I just purchased and received mine’s in the mail. I bought one that said “All Women are created equal but Queen’s are born in July” 👏🏽👏🏽 Purchased to gift to a 105 year young women. Pink with silver wording. She’s gonna love it!
Lol, my family kept wondering why I was talking to my screen, saying “yes, she’s absolutely right!” I started off with an embroidery business about 12 yrs. ago. I learned many of lessons you gracefully explained. One of the hardest lessons was how to turn away business. A quality product will always be appreciated and will generate more business. However, a cheap product will be perceived as cheap and not valued. Another important business policy was the importance of prepayments or a significant deposit.
Hi Tracie. I love the t-shirt you're wearing. I've been making t-shirts as a side hustle for over a year and if I may, the shirt you're wearing should be more than $20 because it has multiple colors. During my research I learned that the more you have to pull down the heat press (additional colors) you should charge a little extra. Glad I found your channel. :)
Thank you for this! I'm currently trying to start up my own merchandise business and the figuring out pricing part is so far the hardest for me. This gave me a good understanding of how to do it. Really appreciate it!
I’ve been making t-shirts for years just for family for special occasions l you and one other gentleman are the only one’s that I understand. Thank you! 🙏🏾
Hello and I really appreciate your , how to start a T-shirt business. I'm retired, so I have free time. God freed me up. But I want a side hustle. I do crafts, but I feel you need sometimes other crafts as well. My daughter has ordered my heat press , it should arrive by October 12th, but I need to reach like you said. And become familiar with the equipment and it's uses. I really like what you have demonstrated. Blessings pray 🙏🏿 for me 😂😂
Thank you Tracie for your sharing Just leveling up my Tshirt business and getting my cost and retail list together ❤ You are right Family and Friends are the first to always ask for a Discount (Really) 😅 They didn't seed anything in our business but we are fair like you said to those who will help us grow our business Much success to you. And I love your shirts Yes blame it on Jesus, he gives us the ability to create our own wealth 🎉
Tracie thank you!! This is really good information, You are so correct there is a lot of time that you spend in doing a shirt. Oh, I could go on and on but you are right people don't understand the time and trying to use the best materials. Thank you for sharing this. 😊
Thank you so much for this!! It really REALLY helped me with figuring out where to start at making shirts for a few family businesses that would like me to make shirts/bags for them. Thank youuuuu
Tracie you are wonderful! You've answered questions I've had for a long time about starting a t-shirt business. This is perfect and allows me to get started the right way. Thanks so much.
I just became a subbie and I'm thankful to have found you, I saw this video on Monday 09-16-2019 but for some unknown reason I didn't sub. . .🤪 I've been creating Tees off & on since 1990 but not consistently. I custom design, and my method is the iron-on. However, I'm looking to purchase a Sillhouett Cameo, and a Heat Press within a few weeks because I know that it's time to knuckle down, and kick up some lava!!! I had a lady approach me on Sept. 1 requesting an order. Delivered!!! Then a young man placed two orders. Working on those, my computer blitzed. So finding you is a real GOD SEND. Thanks for putting it out like that. Blessings.
Hi! Awesome!!! If you’d like, you can check the drop down description box below this video for more information and links to other videos I’ve made on the t-shirt business. There are also links to Amazon where I purchased my equipment from.
Thank you for making this video, you made it so simple! most business people are like "do this formula, times it by 4, you need a markup" etc etc and the price ends up being well over $50 T_T Your video is simple & sweet. I will watch the rest of your videos while I make tshirts this week :D
I have become a fan of yours. You created a great video with lots of info. I recently got Cricut Explorer Air and enjoying making a t-shirt for myself. My friends like what I wear and want me to make for them. I quoted them at a very low price. Your guideline for pricing is very correct. Thanks for sharing your tips with us. Gold bless you.
Thank you! I started this jst for fun as a hobby with the kids and it turned into something, and now I'm like where do I start. Thank you again, this was a big help!
Thanks for making all the videos. i live in Dallas TX. As a beginner, starting a T-shirt business, I love watching your videos, at the same time, I need hands-on training.
Thank you so much! If you’d like, you can check the drop down description box below this video for more information and links to other videos I’ve made on the t-shirt business. There are also links to Amazon where I purchased my equipment from.
This is a very well designed video and very informative. Thank you for taking the time to educate others in such a well presented video. God Bless you...
Awesome!!! Feel free to check out the drop down description box below this video for more information and links to other videos I’ve made about t-shirts and purchasing links to Amazon where I purchased my equipment. Blessings! 🤗✨
I googled how to price t shirt designs and you popped right on up. I'm glad you did because this was very helpful. How much should you charge for 2+ colors?
I usually just consider how much vinyl was used and not necessarily the colors unless it’s a complex design where the colors intertwine. Taking that into consideration about 23 to $25
Awesome! As the owner of the business that’s really up to you. I don’t care for when the customer brings a shirt for me to print on- a lot of times they want to help make the price and sometimes the shirt may not be the right material for heat pressing. I’ve done it for people I’m veeery close to on only about 3 occasions. So you can tell people that you don’t do that process if you’d like 👍🏽
Your videos are so helpful, thank you so much. I do have a question. I have only been making shirts for about 3 months and finally came up with a design that is selling very well. My issues is I am getting messages from customers asking or telling me that someone else is asking or taking my design and making their own shirts with it. What would you recommend me say about that? I want to be as polite as possible but it kinda grinds my gears just a little lol. Please keep the videos coming!
Hi Corey! Thank you so much- you could get a copyright or some type of ownership for your t-shirt designs. You’d have to Google that for information, I unfortunately am not sure of the process 👍🏽
Awesome!!! So glad I could help- please feel free to check out the drop down description box below this video for more information and links to Amazon where I purchased my equipment 🤗✨✨

