G's Motorsports Apparel Business (ACLR8) w/MM discounts - G.Irish - 09-04-2010
I'd been kicking around the idea for years but this year I decided to put my money where my mouth was and start a motorsports lifestyle apparel business. I've pretty much been spending the majority of free time the last few months getting some designs together and setting up all the business side of things and now I've got the first 5 designs done. Here's the first 3 that were printed, you guys saw number 4, and the last one is number 5.

All of the shirts have the back accent mark and tachometer size tag

I've still got a ton of work to do (like finishing up the product photos), but I've got 3 out of the 5 designs printed and the web store (<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.aclr8.com">www.aclr8.com</a><!-- w -->) set up with shipping and credit card processing. I set up the store by just making a few small tweaks to a built in template but I'm not totally happy with the site design yet so that'll be the next thing I change, along with getting some stickers printed up. After that, next step will probably be at least one design with some Universal Gold and hats and hoodies.
I can generate some discount codes so PM me here if you want to buy anything. In the next couple of weeks I'm going to try to set up some sort of referral system with the discount codes so for every x number or people who use your discount code you'll get some sort of bonus. Or maybe a group bonus to the whole club as a fundraiser.

Nice man, looks good so far! I'll have to pick up a T-Shirt, but I'll wait until you put up a design that isn't skully....I'm not big on skulls haha. I LOVE how the tag shows the size as a tach though!

+1, I like that one - I don't know how it works with copyrights and all that, but I'd love a gulf GT40 shirt/more car images/names etc, race poster-style shirts, etc.

So I had to take the site down for a bit while I switched storefronts (the old one didn't have dedicated SSL). It's back up and now I've got a discount program together for MM members. Discount #1 is a one-time personal use code, the second will also help MM raise money.
Discount #1
*All members would get a 25% discount for one item. I'll do this discount any time I do a new release. So for instance, when I do my fall/winter set (probably before the end of November) I'll offer it again, then again in Spring. PM me to get your discount code.
Discount #2 - Club Discount
*10% referral discount. Members can give their code to friends/family (or use it themselves) to use for 10% the entire order. For each order made with that discount code,$2.50 will be donated to MM. If MM gets to 100 items sold I'll add a $150 bonus. At 200 items there would be a $300 bonus. That discount code is: MM4PR2001

For those of you that are going to be at VIR this weekend I'm closing out the JPS Hoodie design. MM price is at cost if you want one and I'll bring it to VIR:
