The entrepreneur's most fierce enemy is multitasking: It definitely brings some sort of ADD to your life, therefore the inability to focus and prioritize tasks in order to achieve success .
An excerpt from the book:
“Be regular and orderly in your life so that you may be violent and original in your work.”
Gustave Flaubert

Mon, 13 Jun 2011 08:00:00 -0700 How to Break Into the Custom Clothing Business? http://siennapacific.posterous.com/how-to-break-into-the-custom-clothing-busines http://siennapacific.posterous.com/how-to-break-into-the-custom-clothing-busines

If you want to start your own business, there're many things you may need to think about before launching it. It's recommendable to have a business plan, it doesn't have to be a long, complicated document, however, it should include all the variables that you need to consider, such as, target market, competitors, price strategy, marketing and promotion.

Now, what about if you want to start your own fashion line or clothing business? Probably, some people think that as far as your designs are good and creative, your success is guaranteed and you don't need to plan ahead. That's certainly not the case and suchlike any other type of business, you need to map your ideas in advance.

"Start by writing some type of business plan for your fashion line. This doesn't have to be a formal document that you would use to submit in hopes of getting funding for your business, it can just be a way for you to get your ideas down on paper. Write about what you want to create, who your designs are for (your target market), where you may be able to sell completed items, and what you might need to start your business (a website, a new sewing machine, etc). This business plan will help you remain focused on where you want to go with your new business. If you plan to get funding through a source such as a bank or small business administration loan, you will need to complete a formal business plan." - Ezine Articles -

Sat, 11 Jun 2011 10:00:00 -0700 The Handmade Baby Clothing Business is Booming! http://siennapacific.posterous.com/the-handmade-baby-clothing-business-is-boomin http://siennapacific.posterous.com/the-handmade-baby-clothing-business-is-boomin

If you have a baby or a toddler you definitely are going to enjoy today's post!

Even though, mass stores offer a huge variety of beautiful clothing and accessories for babies, sometimes you may feel that you can't find what you're looking for. It happens that you may need something different for a special occasion, such as your baby's christening or 1st birthday. You'll love to have the time or the skills to handcraft a dress or a blanket for your child, something that shows how much you love her and of course a garment that will make her look cuter than ever.

There's a solution to this dilemma! There're many people out there offering handmade clothing and accessories for babies and since most of them have an online store, it's very easy to search, to compare and to buy from the convenience of your home.

Alternatively, if you love babies and enjoy sewing maybe there is a business opportunity for you!

"One of the primary reasons sites like Etsy have become so popular is their stock of beautiful handmade baby accessories. Handmade clothing and other soft goods like car seat covers are very popular among parents since they want to give their babies the very best. Handmade items are often made with premium fabrics, for comfort and durability far beyond the quality of their mass-produced counterparts. As an added sweet feature, they're often finished with beautiful custom woven labels to show that they were lovingly made from scratch. By labeling their creations with custom made tags, sellers are not only adding a professional touch but also, they are starting to build a name or brand making easier for buyers to find them in the case they want to buy again." - Ezine Articles -
