    Wow! Thanks for the video. Glad I found you because I’ve been thinking of starting my own t-shirt business. I’m just waiting on saving enough money for a sublimation printer. I never thought about having a budget or designating an area in my apartment for keeping/storing the shirts. I’m just in the research stages right now. Going to soak up all the info I can find so I don’t make too many mistakes.

    Hi Alex,
    My fiancé and I just filed a LLC for our online POD business. We kind of jumped into it without fully doing our research. What advice would you give as far as getting an attorney, accountant, and registered agent?
    We haven’t made any sales yet and we’re in the process of making our marketing platforms. Should we wait until we start generating revenue to do all of that or is it deemed necessary?

    Hi hun, I need help! Oh my goodness. I’m selling military shirts And using the profit to send care packages overseas to deployed troops who aren’t getting mail. It’s blown up but I’m not keeping profit so I’m overly exhausted lol! No funds for a mani 😆. I need help being organized. How to get invoices instead of just having them pay with Venmo, PayPal or cash app. PayPal does invoices but they are $$! Do you have a group to ask questions. I feel disorganize and overwhelmed. Between the shirts I’m packing care packages for the troops. So I’m busy both ends. To date I’ve sent 17 boxes. My husband wants me to blog this but I don’t have time 😭.

    Please, please, please, advise people to RESEARCH ANY COMPANY THEY PLAN TO DO BUSINESS WITH BEFOREHAND.
    Teespring, for instance, is NOT accredited with the Better Business Bureau. They have 189 complaints. Twice my designs were NOT saved, and I’m pretty tech savvy, so I feel sorry for anyone else who went through what I went through fighting to keep their website from hacking my device. I’m so glad they didn’t get any of my money!

Do you just make up random shirts and post them for sale somewhere? I hope you can help. Thank you in advanced. I appreciate it.

    Im looking into starting a custom t shirt business & I called Texas Comptroller and they told me I don’t have to collect sales tax from customer if I buy shirts at regular price with sales tax included. The wholesaler or whoever sold me the product is responsible for paying the sales tax to the state. My question is do I still have to make quarterly sales tax reports? & when I write off shirts as an expense will I be writing the total price with sales tax included or just the Regular price without the sales tax?
