Hello Steemple !
I am a 32 year old MILF of a multilingual toddler, self-employed designer/printer, part-time GIS grad student, novice bodybuilder, and nature lover. '
Half-Haitian. Half-Jewish. 100% American, who adores "foreign" food & culture.
Variety is the spice of life, so I shall curate & post about all of the above. Please follow me if our interests & ACTIONS overlap!
In my view, EVERYTHING is connected. My dream is uniting my many passions into a powerful movement, capable not of "saving the trees", but empowering people to make good choices. As George Carlin said, the Earth can "shake us off like a bad case of fleas".
STEPS:
Create a company that is based on sexiness, but operates sustainably. Since I already manufacture #fashion , and workout in different gyms every day (bodybuilding #fitness gains require CHANGE and VARIETY), I chose to focus on workout clothes.
Not only is this apparel printed, cut & sewn in Atlanta, but it's made from 99% Southern-USA made fabric, ink, paper, etc...
This must be done for a higher purpose than maximizing profit, since it's almost impossible to achieve economy of scale:
A. It costs $7 retail for a decent quality printed leggings from Asia
I pay $7 for a seamstress in Atlanta to sew a single pair of leggings.
B. Asian manufacturers paid less than $1.00/yard for their fabric
I pay $10-30/yard for 100% recycled fabric milled in the South USA.Leverage all these costs into a new way of BUYING the products:
I plan a healthy discount for cryptocurrency payers (accepting even the newest forms of payment), as well as DIRECT PAYERS: paypal family & friends, venmo, free bank draft, etc...Leverage all this good karma into a new way of MARKETING the products:
My choice of designs, models, photoshoot locations, social media posts, and everything else, are all about promoting local artists, gyms, trainers, and more subtly... The native ecosystem of the region! Here is a sneak preview:
Model Santia is a local celebrity trainer who stars on Atlanta Steam ladies football team.
Model Erin is a gifted Movement Artist who stars in the local Burlesque scene.When the brand is established (ie. grossing $10,000/month, which I have done before), I will consider it a successful "proof of concept" and repeat steps 1 thru 2 in a different region of the Country and World. Some places do not have ANY sustainable fabric mills or local industrial sewing professionals. In that case I will simply locate the closest ones.
When I am generating about $100k per month, I will add a division for environmental Research & Development. This is where it gets good... Instead of tree planting being primarily a SLOW, NON-PROFIT, ISOLATED activity, it must become fun & profitable.
In conclusion, I am a bit selfish about Steemit, since I see cryptocurrency primarily as a way to differentiate and promote a brand. I look forward to the community's encouragement AND criticism!
