We mean it. Become great at juggling. If you plan to enter and succeed in this business of designing, sourcing, manufacturing, selling and shipping garments, then realize that as you are sourcing production, you\u2019re selling what you are producing. And as you\u2019re doing both those duties, you\u2019re designing the next product, as well as arranging for shipments and distribution, writing new orders, approving lab-dips, sourcing trims, and more. You need to keep many balls in the air at the same time to be successful. You don\u2019t want to concentrate so heavily on production that you don\u2019t have any sales, or so much on sales and shipping that you don\u2019t have any new products designed to ship next season. Also, start small \u2013make small first production lots the first time. Small mistakes cost smaller amounts of money. If you make 1,000 garments and order yardage for 1,000 garments and you have only sold 250 pieces\u2013 then you\u2019re out of business. Start small and let the factories grow with you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
