I made my mind about player packages but slight delay on productions due to holiday. As soon as final sample is ready, might need several people to test for fitting (size). All those information will be at facebook so stay tuned ^_^

No offense. I certainly wish you the best of luck. But taking on Nike, Adidas, Wilson even Lotto in their space is a form of financial suicide.

I might need you in the future, when I don't have new ideas anymore ^_^

Actually, I was thinking same thing and told same thing to people who try to start new tennis apparel lines. as I told before, my company is more like a small store so I might not have a big financial burden. nowadays Big companies raise the price every year and I thought there will be markets for decent quality and affordable priced items.

I tried to release my shirts and shorts around AO period but it will be delayed but I will have a small news though.

Athletic DNA did it and they're certainly a big success now.

Looks nice. Now, I'm all for small business and entrepreneurship, but aside from your hats, your prices are not very low. Sure, you can buy new releases from the big names at full retail and pay more, but you can also walk into discount retailers like Kohls or Ross and buy Nike, Addidas, and Fila for under $20 every day. Just the other day I bought my son a Nike tennis shirt for $15. If you want to get a foothold, you have to either be really unique or really cheap. Heck, you can buy Champion tennis shirts at Target for $10. Not the best quality, but for a junior who will outgrow it in 6 months it'll do.

I would also seriously work on improving your website.

I took advantage of the sponsorship program, and I must say, I love this clothing! The wristbands are awesome Also, I love the custom logo option. When do you guys get more colours???

I am aware of the issue. I have a plan to upgrade but Since it's very simple to operate, I will keep it as it is for a while.

it will not be very soon but I have some ideas of new color.

Saw some of your designs. Love Them! I was thinking of taking a page out of Nike and Wilsons book and do two different clothing lines for Arrow Up. Keep the Polo range you have and make a crew range. The polos can be simple and classy (like the RF line) and the crew line can have more patterns and vibrant colours (like the Rafa line)Just a thought to make the brand even better.

I would consider personally visiting tournaments and watching some matches. Other than being able to watch their technique and potential, consider their character, sportmanlike behaviour. attitude counts. People do not want to copy the style of a winner with a bad attitude. Make sure they are representing your brand to your satisfaction. Otherwise it's your money down the drain.
