Since I stumbled upon this site I have been brainstorming many different ideas that could lead to fastlane potential.
MJ DeMarco's book has been great so far, and I plan to have my teenage sons read it once I am finished btw.
I have used the idea analysis tools MJ mentions in his book, and after weighing a few different business model's I have come to the idea of starting a clothing and accessories online business that caters to combat sports (mma, boxing, etc.)
This idea is obviously not original, as I have found MANY others already in this field. This idea is new to me though, as I only discovered it days ago. The top names in the industry are very successful, but with a sea of others out there it makes me question what is the real potential of this business model and if the pursuit is worthy.
After much research of this forum for related topics I found a couple that were related, but were more geared for tee shirt companies. Although they were helpful, they are not specific.
My experience in clothing is none. The key reasons I am drawn to this is because it has potential to reach millions, could be completely an online store, and relatively low investment to get started and test the waters. Also I do practice these sports myself, but I am just a regular joe. Some gear I have used need refining in my opinion, and this is another reason I am drawn to this.
I have a couple names for the clothing line in the works, and artwork logo's as well. I know I am just tire kicking the idea, which is why I am asking you guys if any here have experience with this business model? I do not want to waste time with something that experienced members here would not recommend.
Any and all comments are welcome.
Thanks
