So you want to start a clothing or accessories line.
That’s great! But why?
There are a lot of reasons to start a fashion business. For instance…
- You’re tired of your job.
- You have a lot of creativity and you want to use it.
- You have a fantastic idea that you know everyone will love.
- You have a need for a product that’s not available and you think others will want it too.
Some of these reasons to launch a business are good and some are, well… not so good.
In today’s episode, we’ll cover this + the 6 questions you should ask yourself BEFORE you start a fashion business.
I wish someone would have made me listen to this BEFORE I started. 🙂

Before you start a fashion business, ask yourself these 6 questions:
- What do you want to start a business? Is it because you hate your job?
- Are you willing to be VERY uncomfortable?
- Do your family and friends support you?
- Do you realize that a successful business is NOT about how great your ideas are?
- If this failed, would you regret it?
- Are you ready to commit to imperfect action?

Hi Jane, I’m very excited for this 4 day workshop and the Live session on Thursday. However I’m based in Singapore and work a full time job and a mum. As much as I’d like to think I can be up at 1am for this workshop, I’m not sure if I’d be up all morning. Is there any possibility that you will be recording this session please?
Thanks for your generosity in doing workshops like this for people like me who are so eager to start a business but lost on how?.
Thanks very much

Hello! You don’t have to show up live for the Fashion Startup Challenge. Everything will be recorded and available to you in the private Challenge FB Group. We’ll be leaving the Group up for ONE WEEK after the Challenge ends so be sure to get what you need before that, OK? Thanks,
Jane
