Last year, my husband's band spent some money to get some custom printed t shirts. The problems began when they left them in a town far away, and did not get them back for six months. They were selling them to their fans to help fund their next recording project, but it's kind of hard to sell merchandise that is left in a bin in the back of a club. While you don't want to leave something somewhere, you can learn from their example if you really want to make some money for whatever reason you have.
If you have a band, you can do the same thing that my husband's band has done. You can usually find a good price for your custom printed t shirts and then sell them for as little as ten dollars. For a great looking t shirt, this is a really good bargain, and those that like your band are going to buy them. Not only are you making some money off of your custom printed t shirts, you are also getting some really great advertising for free. When they wear the shirts, others will see the name of your band, and may even ask about you.
You don't have to have a band to do custom printed t shirts to sell. You can sell your own designs, but do make sure your designs are yours. You cannot reprint something someone else has made and then sell it for your own profit. Your designs have to be ones that you have made on your own. You can find many great places to sell your own custom printed t shirts, and you may find that you love this as a business to make money on the side. This can lead to other things, and you may find your designs are so popular you can't keep up with the demand.
You don't have to have profit in mind to have your own custom printed t shirts to have a reason to have them made. Some like to have these as a gift when they have a large party like a family or class reunion. You can also have them made up as a give away for promotional purposes, or you could sell them for charity. Whatever the case, find a good printer for your custom printed t shirts, and order a large number for the best price per shirt. Complete your design and triple check for accuracy before you send them off, and then enjoy them once they are done.
