Getting A Wholesale License To Start A Clothing Line - Step By Step Tutorial

- If you’re starting a clothing line you’ll need a wholesale license to buy blanks for your designs. In this step by step tutorial I walk you through the process of getting a wholesale license to start your clothing brand. For customization tips visit Bella Canvas: bit.ly/2OCKRHE
Buying wholesale blanks for your apparel line can be a little complicated if you don’t have the right business paperwork and registration in place. In this tutorial I share how you can register your business name, and get your wholesale license, commonly referred to as a Resale Certificate, so you can purchase from major brands such as Bella + Canvas and many more.
It all starts with registering your business at the state level, and then filing your Doing Business As Name (fictitious firm name) from there you register with the department of taxation (commonly referred to as the Board of Equalization) and you are then able to submit a resale certificate to many wholesale manufacturers or distributors.
This video breaks down all the details, so no need to worry, I have also made some marks in the video here for you to follow along and take notes.

Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my partner got amazing results with it.

Can I get an EIN # and start buying wholesale items then LATER on when my business is up and running I can go register my business with the state? Or do I HAVE to register with the state first. Also will I have to pay taxes if I only have an EIN #?
Do you get the wholesale number from Silverlume?

Question: when getting your DBA did you go in as a sole proprietor or limited liability company since you are using wholesalers?
same question?
Im a sole proprietorship, with DBA, and the sellers permit, worked fine for me
but if its a LLC am i able to sale online nation wide??
im confused about this stuff. do i need a license if i use print to sale and have a website?
is all this done after obtaining EIN?
I wonder, can this apply to brand owners that specialize in cut & sew garments?
You can always expand the line into accessories or other items you don’t design to compliment your line. Also buying fabrics and supplies, large suppliers will ask for it.
How about for some one from Africa how do I do that ? I need to start my own warehouse.
Hey buddy, i know this video is 2yrs old but i have a question. I didnt quite understand what you meant when you said register it at a state level and then get a dba business license. I thought dba was a business license?
anybody know what pro club wholesale prices for t shirts are ?
How do i find a wholesale place in ct ?
So do you still get taxed on goods if you own a reseller certificate?

Hi
I’m trying to start an online boutique. And I’ve been watching ur videos about how to start a business? And here are some of the things that I already got started ....I got my domain name, my EIN, apply for business licenses and registered with the state...just waiting for my documents...so now I need to apply for seller permit. Can I apply for seller permit without all my documents? Or do I have to wait for the documents first before I can apply? And what else do I need? I’m still confused a little on some parts lol sorry..
Sabrina 707 you don’t need your paperwork, as long as you have your ein number for your business.
You can also go into your local tax consultant and they most of the time can file for you for a fee

Where can we find these clothing distribution
John Santos what would you prefer Heat TransferFx or DTG Omniprint
There are pros and cons to both options! if you are looking to create one-offs to test market a design but don't have the money to DTG and just one to create a sample you can heat transfer. But if you want the screen print look without having to make a full run of shirts DTG is a great option as well to achieve that full-color print.
John Santos yes I’m looking more into the fulfillment side of it and printing shirts for other people as a side Business rather then my own brand, but I want to make sure I have the best quality machine for my budget rather then investing it in the omniprint and quality not there, I see the ads omniprint puts out and there designs look faded and not so much contrast

how to renew reseller permit washington
Super videos! Pero estarían aun mejor subtitulados ;)
All of this was thorough and made sense up until the point where he said that in order for a wholesale manufacturer to approve you, you have to have your site up and running and be promoting it on social media. But why would I do this if I don't have the product first? A bit confusing or I'm misinterpreting somehow...
Exactly! LMFAO just like jobs... who want you to have 18 years of experience but won't fucking hire....
Doesn't make any sense, money talks, period.
This is the samething that makes me hesitant
It’s call taking a risk and doing it the cheapest route so you don’t waste all of your money. No one said going into the business field would be easy.
Yeah man, you have to have a business plan an execution through a website, youre ideas displayed for sale, not the physical idea, but a digital idea even, so they then can create your physical idea.. make sense?
I’m in Georgia and I think either the system has changed, or we don’t need reseller’s permits here.
Seems like the only thing the government really is concerned with is a State tax ID and a sales and use account number so they can track your sales.
Sales Tax ID is the number you'd put on a resell permit. You essentially just download a template for your state (google resell permit Georgia) from there you put your number and now you can buy wholesale from wholesalers. 🙌🏽
John Santos
You’re a beast. Looking forward to meeting you in the future?
Whats the NAICS code?
Amigo te escribo desde Colombia yo estoy interesado en vender en los estados unidos por medio de amazon y me gustaria conseguir proveedores de productos pero como tu sabes necesito un reseller licencie sabes de casualidad como podemos los que vivimos fuera de los estados unidos

I got a retail/ resale license and was still denied from some large wholesalers
It happens. especially with brands that screen thoroughly