@@traciesplace I've watched all of the videos and I must say again a BIG THANK U to u for the videos and the knowledge. I'm starting from scratch and piece by piece but I'm gonna get this business going. Thank u again. I'm subscribed to your channel
Hi Jordan! Yes, you could do a price break for 10 or more shirts or when 25, 50 or more are ordered. The more shirts, then at your specified discretion- you charge less. Could say at 10 or more they would be a $1.50 cheaper and 25 or more $2.50 cheaper etc... 👍🏽✨
Hi Tracy, I hope you're doing well so far. Do you recommend this kind of heat press to someone who wants to get one? Also, please let me know where I can buy basic and cheap material to start off. Thank you very much for sharing this. I am very interested to know how you market this kind of business as well.
Hi! Oh yes- I surely recommend this Heat Press- If you go to my “How To Heat Press A T-shirt” video, if you look under the video in the drop down description box below it, you will see info on where to buy things. And also watch the 6 videos in this series which includes how to market your t-shirts. I hope this helps and please don’t hesitate to ask if there was something I didn’t cover in the videos 🙌🏽✨
Hello, thank you for the video. How much would you charge for a tshirt with a big fish( silhouette ) and words on the back. 10x10. I will be using vinyl
Thanks for the great information!!! I will be subscribing to your channel immediately. What would you charge for a bulk order like family reunion T-shirts?
Hello, thank you so much, I'm glad I was able to help. The bulk prices will depend on the wholesale price you're able to get for the t-shirts plus the complexity of the design and amount of vinyl you use. Also the kids sizes should be a little cheaper than the adult sizes. Make sure you're making a profit and giving your time, talent and services away!
Tracie...thank you❤ What about 20 shirts...like bulk? Do I discount them and how much?🤔 Thinking $3 off maybe as I have an inquiry in my inbox as I type 😂
Great advice. If people don’t craft they don’t realize how much time and expense it really is
So so true! 👍🏽
Same thing happens when making music.
I just purchased and received mine’s in the mail. I bought one that said “All Women are created equal but Queen’s are born in July” 👏🏽👏🏽 Purchased to gift to a 105 year young women. Pink with silver wording. She’s gonna love it!
Thank you! I hope she likes it 🤗✨💕
She LOVED it!!! 💞💖💕

I sell mines like the one she is wearing for $25.00, n u are right she should sell her for $25.00 because it does have different colors.

Hi Tracie
I have a question. How much should we charge for kids t-shirts? Can you please make a video for this? Love the way you explain
Hi Seema! You could sale them for roughly $15 because they cost just about the same for you to purchase.
I will be explaining this to my mom this is going to help her a lot thank you. question what if a customer decides to buy the shirt ?
Awesome! As the owner of the business that’s really up to you. I don’t care for when the customer brings a shirt for me to print on- a lot of times they want to help make the price and sometimes the shirt may not be the right material for heat pressing.

Bella Canvas online is a great place or in Google search type in “wholesale plain tank tops” and places should pop up👍🏽
What would you do for bulk orders? Do you have a breakdown of when your price mark drops? Thank you Tracie!
Hi Jordan! Yes, you could do a price break for 10 or more shirts or when 25, 50 or more are ordered. The more shirts, then at your specified discretion- you charge less. Could say at 10 or more they would be a $1.50 cheaper and 25 or more $2.50 cheaper etc... 👍🏽✨

About $30
