ONLINE CLOTHING STORE HELP? - rene - 10-01-2012 07:18 PM
Hello, I'm 16 and i want to start my own online clothes store selling clothes that i have designed and made myself. I have around £200 to start of with.
I'm not sure how to describe the type of clothes in my store but they are similar to these stores:
http://store.iheartdropdead.com/
http://www.nikkilipstick.com/
http://www.dollskill.com/
http://babycakesclothing.tumblr.com/
and brands like: Hell bunny, living dead souls etc
I'm just going to start with t-shirts and then as my store grows i will add different type of clothes.
I have started drawing up designs for my t-shirts but they aren't complete yet so I don't really want to show you all the designs yet.
I'm trying to learn HTML and CSS coding and how to use photoshop so that i can create a website myself as i don't have enough money to pay someone to do it. I am also going to advertise my product using free social network websites such as facebook, tumblr, twitter, youtube etc.
The questions i want to ask you all are:
I can not think of a name for my store so help with that would be much appreciated?
and if there is anything that i have forgotten that i need to do before i start my store?
and last but not least!
How exactly do i start this of? what is there first step i need to do in starting my business?
Thanks to whoever takes the time to help me

I would consider Etsy to sell your things at first. It's a site where people sell things that they have made such as jewelry, clothing, and other accessories. It may be a start so you can see if people are actually interested in your products. The instructions are simple and on the website! Good luck!
