Think you need a warehouse and six figures in equipment to start a shirt business? Think again.

In this episode, I break down the real cost numbers between industrial screen printing and home-based DTF (direct-to-film) printing — and why beginners are better off starting small, not big.

You'll learn:
✅ The actual cost-per-shirt difference between DTG, screen printing, and DTF
✅ Why big print shops need volume to be profitable — and why you don't
✅ How same-day turnaround is becoming a bigger edge than low price
✅ Where big screen print shops still legitimately win (and where they don't)
✅ The #1 mistake beginners make even after picking the right printing method

If you've been stuck comparing equipment instead of taking action, this episode gives you the numbers to move forward with confidence.
