Selling T-Shirts Online

Hello!

My name is Syd Hancock and I am setting up an online business selling t-shirts and other clothing and apparel as well as things like mugs and other gifts.

Maybe you are like me – you’ve looked at many of the internet business ideas going round and thought ‘”yes, that’s great but a lot of them seem to be how to make money online by selling ideas about how to make money by selling ideas about how to make money…” and so on forever.

Nothing wrong with doing that, I’m looking into that as well, but what about providing something tangible, physical things that people also want and need?

Well the great thing is that we can do that just as easily as selling ebooks to download.

There are businesses that will produce and ship the goods all over the world for you. You just take the orders and pass them on so you don’t need to be tied to running a mail-order business or need lots of warehouse space or capital.

That’s what I’m going to use – they are known as PODs or Produce On Demand services.

I am also studying successful internet marketers who specialise in ebooks and information selling and looking at ways of adapting their stategies to a business selling physical items.

Having a blog to raise profile and gain interest is one of the first things the mentors suggest.

I’m not looking for quick riches. I believe that it could take at least a year for my projects to become established. Patience is an essential quality or, as the I Ching put it many centuries ago: ‘Perseverance Furthers’.

This blog is a record of my project. If you are also setting up an online business, or thinking about it, please feel free to read and leave comments and let’s support each other on the ride – the more the merrier!

This is my first real blog so learning how to set up and manage it is one of the first things I’m doing so there will be rough edges for a while. But that’s OK too. First of all I’m putting some content up so the search engines, and readers, can start to find it. I’ll tidy up all the presentation over the next few days.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
