    Finally someone who is actually willing to provide truthful and informative information that people can use! A lot of people are so stingy on helping other people it’s ridiculous. Thank you so much for this Gabe! Nice work I know your new stuff is going to be great!

    Brief Summary
    Brand Pillars
    1. What problem you want to solve (see a gap in a market)
    2. Who’s your target audience (ideal person to buy this item, age range, hobby (golf, horse riding)- give them a name)
    3. What’s your elevator pitch (what’s your clothing about - a nutshell what your business about)
    4. What word describes your brand best (sporty, retro)
    Do not rush, take couple of days if you need to.
    1. Apparel or Clothing (apparel branding on someone clothing, clothing branding on own creation)
    2. Put everything in a scrap book or a single document for you to keep track where you have been to (texture, style, logo, everything)
    Do not rush. It’s ok if you don’t have a logo yet.
    Do not spent so long in logo. Product branding and quality does the branding, not the logo.
    Create your master piece.
    - you don’t have to be good at drawing (just see other people’s template, or ask people to do it)
    - ask that type of person about their opinion (can go to fivr etc)
    Manufacturing
    - tech pack and spec sheet
    - tech pack: details of your product showing inner drawings (the stictch, placement of logo)
    - spec sheet: measurement need to create product (chest, shoulder, pocket, length)
    - put money aside for people to do for you, if necessary
    - fabric: go online to fabric shop, can pick what material you want. Understand what kind of fabric does. (He found on Alibaba and Clothing Conventions in London)
    7 tips to stop you from getting burnt
    1. Go to Alibaba and see, create a shortlist, tell them you have measurements, design and send them. (You will receive bunch of it)
    2. What’s your MOQ (Minimum Order Quantify)
    3. Show as much detail as possible
    4. If they ask for money, block them
    5. If they ask for more detail
    6. Ask to see actual product picture (see if they can give you the same thing as their picture)
    7. Video call them in WhatsApp (see their office or workplace environment)
    Then ask for sample prices (ask them to give you sample product before they ask you to sign on bulk order)

    incredible info. I wrote up a business plan a few months ago and have been following it well. But every now and then I like to go to youtube and see where everyone else is at and what they have to say about these things. It keeps my mind fresh and motivated. Everything I have on my business plan is something you have said. It's nice knowing that I have the same ideas, mindset, and experience as someone so much further than me. You have also offered up some information that I did not know of yet so there is a lot of value in this video for me. Awesome work, awesome character, and awesome attitude. Thanks for an incredible video. I hope someone whos scared of the industry or skeptical of who to listen to reads my comment and gets reassured that this is great information.

This video has helped a lot, even though I live in America and the manufacturing process may be a tiny bit different idk but still. Also, if you could make some vids on how to start up your own online personal training in detail like you did this video, that would surely help ya boi out. Thanks again mai guy!!!

I already got my sketches but do I have to find the fabric first or should I go to the Manufacturer and decided them about the fabric?
