Hi, am an aspiring footwear brand and designer, can my solution or problem solving method be to designer sexy footwear that's easy to put on with the hassle?
could you do a video on a checklist of things to complete (ie. a certain number of email list contacts, certain percentage of engagment, etc.) before launching so that new brands don't fall short or underestimate and can avoid wasting money and time? thanks!
We are involved with a new clothing line, we are leaning towards limited edition items, shirts and a jacket - suggested to mention “Limited Edition: Kickstarter 2024”? Are we missing the point? On the jacket it’s hidden in some graffiti.
Thank you for this, I have been think on how to quit my 9-5 job and face my fashion business, but the fear of how to sustain the business without backup plan won’t let me quit 😢
I’ve seen brands that it seems 100% sustainable, but if you go deep down into this concept you will find contradictories points. I found this sleepwear brand that it has these apparently all the sustainable caracteristics but they weren’t appealing visually at all. The most tedious designs I ever seen. If we don’t love and feel confortable and beautiful in it, we’ll barely wear it. So what’s the real point? 🇧🇷😌
Thank you so much for this video! All this information was very helpful! I'm looking to get grants to start my clothing brand. I knew this was a key element I needed to do so! Thank you again! Yes I also just downloaded your templet!! You're awesome!! ♥
Leaving my commenttt <3! This was sooo helpful! Hoping i get to print out the business plan! It was so helpful that this was short and to the point. No extra fluff talking to market yourself.... the video itself marketed you. It was short, sweet, gave me what i came here for, and helpful. One thought: maybe you can explain some of the terms in another video or put a link below. I went to go look for a few links to describe to me what some of the terms where, but you made it really easy to do that! Thank you for this video!
Im a wedding dress designer, I am firm on keeping manufacturing in USA. Ive successfully placed orders with boutiques but I’m overwhelmed producing in house by myself! I’ve tried researching but cannot find a manufacturer in the US specifically for bridal. Any benefits in the program for this challenge?
Thank you! I let someone talk me out of crowdfunding, but I feel in my heart it’s the best route for me. I missed an important initiation step: building community
I left you don some emails on my website and designs I created personally and thought it would be a good idea... Looking for exposure on creating the commercial on the style for the first time.... Lucius Rex.... Thanks
