I stated in July last year during the lockdown in the UK I was clearing out and selling old stuff on eBay raised quite a bit and was like what now, bought an amazon press and a cameo off eBay and started pushing custom work on instagram and fb. My initial goal was 1 shirt a month until Christmas somehow I managed at least one order every week since September! :)

Got my press just a few days ago. Like the the man said in the video , you have no choice but to figure it out. It's difficult to put your trust in something you are not sure will even workout. But you do anyway, because you have to. I have been watching almost everyone on youtube and everyone pretty much has the same message, KEEP TRYING! trial and error is the best teacher in life. I have ruined brand new shirts and made some pretty decent ones. I started because I got tired of providing my skill and talent for someone else and their dream. So here I am now on the same journey as many of you guys. Good luck , research and practice practice practice!!

Dude, thank you so much. I beat myself up all of the time and I'm trying to utilize all of my potential right now to do several things at once that are outside of my comfort zone. I keep hitting that wall of insecurity and my anxiety takes over and produces these barriers that are simple for the outside observer, but to me are so hard to break through. I'm not used to accepting failures from myself so I've avoided advancing for decades now, because of the fear of failure. I'm glad to see someone successful that says they were struggling with that insecurity of the unknown. Learning to take leaps of faith is kinda new to me, you gave me hope.
Your a real stand up dude to take the time to relay this information. Not alot of people care about helping the next man do anything but this little bit of information is huge to someone thinking about starting in this business. Thx homie you a real one bro 💯
Hello! I’ve been watching your videos for less than a month now, and your humility is very admirable. I wish you all the best in your business. I’ll keep following and watching your stuff!
Man I found this at the perfect time. This helped bring back my motivation. I feel less stressed now. Thank you 🙏
You have no idea the amount of motivation you just instilled in my heart! Thank you for such great and detailed advise. Good vibes.
One of the most genuine videos I’ve watched, felt like you were talking directly to me. Thank you so much for this 🙏🏽
Been researching since January. Probably the most straight-forward video besides The Rhinestone World. Subbing now. This was an excellent video. Going to go digging through your vids regarding starter heat presses. TRW told us about 619. I will definitely use them. He talks them up all the time about how great their customer service is. And he will NOT hype crap product/businesses. Glad to see you are on board as well. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey thank you. I'm from Jamaica and I just started my T-shirt business. I've made some sales locally so far. Still learning the equipments and the business. I've a heat press and a silhouette cameo 4.
Bro, it's because of you I believe I can do this and will never give up. It's only a few real ones in the the game and your that. Real. Love the videos. Hustlers do what Hustlers do, Ninja Shit Like. Thank You.
I am SO glad i ended up here. Just sharing your story makes me motivated. I have been selling for years and I’m definitely going to invest in this route. I always look forward to failing forward to success.
You didnt have to share all that but you did a lot of people owe u for this one including me salute to you king!!! That was real information you gave
You always put out videos that actually provide useful information. Thank you man I really appreciate it and I’m sure other heads do as well !
Respect. This is one of the best KZread videos I have come across in a very long time. All day.
Dude, you saved me a bunch of time, money, and headaches. Really appreciate your posts. I nearly purchased a ton of unnecessary stuff. Awesome.
This is probably the most real commentary I've seen on beginning print on demand items. I've done many of the things you talked about. Bought a 4 color screen printer, bought a vinyl cutter, bought a heat press, ordered samples from various heat transfer companies. What I haven't done is apply all of the things you advised doing, because I really didn't know where to start. Now, I do. Thank you.

Thank you so much for your sharing your experiences and being unselfish about them. Love your motivation. I have some of the equipment and still learning how to use them.
Started my apparel business 6 years ago with a 15 inch vinyl cutter. Since then I've added another 24 inch vinyl cutter and a roland BN-20 print and cut vinyl printer. I also have overseas full cut and sew sublimation manufacturing and my apparel line is doing well with new staff and different strategies I'm using to grow my business. R3 Sports Apparel

Sharp corners, vibrant colors, it has a great feel to it and it's perfect for one offs til you find something that sell extremely well. I haven't done stickers yet because I don't have the client's for it to make sense for me but it is a amazingly profitable business as well from what I've heard.

Thanks for all these great tips ! I can’t wait to start !
Hi Hustle Ninjas, first time watcher and forever subscriber now as I am currently in the planning phase of starting my own press biz. Unfortunately I've already sinned as I've already purchased a Cricut Maker 3, a heat press, and a sublimation printer. I'm currently working a full time job that I would like to get out of one day, this video was really insightful, thank you so much for it
Awesome video, thank you I am in the deep water now as I have been self employed for almost 2 years now and my sale aren't that great but I am still moving forward and always looking to reinvent myself if I need to.
I needed to hear this today! Thank you, Rich!
Good video man! I currently use printify and the quality is decent but I definitely want to bring everything in house after I have a couple successful scales so I can up the quality and branding!
Thanks for that Rich. I haven't produced a single shirt yet, but your pep talk has given me hope that it's at least possible.
Droppin mad game‼️🖤Love these vids

Made good money on a FM Expression heat transfer I designed years ago. Truly is convenient. Press it when you receive an order. No blank shirts wasted. I need to get that fire back!
Great video with great tips. Going in my Business KNOWledge playlist. 💯👏🏿

I started researching a couple of years ago because i ordered 4 hoodies on amazon and got prints out on them from a print company altogether i paid 200.00 so by looking at the design i said i bet i could do this. So i went to youtube and found Stan Banks Big Brando and your channel. Thanks to you for ask your content.
Thankyou so much! Im weeding away, and didn't even know you could just pay someone to print transfers! Gold!
Thanks brother for the information you have really helped me with your experience and knowledge of the business💯 I really appreciate it. I will pass it on also!!

@@dro258 I gave this advice to someone else in this video. Learn your equipment! Learn the different settings. Cutting glitter vinyl will not go through as easily as regular HTV for this I would advise to set the dial to custom so you can select the right type and the machine will adjust. For your brand if you have one print a couple up for yourself and start wearing it. Take pictures of yourself wearing it and post it to Instagram and Facebook. But most importantly you will find a ton of videos out there and the different ways of printing, HTV, embroidery etc etc DON'T OVERSPEND TRYING TO DO EVERYTHING UNTIL YOU MAKE MONEY OFF OF WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. These videos will leave you broke if you don't do it step by step. At the beginning, vinyl will be the cheapest way to go just remember how much your vinyl cost. Cutting and weeding will come with dead space cut and save you can you the scraps on a later project. Hope it helps.

For clarity on what I said about watching videos will leave you broke. Every video you watch is for our benefit of learning from their experience/mistakes. Some may be that of someone else who was in search for an answer and didn't see one that went into depth of how to, so they made one themselves again for our benefit. Then when you search you'll be tempted to get into that too. Not their fault it's just learning to do this will always bring you to something new. I didn't want to upset no one by not clarifying what I was trying to explain so I wanted to leave off with saying that.
