He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And so, uh, uh,

He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And then we sold 2000 quilts in, in a week.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And so that put a hundred thousand dollars in our bank account.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And that really helped us, um,

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

get started.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

Yeah, exactly.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And so we, uh, we did not do the best job at it.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

We, we really, we were making about, uh, five to 10 quilts a week.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And then all of a sudden, you know, I had 300 show up at our doorstep basically two days later.

And so we ended up renting a U-Haul van, finding a manufacturer in Fall River, the one that we still work with, uh,

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

Um, and we dropped off about 300 packages and we gave them some mediocre, uh, to not very good instructions on how to make them.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And we came and picked them up three weeks later and just prayed to God that they were right.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

Yeah, exactly.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

And, you know, and some of them were not done okay.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And the problem with our business is that it's a pretty, pretty high stakes business.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

I mean, we're dealing with people's t-shirt memories.

And so you can't just if you mess something up, you can't just ship out another one.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And so, you know, we got some really upset customers, but we learned how crucial this is.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
He Made $750k in November, 2015 From Tee Shirt Quilts in Episode 189 with Nathan Rothstein

And we really put a lot more time into the supply chain.

And since then, we've, you know, we've kept customers happy.
