Beautiful video bro thank you for the inspiration. I am trying to lay the foundations of my brand currently I have graphics ready And a small following, However I did have a couple of questions, first where do you guys get your blank garments from? Also is everything you guys do handmade? or do you have some shirts that are digitally printed(in boxes) and lastly what steps would you take If you were to start your business over and grow from the ground up again, much love from Cali🤘🏾 keep going brother ! (if at all possible I would love to schedule a zoom call or something of the sort I have many questions if not all love!)
Appreciate the kind words. I started out getting wholesale garments from ssactivewear, they ship fast and have a huge selection of garments. I currently love Los Angeles Apparel and have transition to using it more since the quality is great but bit expensive. I work with few screen printing shops for some production, and I handle some of the more complex printing like all over printing. I hope to do everything in house in the near future. Also, reach out on insta and we'll set that call. Much love, hope this helped
I’m from Colorado bro. I went and got my LLC and your right it is hard to start up a business, especially in the economy we live in today. I’m not even sure where else to go from here networking seems to be a good start. I have my own screen press machine I just don’t have a building I could start doing my own work in that’s where I’m stuck right now.
You guys are doing great don't rush do it slowly. I love your art style and formula of doing it. Im learning just like you guys. I manufacturer my clothing pieces but shirts and hoodies I just order blanks. This business is hard as fuck being artist is completely different
11:20 BRO thank you so much! I needed to hear that. Every time I'm about to take a risk I tell myself I got this gut feeling that its a bad idea 9 time out of 10 I'm usually right. But, I keep taking risk and I needed to hear that somebody else feels the same way I do when taking a risk.
Hey brema, yeah the topic about making the sacrifice of running a brand in comparison to working a 9-5. You are so right. People think it’s fun and all but right after uni, I made up my mind not to work a 9-5 job and go straight into starting my own personal brand. NO LIES it’s never easy compared to a 9-5 job. I am actually currently “stuck” creatively with my brand and I feel I need better restructuring due to the fact that I have had low turn out sales and my releases thus far. It’s like I don’t even know what I am doing anymore but I know I got it and I sleep on RU-vid trying to gain knowledge and trust me your page helps me a whole lot in my restructuring phase and I urge any and everyone one with such passion to keep up the hard work. Fashion is my passion and I CAN NEVER drop it for a 9-5. Btw well done BREMA!🔥
Things Get Difficult When Others Thoughts For What They Think Is Best For You Their Opinions And Fears Of Their Own Begin To Influence Your Thoughts Into Thinking Somethings Isn’t Possible Even Jumpstarting A Brand And That Can Be The Hardest Part Especially If It Comes From The Ones You Love That Can Really Drain You On The Journey If You Let It.
It takes a lot of focus, patience and discipline to run a clothing brand from the ground up. It can be very stressful and at the same time fun and exciting.
Dam! This hit home bro...its so much work that people don't see and you mentally never stop working. What I would like to know is how you get people from the "I love this" stage to the "I just ordered this" stage? Weird to me..if I see something I want, I get it..🤷♂️
Awe ..i really like what yall are doing..showing love all the way from south africa..itd be dope if you would get into yalls graphic designing process on adobe photo,actually your whole designing process..
Love the brand, keep up the amazing work! What is the best efficient way of making designs. A tutorial video on all the work that goes into designing a piece before screen printing would be very helpful.
I truly appreciate your brand and all the people that make each drop possible. I am in LA and I am looking forward to meeting your gentlemen and also assisting and helping you guys reach your potential level. As a fellow creative we have to encourage each other, inspire each other, and also keep the village around each other to grow each other. Blessings!
Brema! As a brand owner myself, I would say to use your data from past drops to predict future orders. Start producing even before the drop so that you ship out next day! it means a lot to customers when they get their product right away! keep up the good work.
I remember modeling for UL when it was first getting started in 2014/2015.. Crazy to see how much success you got too! I got my own clothing brand now and would love to collab💫🤟🏽
props to you and the crew. wow, guts bro. It's scary to start a business venture but, you guys have got this down so good luck on your next location. Keep up the hard work. Mad respect, just wow. People don't realize how hard it is to get this kind of work done.
Bro you are so inspiring thank you so much for your content and your creations it has lite a fire under me i thought was gone. so once again thank you my brother and blessings on the journey
Great inspirational video. We've been in custom screenprinting for 10 years now and been doing our own brand. It's really hard to run a brand, but comes with a reward within when you see someone random wearing a shirt you made / printed. I love that you're so passionate about the brand. Just a hint: try to go more toward eco-friendly spectrum of running the brand, a lot of unnecessary plastic, especially those mailers. Also organic cotton, sustainable wear... that would add so much to your whole brand idea.
It’s hard as hell. I am in a position where I’m trying to decide pursue my visual dreams or stay on a job I have zero passion for… 🙌🙌🙌 wishing you continued success!
Brema, Love your vision and where your going. Your a quiet soul with massive energy that's subtle. I'm inspired by you to keep my own eyes on the prize. Thanks for your transparency 🙏🏽
Preciate the inspiration, information, and insight. Videos definitely helping with the vision to launch my brand STANC3S; keep going with the brand as well as the videos.
Thank you for sharing your process! It's truly an inspiration. I self-published my first poetry book in November 2020 and started my own merch line in January. I'm not sure where I'm going with it, but I think I'm creating it along the way. Looking forward to watching more videos. :)
Brema, Wow your content is so inspiring and unique. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I hope to start a brand really soon would love to fly out to see the process in person!
So motivating and a huge motivation for my brand. Love your tutorial videos. They have really helped improve my screen printing skills. Much love 💙 -Scrap.
BROOOOO!! I REALLY LIKE THIS VIDEO!! IT INSPIRED ME TO DO BETTER! I started my own clothing brand too here in the Philippines. It's really hard but fun at the same time! More blessings to us!! All love!
BREMA !! CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO WHEREBY YOU GOING INTO DETAIL ON HOW YOU ACTUALLY PRINTOUT THE DESIGNS , EACH LAYER , BECAUSE IVE NOTICED YOU USE TWO LAYERS FOR THE BUTTERFLY HOW YOU DO YOU PRINT THE OUTER AND INNER LAYER
hey brema! could you do a day in a life as a brand owner and one of the few workers who work for your brand? im really interested at the things that you do outside of the brand too!
Hey Brema! I was wondering on if you could kinda explain to us the process of what you used to getting unfinished legacy started and the trial and tribulations of starting up?
Love your content dude! I really want to start my own clothing brand here in the UK but have no idea where to start. Could you do a video of how to start a clothing brand I e. From initial idea and then the steps to take to get started? 🤘💪🔥
Congratulations on the Brand and thank you for the videos. Is there a video on prep process for creating a new drop/ received orders. This was really insightful video. I appreciate the conversation on Anxiety vs Fear! And the Risk involved in producing.
I have hit him on even on IG about that over two weeks ago, I'm still waiting on a response.. He's really good & has inspired me as well but doesn't share other important information 😒
@@jacquelinerivera6944 yeah bro thanks for replying to my message, I too am needing help with this situation especially because I live in a state and country that doesn’t have good resources
dope video im in the process of building and im currently working on my t shirt pattern I would love if you could do an deep dive on the process of blanks and or where you get your blanks from that would be really dope because a lot of these blanks on the market are low-key trash for a clothing brand
I love watching your videos! I launched my brand in March. I started out with HEAT Transfer Vinyl and now I’m transitioning to screen printing. Much Love!
How are you Marketing your business? I found you on IG organically via reels suggestion. Then again on youtube you just popped up and I saw JMB shirt and yourself. Im an artist/illustrator/cannabis cultivator so brand and marketing is always on my mind. Ive wanted to convert some art to merch for years now so tapping into your channel has been really motivating. Love your work and all that youre doing! Bless!
I’m an up and coming clothing designer with a clothing line as well. Can you make a video on how to stay organized and motivated when you aren’t really getting as many sales or even a video on how to properly promote
These videos help me keep on pushing with my clothing brand , definitely a stressful process and grind but the high of accomplishment with every drop makes it all worth the wild, appreciate you and your team for providing upcoming creatives with a insight on the real of starting and maintaining a brand !
Love your channel Brema! You’re an inspiration, I’ve been wanting to start something like this with my art and creativity. Like you said this is harder than a 9-5 because it’s your business. If you don’t get up and put that work in you wouldn’t have it at the end of the day. Keep going man love the energy as well as the art process this is definition of organic.
