Keep up the hard work loco. I've learned a lot from you. Thank you for wisdom man. I got 2 questions for you. 1 do you design the images yourself? And 2, do you limit your customers to 1 or 2 colors? I just started recently, but it seems people only have a photo from a cell phone, and its always multi colored.
Man I'm so impressed with your journey , you really showed us all how to grind , and make it happen. Going to a powerwash to clean your screens shows true dedication to the cause. Big Props to you Reyes
Me encanta tu entuciasmo. Este negocio lo he tenido en mente por 2 años y he estudiado muchos videos he visto diferentes tecnicas. Pero lo que.me.hacia falta era ver este video tuyo. En donde muestras la realidad del.inicio de un negocio. Lo que es la.vida real de lo que cuesta cumplir tu objetivo y como usar los recursos con los.que cuentas sin gastar miles de dlls. Me.encanta tu positividad. Dios te bendiga y tengas muchisimo exito que cumplas tus objetivos al 1000% .
Ur giving me motivation to keep working, im a 16 years old boy, last year i invested on the cutter and the heat press and firstly started with decals and clothes, then i involved myself onto the heat transfer and sublimation, after that i started investing on screen printing and i swear at that time i was getting so much depressed that i left the bussines for a month. Then started again,i had so much stress that i sometimes i would want to get back on time and dont start the bussines. Now im in good condition thanks to you dude, you kept me motivated and to every teenager out there: ASAP start investing on ur hobbies before its too late
I’ve been watching your videos for a couple months now trying to figure out what I need to do t shirts and hats. You’re information has been most helpful. I took your advice on shopping with the manufacturer instead of Amazon so I would have access to customer service. Bonus! I just saved a boat load of money as well. Just placed my order an hour ago. Now all I need is a sublimation printer but that can wait for now. Thanks again for sharing your talents.
Hello Reyes and viewers! I have a couple of questions... 1. My first question is, can anyone direct me to websites where I can purchase fonts, clip art etc, that won’t cost me an arm and a leg lol. I would really like to sell T-shirts and other personalized items online but this kinda been stopping me because I don’t want to face any copyright lawsuits. 2. Also looking into starting sublimation. Any recommendations on printers? I want something easy to use but also something that will last and not outgrow the business too quick. Not sure if I’m explaining myself. Any recommendations will be highly appreciated! Thank you in advance and I love to see how your business and RU-vid channel keeps growing! I currently follow you on Facebook.
I love how Reyes likes to help his RU-vid community by making these videos and is giving people different ideas and has motivation like no other another good one Reyes 👍
Great content like always. I started my own t-shirt business from home approximately 10 years ago and glad to say its still goin’ pretty well. Also your videos inspired me to get back into the screen printing game after about a 7 year lapse because I was mainly making shirts only with heat-applied vinyl. Two years ago when I invested in a 4-color one station press since I previously still own some of screen printing tools such as exposure unit, screens etc., of course I had some hiccups from trying to relearn how to do it, but I had the knowledge of remembering how the steps go and from watching your videos I studied the tips & tricks. I was able to complete several successful screen printing jobs from family reunion orders, RIP shirts, soccer team etc. and I also did a 50 koozie order... and I also learned how to make hats and sticker decals. Just from watching your videos of how you ran your business definitely helped me in a way, so with that I just wanted to say I appreciate you. God Bless
love all the info about starting a shirt and decal business, i have everything i need apart from a vinyl cutter, so im saving for that and then ill start my new side hustle venture. thank you brother
What about the DTS (DirecttoScreen) printing machine called (GoccoPro QS-2536). You only need to stretch the screen, put it in the machine and it burns the image directly to the screen in High quality close to DTG image. No need of dark room, no emulsion, no water gun, no exposure or films negative, no pretreat, no expensive ink cartridges and no cleanup. And since DTS is screen printing, you can do Large orders and not one-offs like DTG. It's basically an hybrid machine that uses the Pros of both sides without the Cons. Despite all that, my question is: Should I Go for Traditional Screen Printing and work my way to DTS or just stay Traditional???
Great video man. Great story. Been a loyal watcher since the beginning. I love your story man . You are a hustler no doubt. Keep going can’t wait to see what happens next. Take care bro. Hello from Bakersield Yo.
I plan on starting a hustle like this, it really interests me. Honestly still nervous on going in on all the tools necessary to start though. My wife and I plan on doing this either for side money, or maybe, possibly building into a bigger thing.
Great stuff Reyes! I been following for a few years. Thanks for the excellent info, and sharing your experiences. You are helping a lot of people, including me, and saving us from many of the pitfalls in this printing business.
Daaaam Reyes you had me foo all this nice-talking at the begging about how to make it all that for the end to come and you say i sold it all and did something else 😅
A t shirt business actually. Gumball machine as well. You can resell on ebay...there's no limit. The most important part is to get started on something.
Plenty of businesses you can start for 1000. Main thing is being motivated, dedicated and educated. Dont reinvent the wheel. And always remember, get rich quick schemes are pipe dreams.
'Just want to say thanks because of you I started doing something I thought I wouldn’t just made my first 250 off my job selling ts with transfers from pro world ready to press ,.
im a local artist in coalinga making t shirts for my (few) fans here in the valley lol. im starting to make revenue off the shirts and hoodies more than im getting paid for streams. you inspired me to start and thats all you can really ask for. you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink. im currently using printify to help drop ship my items but im thinking about getting a press and just cutting the middle man out, any tips?
Great video i must say bro hope everyone is taking advantage of this but before i go Im starting my heat transfer business on a low budget and would like to know if i can use the HP 2775 PRINTER TO USE WITH MY INKJET HEAT TRANSFER PAPER??
Reyes, you are an inspiration to me brother. If you did it so can I! I'm stuck between doing sublimation, vinyl (layering) or go big with a DTG printer. Currently doing print on demand but the print shop is making more money off my customers, please guide me bro. Much love to you.
Reyes, we both know embroidery is super crispy! I see ur gear! Are u gonna try out an embroidery machine?? I’ve bought two cutters from USCUTTER and sold them 😂 may buy another.. anyway let me know how u feel about them!
Awesome! excited to see t shirt tutorials again. I have the same screen printing press, how do you register and align multi color designs on that press? Its so hard,, thanks reyes
Experience. You won't know what you can and can't do until you try it but always try to give yourself more time than you think you need until you know how much you can handle.
If you want to be a successful Entrepreneur, you'll need to develop the ability to set people straight (respectfully) and the closest people are the first ones you have to put on check. My sister was the first person who didn't believe in what I was doing. One day I had enough and told her she's either going to be quiet and let me do me or I'ma leave and not come around. She got the point but now she's my biggest fan. The quicker you grow the confidence, the more successful you'll become. Good luck
