Support Your Startup with CafePress
CafePress has been a life-saver for getting my other ventures off the ground. I didn't mind making an initial cash infusion to get the apartment sites off the ground, but that's all I would have done. Taking a big drop in pay to get my own thing going was bad enough, but had I needed to make regular investments from my own funds to keep things going would have meant the end a while ago. Thanks to having multiple CafePress shops I've haven't had to use any personal funds whatsoever to keep things afloat. If you're trying to get your own venture started, and could use an extra revenue stream to get things going I recommend opening your own shop. Focus on a niche that you know and that's under-represented. You just need to be able to come up with a few designs and then do some pay-per-click advertising. CafePress does the rest. Now that my apartment sites are starting to bring in their own revenue, the extra CafePress revenue just means I can get things moving even faster. If you do decide to sign up with them, use this link so I can get a referral credit (every dollar counts!).
