    Investor

    I think you are still needing to give more information to be honest, you are valuing your business at around £75,000 and although you have very good profit margins per unit that means jack all if you aren't selling any. I personally won't be able to invest but if you are looking for investment...

But to get your creative juices going some more I am also looking to start another site to go alongside the T-Shirts and after a period of time evaluate which is more productive...

    Making it look exciting

    Hi Nicky, i refer to my earlier post about whether a design company which specialised in customising existing templates would be something that interested you. What would you consider a realistic budget that you would allocate to a really good looking website?

    Making it look exciting

    OK, so you may be a good person to ask for this.....I have been thinking of a potential business idea where you would be the ideal target customer. I am assuming you dont have the money to spend £650 or so on a web designer. Would you consider spending for example £80 - £100 on a 'designer' who...

    Copyright Issues

    Hi, I am considering starting an online shop selling various prints and canvas prints but am unsure on some legalities. I am proficient in Photoshop and plan on using this to do a few things. One of which is creating montages and 'pop art' prints to be framed or displayed on canvas. I know...

    Where do you stand on "mates' rates"?

    I think the best way to deal with friends/family is to do the project at cost but do tell them that paying customers will hold priority, if they want it done quickly/same time as everyone else they will have to pay proper moola but you are happy to help them out at cost as long as they are...

    Newbie to the forums

    I agree with you that there are a lot of these sites out there but they all look fairly simple. The other thing i see with regards to the competition out there is that they are fairly heavily 'money making' orientated. I wonder if there is a market out there for local offline businesses. The...

    Affiliates is it a good way to get business?

    I think that using affiliates is a good option slightly depending on what you are selling. You have to make sure that the commission you offer is inviting enough yet at the same time doesn't harm your profits. You have to figure out how much extra revenue you will achieve by using affiliates and...
