Hi there,

I have just started a clothing company selling mainly t-shirts. As a new company, i want to sell my clothes in snowboarding retailers. Could anyone give me advice on a resonable selling cost and terms of sale?

Any advice would be really appreciated.

Ed

Hi Ed,

Only you can decide the cost - how much does it cost you, in terms of materials and your time, to produce each t-shirt? How valuable is your time? This is often under-valued by many people when they're starting out and they end up under-selling themselves.

I suggest taking a look at the Sales and Marketing topic in the Be Your Own Boss section of this website:

You may also find this article on Pricing Strategies of use:
