HOW TO GET A WHOLESALE ACCOUNT FOR YOUR CLOTHING BRAND
How to get a wholesale account for your clothing brand. In this video I talk about 4 of the vendors that I use for my clothing blanks and how to apply for their wholesale accounts.
I've talked about retail and wholesale prices through my previous clothing compare videos, but never explained how to actually get access to the wholesale prices, thus the purpose of this video being created.
Check out my instagram brand:

Love your content. Great info and love the way you do your mocks! Also, I been trying to reach your guy at Epoc after watching your podcast ep. I know they are slammed and not taking clients, but could you pass my name Robert Everett to them. I left them a couple messages. I think my brand will stand out for them and possibly we can get creative on that 💰. Please pass my info and much respect!
SEAGGS we need you bro. You should do more videos like this. Hint: Get behind the opportunity and you dominate that market. Your contents value is far greater than most that cover these topics. Reach out if you need help. I have a line coming out with Malik Yusef...and your content puts me on, I never knew this world, so selfishly...come back

Dropped a like cause it was simple and straight to the point. Preciate the knowledge bro
Pretty sure that a wholesale rep/supplier will reach out via email. I reached out via text after that and made the process of getting to know the rep very easy! You then will most likely be given a confirmation and will have to give a source of ID. And Independent clothing usually requires you sign via docusign or something similar to that. Was super skeptical of giving ID because I am new to this.. but glad to know other companies are requesting the same! Great vid and hope this comment helps others

Thanks a lot!
Any estimate on how long it took you to get a wholesale account with AS Colour? I set up a wholesale account with Independent and Rue Porter easily but I haven’t heard anything from AS Colour or even a confirmation that they received my application. It’s been about a week so I was wondering if you knew if your application got denied do they even let you know? Thanks for the high quality vids I really can’t express how much these help so many people!

Restricts starting a business? Nah you shouldn’t be in danger. Look up what the details actually say about your property’s policy. Maybe they don’t want employees or tons of inventory there? If you’re running an online business it shouldn’t take up that much room. You could also pay for a storage elsewhere for inventory if you need to. But applying for those documents won’t affect anything, they wouldn’t even know that you have those documents
Hey, do you know if an LLC is needed to register for these wholesale accounts? Like for ITC for example, they want a business name. Does that mean I need to have a registered business to access that?
Starting off do you reccomend getting a sellers permit or using something that wont require that to test the waters

@@brendanwolter8349 unfortunate? You’re not paying sales tax when you buy wholesale goods because the tax burden is now placed onto you as a reseller. Your customer is the final designation of that product so you collect sales tax and pay it. It’s not fun by any means like with any tax lol, but it’s how the business world really works. Look up what a “tax nexus” is. Most online brands only have a nexus in their own state. So you pay sales tax on your home state’s orders only which does lessen burden a bit.

Your sellers permit will be linked to your state’s sales and use tax department. They SHOULD have some kind of portal or UI for you to pay your sales tax quarterly. You can charge your consumers sales tax, or you can not charge them it. Either way you have to pay that sales tax back. But you need to research if your business has a tax nexus in your state and which orders you pay taxes on; I didn’t cover that because that wasn’t the purpose of the video, but it’s easily findable on google (your tax nexus that is)
