So I am doing my best to improve my life and move forward, I can't find the right job for me that I can fit around my kids and other commitments so I've decided to create my own. As such I've taken advantage of the NEA scheme at my local Job Centre to get started.

My original idea was solely to take original tattoo designs by actual tattoo artists and put them on high quality screen printed t-shirts, above and beyond what you'd normally find. The idea was for this to be a purely online venture to reduce operating costs etc as much as possible, as such I came up with the name "Teevas-ink". A name I felt worked.

Since talking with as many people as possible who are into t-shirts in general my idea has evolved into also incorporating gamer t-shirts etc depending on merchandise rights and am not sure if the name really fits anymore.

So knowing what a weird and wonderfully creative place GD can be I've decided to seek your help in coming up with ideas for a business name.
 
What's going to make yours different to the hundreds of other people who set up on sites like big cartel and just pump out tshirts and other clothing?

This is an excellent question, well for a start quality as I've already sourced excellent quality, 100% ring spun and pre shrunk t-shirts at very reasonable pricing so much better than the usual stuff you find online. And then there's the originality of the designs, I'm already awaiting several designs from two very talented tattoo artists that are fairly well known locally and will be entering into a legal agreement for sole use of their designs etc. I've already emailed several indie game developers one of which has expressed interest so I would also have to say legality.

None of my t-shirts will be unlicensed blag.

I will be happy to help out editing your copy or marketing collateral, if you don't already have that covered. Just drop me a line when you come to fleshing out your website.

Give the tat artists some of the shirts. They like to show off the artwork that they have done and people waiting in a tat shop usually skim through the tat book, look on the wall at the designs and just try to distract themselves to kill time, seeing the shirt would likely have a better impact while they are in that environment over say a facebook post or a website ad. Easy way to get free advertisement that targets people interested in the artist. The fact they are tat designs adds its own gimmick which will bode well with the tat addicts that go there (some people just turn up to chill with the artists).

Will be hard to get it off the ground but its relatively easy to keep on top of.

Good luck to ya bud.
