Instructions
Decide who is going to design the dog clothes. You may have a good sense of fashion, but if you're not artistic or creative it may be best to have someone else design them and you just sell them. Having someone else design them cuts into your profit, but if you're not offering designs people like they're not going to buy.
Devise a plan on how to market your dog clothes. If you decide to open a store, you need to consider the location and the cost of renting a building. If you sell them from the Internet, you need to design a website. Remember, the more professional it looks, the more likely people are to buy. So unless you consider yourself an expert in this area, spend the money to have this professionally done.
Offer a variety of choices. Dog lovers come in many shapes and sizes and so do their interests in dog clothes. You can provide everything from football jerseys, motorcycle jackets to pink fur coats.
Provide a measuring scale. The scale should show people how to measure their dog around the neck, chest, waist and get the dog's body and leg length. This way they can order the correct size of dog clothes.
Go to as many places as possible where there are dog lovers, such as parks, dog shows and veterinarian clinics. Put up flyers, pass out business cards and spread the word that you have the most adorable clothes that their dog needs to have. And most importantly, be excited about your dog clothes and the dog lovers are going to want their dog wearing your designs.
