		<description>I started an online shop www.tat2ts.com a year ago using Spreadshirt as my printer. My designs sell well in the marketplace but for some reason my website sales are not going well at all. Would someone take a look and see what you think should be done differently?
The Spreadshirt marketplace has proven to me that I have a market. Thats why I won't give up on the store. I know there is something I'm not doing right to get my conversions.</description>

		<description>I have been asked to design Tshirts for a clothing company. I have never done Tshirt designs for anyone, but myself. I was wondering if anyone knows how much I should charge? I was considering $200-$500 per design and $1 commission per shirt that sells? Any suggestions?</description>

		<description>Hi!!!
     Please am student of institute of professional studies(IPS),Ghana. And a member of SIFE(student in free enterprise) in my school and we to take on a project and we are asked to bring up an idea as to how to go by it and i will be very happy to help me as to how to go by it. The project is called the SWITCH PROJECT and it is explain below;
PROJECT NAME: THE SWITCH

TARGET GROUP: CHILDREN BETWEEN AGE 11&#38;13

INTRODUCTION / OVERVIEW

The nature of the Ghanaian economy is such that the public sector employs majority of the labour force. This is because people are unwilling to create their own jobs. 

OBJECTIVES

The project seeks to equip people to change their old mentality of working for someone to being their own bosses. 

The project also seeks to help target groups to develop an entrepreneurial mindset which will enable them venture into private enterprises and become great entrepreneurs.

The switch will help the target group to know that they can still become successful even when they drop out of school. This they can do by simply identifying problems around and solving them with an entrepreneurial spirit at a profit.

In addition, the current Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the Ghanaian economy is just (6.8) which mean that the economy still has a long way to go. For this reason, the SIFE -IPS team is hopeful that this project will help increase the country’s GDP by motivating the target groups to go into private business.
 So please help with an idea or method to use to make this project a successful one. Looking forward to hearing from you very soon. Bye for now and thank you very much.</description>

		<description>Simon,

The best way to get added to our blogroll is to become a good source for information on the internet and let us find you.  We do not add sites to our blogroll by request.  If you wish to link to us as a resource that is fine of course.</description>

		<description>Mike,

You have to do your own marketing with respect to putting designs on Cafepress.  CP doesn't give a hoot about you personally - nothing personal, it's just good business.  The best way to get your designs in front of visitors to CP is to promote your products and sell them so they appear high on the list of popular items for a given category.  Good keyword taggind is also important for people doing searches.

But generally speaking, the designs that sell the best are the designs CP is going to promote because they make more money promoting proven products.</description>

		<description>I notice that there are millions of designs on Cafepress.com.  How do you get your design in front of visitors to Cafepress?  How do I find an individual's site in Cafepress, or is that secondary to other marketing/traffic control techniques?

Thanks.

		<description>Hi,

I’m an MA student at the London College of Fashion and currently doing some research for an assignment and wondered if I could pick your brain? My topic is on consumer trends and my research is on the idea of technology being an enabler for consumers to play a more active role by producing their own content. I’m using the e.g. of the phenomenon of blogging and customisation facilities provided by sites like Cafe Press, Threadless and Spreadshirt.

Would really appreciate if you could provide some insights on:
a. why you think blogging has become such a phenomenon?
b. why you started a t-shirt blog and what do you offer and in turn receive from the virtual community?
c. why do you think people are getting into customisation especially with t-shirts? do you perceive its popularity and demand to change over the next 3 years? 

Finally as a t-shirt entrepreneur can you provide insights on your experiences with the technology that has enabled you to do business online.

Would really appreciate your reply. Thanks for your time and apologies for the nerdy questions!


Many thanks,
lainey</description>

		<description>Marc, there are lost of articles and links here to help you get started selling t-shirts online for little if any money.  Just take a look around and read.  Check out Cafepress.  If you cannot afford the monthly cost of just under $7.00 for a premium shop well ... then you've got bigger problems.</description>
