You're dumb as fukk because you make no fukking sense clown. I told him to price his shyt high to make nikkas covet it. You disagreed. I asked you to name 1 clothing brand that nikkas rock that's cheap and you still haven't done it.
You still don't get it stupid thoughts. Your dumb ass question has jack fukking shyt to do with his gear you fukking clown. His shyt ain't fukking iceberg level. Hell it ain't even macys polo level fukking dummy so unless you just being a coddling dikkrider fukk would I address that stupid ass point of yours? Keep that stupid shyt to your family and friends not folks with actual sense.

FUBU and every other urban clothing brand started with high price points you cumdrinker. He won't sell shyt to nikkas by making it affordable. You don't know shyt about marketing. GTFO my thread with that negative bullshyt.

The only cumdrinkers are them bytches in your family clown. You still don't get it failurethoughts. What negative bullshyt fakkit? I'm just being real you being a groupie bytch. Dude needs the real not some fukking sunshine pumping dikkrider like you doing. That fukking design isn't worth no fukking high price point currently period. Who the fukk buys shyt with no cache for high prices dikkhead? That shyt ain't moving at a high price point right now period. Some cats on here will buy it but making any real money please. All these other groups you mentioned had fukking money behind them stupidthoughts on top of also being plugged by rapper and other influential people. Of course they can sell for a higher price point. Which of those does dude have currently? Stop being a sunshine pumper bytch and keep it realistic.

Was thinking about starting up a site. Problem? There are plans rumbling around for something very similar but they've been sitting on their ass about it. It's a really niche wrestling site but it has the potential to make me some cash. Should I just power move them? I think I'd roll out more features anyway :yeshrug:

I shouldn't have slept on this thread :wow:

Well to be honest you should probably get a job/money first. I don't think you want to have this as your only way of making bread when businesses aren't usually profitable in the beginning.

This is the 2nd time this week i've seen @philmonroe hop in a peaceful thread and create instant beef. :dead:However, I agree 100% with this...

It won't get famous until the book gets famous period. I'd love to be wrong but its soooo much stuff that looks like that out now it'll be really hard. Just work on getting that book out there more and then work on this other stuff. Right now all this other stuff that isn't about the actual book and marketing is straight bullshyt right now. The book takes off the other stuff will come but the book is the big thing now. I wish I remembered what podcast it was but some cat that makes children's books was talking about something similar. He built up his audience then made plush toys based on the characters and now since he has a fan base now he could make money selling the stuffed animals. Now he said he's doing good enough that he quit his job and hopefully that's where you eventually get to but remember the book is first period fam.

@ORDER_66 put all your effort and money into generating a loyal fanbase for your book before you start trying to eat off merchandising. The opportunity to make money off clothing items, coffee mugs, baseball hats... will come after you establish a strong brand with your book. If you start trying to sell merchandise at this stage in the game, you're going to have to spend money/time on manufacturing AND trying to convince people to buy hats, shirts, and mugs with a picture of a character they know nothing about.

Now if your book is a hit, and you have a decent fanbase, you no longer have to explain the merchandise. People will look at your items like "Thats Aaron Jackson!":krs: And once they purchase, they become a walking advertisement free of cost.

IMO, all your money/time should be dedicated to making your book a hit before you start branching off into anything else.

Why y'all two muthafukkas beefin' for?!!? :dahell: I get what both of y'all is saying... Here's the thing I'll find a good price point with the clothing, I can sell them for $20 a pop. I'm not worried for trying to sell it for iceberg level. I can always adjust it later. I understand in this economy people dont have disposable money to waste it on a shirt that costs much as a pair of jordans especially no name ones'.

I believe in my product so much I am taking a chance on everything...

And I figure if I can purchase the shirts for cheap like $5 and sell them for $20 I'll make a $15 profit a pop... That's a decent profit to begin with...

Y'all two need to just calm down lets all get this paper fukk the differences in ideology and methods. if it works, it works.

@Blackthoughts @philmonroe
:birdman: let's get it...

PS: I'm researching how to take from my 401K to start my business off regardless even though I will incur a tax penalty of some sort. That's how much I believe in myself. fukk the limitations, life is too short to be arguing over bullshyt.

There's always one clown that brings bullshyt and bulldozers when they see nikkas trying to build. So far there's been two of them in this thread trying to troll me. Both of them sissies are on my ignore list.
