Learning the bases -Sales, Marketing, Copywriting, Social Media on the run for Fashion

[Carlos Lemos]

So, I want to go into the fashion business, there isn't a lot of discussion here, but as you all know any brand turns fashionable through marketing, story telling and a lot of advertising.

Can you help me with starter resources on this subjects? I have general concepts, but I don't know how to make them happen.

P.S. How do you choose the name for your brands? This is burning my head for 4 days, I'm inclined to call it "Capitalism" and every model has a currency, just because I love the irony and the contrasense in the world and my product plan would be, openly sell 20 $ products for 100, basicly every inflated base price times 5 and be a money artist instead of a street artist (alec-monopoly or banksy), but in the grey of the art, I would be defending money makers as freedom fighters while I selled openly overpriced limited edition items. This is how crazy it's driving me, this is so crazy that I'm tempted to try it and apply concepts of guerrilla marketing, marketing, copywriting , etc.

Before entering this venture I would take some time to network and get some circles in the business. Why not put together a few prototypes and push them to some mom and pop just to see how they sell? This is what I did years ago to find out if I really had a good idea or not. Once you start to sell a few work the media to create a "buzz". Be different and creative that's what makes good entrepreneurs!
