    Lightbulb Silly idea?

    Hello: I am new to this site/forum because i just recently thought of an idea to potentially sell.
    Are you familiar with the "Big Johnson" and "Absolute" T-Shirts? If so I am pretty positive that I have the next 'big hit' idea of silly, yet oh so ever popular (for at least a guarantee of two years) Tees.
    The problem - I am not sure what to do with this idea or who to share it with.
    I really feel that it would be of interest to someone, i just don't know who...
    Any help?

    Hi Brandela...

    I checked out big johnson & absolute t shirts on google. So you want to sell tshirts? something cool and catchy design idea to put on tshirts?

    Maybe this is the direction you want to take? but what about supplies? who would be making the t-shirts, shipping it, advertising it? etc..

    Many companies and individuals sign up for cafepress.com It is well established online merchandising place where all you have to do is create your own design and post it on t-shirts, mugs, bumper stickers etc..
    They do the printing, shipping, and just pay you commission checks. It's pretty cool, check it out. Best thing is, you can have your own page with your items listed.. that just leaves you to promote/sell.

    Hope that helps you in some way?

    You may want to contact the big T-Shirt sellers and sell them your designs, this will allow you to just focus on the design side (if that is what you do) and let them take up the expense of production/stock carrying etc...

    Sure you won't get as much money but then you will not have all the on costs also..maybe worth thinking about initially to give capital to take it to the next stage..

    Copyright your slogan. Make about 500 and sell them on ebay. If they become popular someone will contact you.
