What We Do
The Driver Way (TDW)
The TDW is a 5-step approach to building a business after deciding your product. We have teamed with Amir Driver, founder of Made In Apparel, LLC, to help entrepreneurs lead with the best steps forward. Here's an explanation of the five business steps:
Step 1:
Trademark
Your brand
needs a distinguishable
name and logo
to set you apart.
Step 2:
License
Determine the specific licenses and permits required for your type of business and location.
Step 3:
Online Store
Create a plan for your online store, including the platform you will use
(e.g., Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy)
Step 4:
Sample Photos
Prepare high-quality images of your products or items. These images should showcase your products from various angles and highlight their key features.
Step 5:
Marketing Campaign
Develop a marketing strategy tailored to your budget. Consider various marketing channels such as social media, email marketing, content marketing, and paid advertising.
