Title: T-shirt company
Post by: joelite44 on May 25, 2018, 11:53:36 AM: Hello BG users.

I am in the situation of starting a t-shirt company. I know we have been through this topic but I can smell something coming.

These are the first shirts we printed.

The meaning of the word Recio is fast in spanish, we use the word Recio to make reference to something or someone being overly CRAZY from drugs to stupid situations.

The first batch of t-shirts only sold 2 and the others got lost among "friends" while I went to jail for DUI.

Please let me know what you think and what you expect from a t-shirt company you like.

Only one has sold, to my riding buddy. I still havn't defined which niche I will be targeting.

"Recio" merely describes the personality of a ADHD child which has no control of its actions, It is living with whatever happens. If you comprehend this you will like our brand. If you have a cookie cutter personality you most likely won't relate.

How it sells and what designs and types of shirts that will work depend on what market you go for.
Based on the type of shirt and design I would say it could work if you want to sell it to BMXers or people in similar groups that you hang out with.
Sales would best work if you sell it at jams or similar.

If you wanna sell it locally at a store or similar I would recommend a different type of shirt depending on how people dress where you live.

Thanks for your input. I need to aim my market since this is a company fueled by bmx only.

No not prision just a comissary if you can call it. You get caught drunk and driving and you either pay a fine to leave or pay up with staying 48 hours. You still have to pay for your car impoundment.
