Description:
I've had an idea for an apparel embroidery service for the past two years. As soon I started to put my business plan into effect I was laid off my job. I'm now in a catch 22 situation where I need to make money (I am job seaching)but it's hard to think about taking on additional debt to start this company. I know I can make money with this business even in the start up period. I also can can sell ice to eskimos so to speak.
I have commitments from three banks to supply logo shirts for their employees. I also want to start talking to large medical firms about providing embroidered scubs for their practices.
My shirt/scrub line will be purchsed from all USA manufatured materials and I have set up an account with company called American Apparel.
I have been in banking for approximately 26 years ad know the ins and outs of setting up merchants services along with websites.
Any advice would be helpful. Thanks for your time.
