InkSoft Blog Discusses Starting an Apparel Line
InkSoft, Albuquerque, N.M., recently published a blog by industry veteran Marshall Atkinson that asserts now is a great time to start an apparel line.

Atkinson also walks blog readers through the steps to starting a line, from the idea to business planning, to identifying the target customer, as well as other crucial questions.
