I have an idea for a t-shirt business. How do I sell them online? -

Basically, I want to set a Web site up where people can preview the t-shirts and then hit BUY and have it made/shipped to them. How do I set up an e-commerce site like this? Who can I hire to do the legwork? Just looking for something basic. I know there s CafePress.com and stuff, but I want to have a stand-alone Web site (and not have to give them cash). Thanks!

The very best advice, go local.Get a personal web-site builder.

I would suggest hiring a firm that specializes in business solutions. They will help you find the most effective T-shirt suppliers, as well as help you set up your E-commerce platform.A Good business solution firm will be able to supply you with design, development, and internet marketing, as well as give you advice on how to get your business up and running.Your idea sounds very feasible, and I m sure you ll be able to find someone interested in helping you.If you d like to discuss your idea more, or have any questions, please e-mail me at DGiardino@webmonkeymedia.com

CafePress $5/month premium shop is honestly the best way to go. Starting a website from scratch, and getting traffic can be a time and money intensive process, let alone the process of ordering and managing inventory...and it can take months or years for your site to get any free traffic at all.If you want a unique domain, you can register one and have it forwarded to your cafepress site. So if you tell someone to go to BobsTShirts.com it ll send them to cafepress.com/bobstshirts .

You can use OScommerce shopping cart. It is free.Check http://neond.comYou can install OScommerce with one click.

How and when will i know how valuble my patented idea is? -

i have invented something that may be the talking point of the restaurant world, however its early days and we have already sold a good deal even before i have started to manufacture it, how do you really know how valuble your idea is, do you just sitback and wait for the offers to come in? or is there another way to find outregardsmike

Your idea is as valuable as someone will pay for it =) If you re looking for an actual number, do an analysis like this:Amt. money it will earn or save a company per unit, times number of units required for most efficient utilization, minus 20-40% (their profits); that s the value. Don t have those numbers? When you get an offer ask for the reasoning behind the offer. And ALWAYS make sure you get royalties if you re licensing it. Talk to a patent attorney, they ll be able to help you out and won t steer you wrong (cuz hey, if you don t get paid neither do they =)Good luck!

i want some help . i am doing a rubberfactory.here we produce rubber bands .and there is a problem with our dipper .so we cant arrange for a new dipper .and we have to find way to produce our product and is there is any thing we can do like any machines for dipping.dipping is the process like -just taking a mould and put it in a latex so it will be hard for girls and is there is any machines for that plz tell me immediately

I am sure the factory management will be happy to help you out, it is their responsibility.

Assuming you are serious (and your spelling and grammar says no) just get a new dipper. Why can t you just arrange another?

Some people prefer doggy style ,but why wouldn t it take you all day to swim across the pool .
