't have a budget yet ). I am also using Trafficswarm to drive traffic to my site. Hopefully my effort will bring in some sale.
