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 -

Don't forget to consider clothing labels for your creations. They will add a touch of style and will help customers to remember your name when they want to buy again your products. By adding custom woven labels to your designs you're building your brand and setting up the basis for future growth.
