Arrogant Apparel
After months of correspondence we have secured a supplier I am happy with and have actually had some interest from some clients in providing lines for them...all before we've even printed a single shirt. I was concerned about rushing to market with only a few designs and not being able to supply our customers with an appealing and vibrant product to keep them coming back. So before we launched I ensured I took some time to learn as much as I could about the business - attending conventions, speaking with designers, suppliers, retailers and manufacturers. I have aligned myself with a great designer in Las Vegas and photographer in the Los Angeles area. We have come up with a plan that will ensure vertical growth coupled with a broad range of designs and 5 different lines - Couture, Sports, Novelty, Fight Wear, Charity. Another revenue stream will come from supplying small companies, events, bands with their own lines and designs.
I've got an awesome girl helping me with the biz plan and I've managed to convince the boss that it'll fly - I've got seed money and a credit card...:-)
It's an aggressive start but I thought "What the F*ck...Go Big or Go Home" I've seen people my age simply give up on starting something new dismissing it as too risky or foolhardy.
I have my supporters and detractors...more importantly I have my gut feeling and the feeling is good. Time will tell.
