This week the idea for the shirt has stayed the same as previous weeks. I am thinking about changing the design of the shirt in hopes of sparking more interest in my endeavors. The pictures below are of the original designs, please leave any comments of how they can be improved or changed.
I did not have a lot of time to work or brainstorm new ideas this week, maybe next week will be more eventful and produce something of worth for this project.
This week has been uneventful. Little progress has been made on the subject of there simply not being buyers for an overpriced, moderate quality, highschooler designed T-shirt. I do not know what I can do at this point, I am not giving up though, I will continue to brainstorm an will be open to any ideas.
This week, i put a poll out asking for preorders and i got a total of 0 non serious offers, this is a large road block, but i will work on fixing it throughout the week.
This week I finalized the design. The company I will be using is called Custom Ink and that is the cheapest site I could find to produce the shirts in a semi-timely fashion. The shirts will look like the pictures below. prices will be $20. This price is determined by the fact that they are actually $23.72 if I just purchased one approximately. But hopefully they will be fairly popular which will drop the price substantially.
This week was productive in a somewhat negative manner. I did determine the true price range of T-shirts from a the company "Custom Ink" if I decided to go through this site, shirts would be way more expensive than previously thought. They would cost around $18 for 1. This is not something I'm trying to do for that much I want these shirts to be extremely affordable.
I have contacted UTA sports since I could not get in contact with the previous company. UTA sports has not yet gotten back to me but this is expected. I did not come into this project expecting immediate responses from surveys or companies or anyone. Not much has been accomplished this week, maybe next week will be more eventful and a longer post will ensue.
This week on Monday, the results from the survey were finalized. 59 people took the survey and every response was looked at carefully to determine what would be the best fit all in all. This week I plan on contacting the company that will manufacture the shirts and possibly contribute to the design process. If everything goes well I should be able to get a sample of what the finished product will look like in hand maybe by next week or the week after that. After I get a sample in hand I can get an order form created and start taking orders.
This week has been substantially more productive than previous weeks. I have published a survey about design ideas and pricing. The results of this survey will be viewable on Monday, 10/2/17 at around 8:00 PM. At this point I will make a final decision on designs and pricing, the following week or as soon as possible I will start a roster for orders and will collect money, contact information, and sizing. But, I do have some information that is currently set in stone. Sizing will be like normal. If a person wears a size medium in everything, this should be considered an everything and the person should order a medium.
