Project Title: $25 Brainstorm & Survey: Passive Income Layouts (T-Shirt Design & Shopify)
Project Description:
The Greeting Hello everyone, I have an idea of getting some ideas rolling and in order. Skills I need are discussion and planning with a small reward of $25.
The Plan I wish to clear the air or lay the groundwork by surveying ideas for making money globally through collaborative ideas (which I have no experience in) like that of t-shirt design or running a shared Shopify platform where I promote ideas or sell scattered brands in one place like a personal website with my custom pricing, legal protections and partnerships with those brands.
In my current mindset of posting this project, I have decided that success can stem from flexibility, intentions, collaboration, and the ultimate cause: profit. I am aiming for finding success through being subtle and observant in the first stage, as I believe I can better my strength and resilience in my reality by establishing a passive income stream like a business.
The History & Context I have posted two other projects on this platform. The first one was where I hired someone to help me find a job, and luckily, doors flew open—I was able to secure work as a public service sub-custodian for my city's buildings. Because I work when I can at my convenience, I recently then tried to set up an entire business from scratch. Then that’s where my second project which was a learning experience that didn’t get a Bussiness established initially as planned. As l had learned that a full Business Consultant can cost around $2,000, and my previous attempt to start planning at a lower budget fell apart due to my lack of experience with the business world. I needed a few months to step back and figure out how to better use this platform.
I hope this context helps explain my situation. Passive income is deeply important to me because it will eventually help fund personal initiatives to manage an autoimmune condition, with the long-term goal of funding better health systems and in return helping heal myself and others far in the future.
What I Need From You (To Milestone the $25): In the meantime, I wish to take baby steps with small funds to speak with or assess professionals. NOTE that I plan to survey once I research the suggestions and plan to pay the freelancer which I believe can get me somewhere profitable, at my pace, and that’s affordable in order to be considered for this project, please reply with a message or a small list answering:
1. What are 2 or 3 specific apps, platforms, or companies (besides standard printing) that can help a beginner set up passive assets or joint Shopify-like structures?
2. Based on your experience, what is the smallest, lowest-risk "baby step" I can take this week to brainstorm or assess foreign apparel markets without a massive upfront budget?
I am so new to everything, thank you for your time and guidance!
