i am having a massive headache.
i want to earn money as early as possible. so i have this idea on mind to start a clothing business with my cousin. and it's causing me a massive headache just in the first day. fyi, i have mention that i will take care of all the design parts and she can handle the production and marketing thingys. first of all, she has learned basics on sewing and patterning, and she definitely love clothes. but wait, she learned from a local fashion school called Arva and it's like only for a month at most. i don't mean to underestimate her or anything, but i can say that i have at least tiny bit more experience on the design field than her. am i too cocky to say that? i don't mean it.
with her love on fashion, she keeps suggesting ideas and desiring to create a brand based on her style, and here is when the line becomes blur. if it's a joint company, isn't it that the task division should be very clear and we won't interrupting each other on our own fields? so i will be the designer who handles all the designs, the execution, the finishing, and the materials. she will do all her marketing thingys such as the promotions, websites, shipment, productions, etc. so if, she wants me to design something that she desired 'based-on-her-style' then isn't it that i work for her? am i right?
so, the line is super blur now. super super blur. and it's causing me a massive headache.
don't get me wrong, it doesn't mean that i want everything my way and i am too selfish so i can't do a joint company. i don't mind either options, i just want everything to be clear. if the final decision is that i work for her then i'll treat her as my client, so i have no hard feelings if she criticize my design. but if she wants me to take care of the design field, then please let me do it by myself.
thanks. for listening to me. :D
we gotta do lots of brainstorming, aren't we?
