<p>Has anyone here successfully started any businesses? If so, what did you do? My friend and I want to do this and we are crafty and clever enough to make this work. We just need an idea to get us started. Thanks!</p>
<p>Cheerio buddy</p>
<p>If you can’t come up with a basic idea for a business you probably aren’t ready to run one…
This isn’t to discourage; what you’re saying just doesn’t make sense.</p>
<p>We have the basic idea for what the business is going to do, we just don’t know how exactly to approach it (get investments, advertise, etc.)</p>
<p>its all about trial and error. I myself have a t shirt company. I’m doing pretty well, but the start up is a biyotch.</p>
<p>Ilovemyego, how did you start it up?</p>
<p>At the moment, our premise is putting our HS’s art on t-shirts and selling it to the students at school and to the public at art events and exhibitions. To get money to do this, we were hoping for grants from art non-profits because we are, through the t-shirts, promoting youth art. We also hope we can get investments from other students and local businesses to start up and, in that sense, run our business a bit like a corporation.</p>
