Things I use for my brand
I have multiple resources I use to make sure my brand is in the best position to succeed. The main resources I use are
shopify, alibaba, procreate, and whatsapp.
Here's a description of each app:
1. Alibaba.com
Alibaba.com is the main thing I use to get in touch with manufacturers. You can look up any type of clothing manufacturer
and they'll have it. Majority of the manufacturers are based in China. As the app is based in China. They provide for customers globally.
2.Shopify.com
Shopify is how you are going to make your website. Right now, you could get shopify basic for 1 dollar a month for 3 months.
After that, it will cost around 25-29 dollars a month. Once you get your brand up and running, the 25 dollars will seem like nothing.
Shopify makes it easy to create a website. They have templates already made. All you need to do is change the pictures and fonts to your liking.
You can also go deep into shopify and change the code. Doing that, you will create a completely different website. One that wouldn't even look
like it should be on shopify.
3.Procreate
Procreate is an app on IOS only. I use procreate to make my designs right from my Ipad. Unfortunately, it's only available on Ipad.
Procreate makes creating designs so much easier and stress-free. As you continue to use the app, you will only see yourself continue to get
better and better making your designs. Anything you can imagine, you can put it on procreate.
4.Whatsapp
Whatsapp is a free cross-platform messaging service. It lets users of iPhone and Android smartphones and Mac and Windows PC
call and exchange text,photo, audio, and video messages with others across the globe for free, regardless of the recipient's device.
I use Whatsapp to talk to other manufacturers. Manufacturers in Pakistan use this app mostly. I have two manufacturers. I talk to one on
Whatsapp and another on Alibaba.
