HUMBLE BEGINNINGS 📸
Attached is a photo of where Phreaze Factory Custom Prints & PFC Musicwear officially started (after the garage at home) many years ago. The Purple Lab - nothing but a carry-on suitcase 🧳 full of audio equipment I used to wheel around to youth & community centres in Australia & New Zealand for workshops.
A little hall in Tauranga, Aotearoa / New Zealand, at a local monthly market.
No big budget 💰 to kick it off — just a cheap Chinese vinyl cutter, a few metres of vinyl we’d slowly collected, and a heat press we lugged down each month so we could create custom clothing on the spot for people (something that wasn’t being done in Tauranga at the time).
More on this later… but I just wanted to share this with you…..
You don’t have to be “flash” or “high-end” from the beginning, or “rich” to start a business. Anyone can do this if you’re willing to put the work in!
📸 If you’re just starting your music industry and/or merch journey, I encourage you to post a photo here that represents your beginning (even if it’s an empty wallet!), then come back every now and then to celebrate how far you’ve come.📸
Please watch 👁️ the extended intro video attached as well - it’ll hopefully give you more of an idea of who we are, what we’re about and what we hope for you in this community! 💜
