Custom merchandise can be a huge business if you do it correctly.
Find something that people are passionate about, and learn how to market it to them.
Think of careers, fire fighters, police, union workers, anything that has a sense of brotherhood. These are huge, and you can create designs yourself.
You're looking for ideas that people want to display on their chest. Are you a dog lover? What kind of dog do you have and how can you create a design that will speak to your audience? This can be applied to any animal you can think of.
Not every design is going to be a hit, so you need to diversity. Cast a wide net and keep the winners and discard the losers.
Let's make a design for pipe fitters; you're going to need a phase.
"Pipefitter
Because badass isn't an official job title"
Combine that with a graphic, or find a creative way to display that with nothing else and you could potentially be making easy sales.
This is also an example of rebrandable phrases. If you find that this phrase has good feedback or sales, you can apply this to literally hundreds of other jobs, just replace Pipefitter.
So maybe you find that this phrase works and you want to create some more designs. No Photoshop skills? No problem, there are many people on Fiverr who can create t-shirt designs for like $10, so there really is no excuse.
And why stop at t-shirts? Once you find that passionate audience you can branch out. Coffee mugs, hoodies, keychains, necklaces, rings, the possibilities are endless.
Create a brand that offers more. Build a website and find related items on Aliexpress that add value.
Learn how to advertise of Facebook. Run 5-7 ads @ $5/day and cut the losers.
If you have no ideas, look around, test the market and scale the winners.
problem is that if you "like " a page in facebook it doenst mean you're part of it
lets say I like " police " and you advertise there
it doesnt mean im a police officer
what are your thoughts on that ?
