    I am ready to start my t-shirt business have a lot of ideas but one thing that’s holding me back is someone stealing my ideas. How can I protect my ideas from people who might have the money to make it bigger than me?

    Small piece of advice that may help you all. E-Myth by Michael Gerber… If you can not walk away from your business and come back to see it more profitable, you do not have a “real business” you are providing a service. i.e Ray Croc Owner of Mcdonalds created a system so he doesn’t have to sell hamburgers on his own .. The owner of Starbucks did the same thing. However if you plan on making millions by printing shirts your self then you have a lot of work and arthritis in the years ahead.

    Google the Cashflow Quadrant and you will see exactly what I mean.

    I hope this helps

    Eric.

    I no longer offer that service… There wasn’t enough demand for that service. Sorry!

  • Jessegaines72

    Cartess you stated in one of your videos about different companies putting designs on the transfer paper, right? How do I contact these companies? How much do each transfer paper cost with my design on it? And is there any other way to print some good quality t-shirts are do I have to get a single transfer paper for every t-shirt I print?

    Thanks.

    I’ve ordered from them a few times with no problems back in the day. THey resell other manufacturer’s transfer designs.

    Cartess Hi

    I have began printing heat transfer. With the same heat settings and pressure I have ran into a problem. On one shirt part of the transfer was left on the paper. How did this happen? Where did I go wrong.
    Another Q I have is; Can you print your own designs from a Cannon Printer? What will be the outcome?

    Thanks,
    Ms Nancy

  • http://www.tshirtriches.com Cartess Ross

    Make sure you let the machine heat up long enough. I generally leave my machine on for 30 minutes before I start using it. Make sure there is enough pressure on the machine as well.

    I imagine you can print designs from your Canon Printer. I don’t think your results will be any good though.
