Discuss the fun task of marketing a t-shirt shop. Where to advertise, link building, word of mouth, press releases, search engine marketing, keyword advertising, magazines, etc.
I work from home -and when i get time between doing art work for and making shirts i drive around handing out flyers& biz. cards-i was wondering if anyone has ideas of good businesses to target that frequently re-order-any suggestions?
A good place to start is offering specials to your existing customers, i.e. give them discounts on referring business back to you. Another good on-line area that's free to market your products is www.merchantcircle.com that way you can connect with other vendors (in your local area) and create coupons, newsletters, etc. all for free. They also have a paid service if you are looking for a more aggressive approach to marketing

I give out business cards and hang them up everywhere I go. I wear my own shirts and never hesitate to tell people what I do. I have been operating this way for over 13 years now and plan to continue on. .... JB
Businesses that reorder frequently are ones where employees get especially dirty, have a high employee turnover, order summer and winter uniforms, have seasonal help and frequent promotions (e.g.they need new T's to advertize their latest promotion).
what local businesses 2 target?
