How do you go about starting your own small business?

How would one go about starting a small clothing business if they have no background in clothing design?

  • I have an idea for a women's bra line and I'd like to start delving into making this a reality instead of just a general notion. I know the niche I'd like to fill, and I would like to just do this as a small business from home, selling the pieces via the internet. The thing is, I'm only 19 and have no background in design or any idea where to start in producing quality bras, nor which manufacturing companies to look into. I'd like to find a way to manufacture a few designs inexpensively, rather than hand-sewing or anything like that. Basically, does anyone know of any sites that might be helpful research areas for my business idea? I'm doing research on my own, but it's always good to check with others who might know better where I should be looking. Thanks!

You either need to learn about the design and manufacturing and marketing of clothing, or you need to partner with someone who knows all this. A design school will have classes. If you think you can just hire a company to manufacture the bras for you, be prepared to sell your house to pay their bill.
