Perfect for entrepreneurial, internship or capstone courses and for business, industry, and extension short courses!
Do you have students with design talent and training but no business skills? Or others with business skills, but no idea where to begin when planning a line of clothing? Fashion for Profit was developed by Frances Harder to assist talented individuals in achieving their dreams by providing a solid business base and expertise on the various aspects of owning a small apparel company. The fundamental material for Fashion for Profit evolved over the many years Frances was involved with the fashion industry, both in the U.S. and in Europe, where she twice owned and operated her own business, and taught.
Fashion for Profit covers all the important aspects of going into business—licenses, business plans, bookkeeping, financing, product development, costing, fabrication, contracting, and the everyday logistics of running a small apparel manufacturing company, plus the marketing and sales, including mail order, e-commerce and e-tailing. There have been many textbooks written about the fashion industry, but Fashion for Profit is a unique book, which fills an educational and information gap unmet until now. The book provides critical help to a start-up apparel manufacturer, and resource information needed to operate a small business successfully.
