Hey sis welcome back to my channel. If you want to know the truth about starting a Christian t shirt business that nobody tells you stay tuned to the end of this video because that's what I'm gonna share with you in this video.
Hey, it's your girl Stephanie Rodnez; Founder and CEO of Godlywoodgirl, Creator of the Godlywoodgirl School of Business. My purpose in life is to connect you with the resources you need to achieve your purpose in life. So if you are looking for resources to help you achieve your God given purpose as a Christian entrepreneur, make sure you subscribe to the Godlywoodgirl YouTube channel because that's what we do here sis! Now let's dive into one of the most important things I think I can share with you going into 2020 and it's the truth about starting a Christian t- shirt business online that nobody tells you.
Now why start a Christian t- shirt business right? The great thing about having a Christian t shirt business is that if the Lord has purpose you to be an entrepreneur, having a t- shirt business is one of the fastest and easiest ways to get there. You can literally start a t- shirt business within an hour I'm not kidding, within an hour. Those of you girls who have been in the Godlywoodgirl T- Shirt Business Accelerator have seen me start a Christian t- shirt business in 20 minutes, you can do it very, very quickly. And it costs nothing to start if you use a print-on-demand business model, which is you use one of these printing services, who will print and ship your shirt for you, all you need to do is design the shirt and then do your marketing. You can start for $0 so it's something that does not have a financial barrier of entry. And it's something that is super, super easy to do. So that's why it's great to have a Christian t- shirt business. And that's why I recommend it for all my girls who the Lord purpose to be an entrepreneur because it's a great way to start building your business. Start building your brand for literally $0 upfront.
However, as much as I have enjoyed sharing these tips and resources to help you start your Christian t- shirt business. There's something that I'm noticing a lot and I get all your comments via email, via dm here on YouTube, there's something that I'm noticing a lot. And it's that when you start the t- shirt business, you good. But when it comes to actually making sales, you're kind of coming into a roadblock. And that's why I wanted to create this video because the truth is, yes, it's very, very easy to start a Christian t- shirt business, you can start in 20 minutes. What's difficult is doing the work required to actually make sales that is the honest truth. Just because we start a t- shirt business doesn't mean we're going to automatically make sales.
I know a lot of us especially as Christians, we love the Lord, and we adore the Lord. And we think that if we do our part, and we start the business, then God's gonna do his part and do our marketing and do our sales for us. He's just going to inspire people to just wake up in the morning and say: “I gotta go buy Stephanie's t shirt”. That's how I felt when I started my first business in 2008. I, I'm a filmmaker and I started a business. And I had my first movie. And I thought once I put that movie on amazon.com, for sale, the Lord was just gonna have millions of people magically wake up the next day and say: “I need to buy Stephanie Rodnez’ movie. Let me go to amazon.com type in Stephanie Rodnez movie and buy it”. That's what I really thought was gonna happen. So when it didn't happen, and I wasn't making any sales, I literally launched my product and heard crickets. I was confused. I was like: “Look, I did the work of making the movie. Shouldn't you now do your part and help me make sales” until the Lord had me discover what it says in Genesis 3: 17 and 18?
Now sis, do you remember the book of Genesis, before sin happened? We were in the Garden of Eden and we were able to eat that fruit whenever we wanted to. If we were hungry, all we had to do was reach up into the tree. It was already done. We didn't have to plant anything, harvest anything, water, anything, nothing but food was there already for us to eat. And then sin happened. And then Genesis 317 and 18. The Lord says, “because of this sin, it is by the sweat of your brow that you shall now eat”. God did not say we can't eat anymore, he's still going to give us the fruit. But now it's by the sweat of our brow, our labor, that we will see that fruit. Before sin, the Lord planted the seed, the Lord water the plant, the Lord allow that plant to harvest and then when it did harvest, we were able to eat. After sin, we now have to get the seed, dig the hole, plant that seed, water the seed, and here is where God does his part.
Once we've done those steps, if the Lord sees fit, he will allow that seed to take root and grow and produce fruit. But even when it produces fruit, we still have work to do. We have to go and harvest the tree. The Lord is not going to take that fruit from that tree and feed it to us. No mam, the fruit there, you got to do the harvest. That is what marketing is. For any business that we start, we planted the seed by starting the business. We've watered the seed by actually creating the product. We are praying for the Lord to bless it, but now we've got to do the harvest. We've got to do the marketing to give God something to bless. You have to do marketing for your Christian t- shirts in order to make sales. I don't care how beautiful your shirt is designed. If you don't do marketing, nobody is going buy it. I don't care how big a problem your t- shirt business solves. If you don't do marketing, nobody's going to buy it. I don't care how gorgeous and how cute and how fashion forward the shirts are. If you don't do marketing, nobody is going to buy it!
For my girls in the Godlywoodgirl T- Shirt Business Accelerator where I show them how to start a T shirt business in five days or less, the biggest lesson that I share in that accelerator is that your shirt honestly doesn't matter. It doesn't matter because you can create the best, most amazing t- shirt ever. But if you don't tell people that you made it, nobody is going buy it. The most important part of being an entrepreneur is marketing, telling people about the solution we have that solves their problem. That is the most important part. And as a Christian t- shirt business owner, your most important job is not designing your shirt sis. It is marketing and telling people that you got the shirts for. Marketing is telling a person about the solution to a problem. That's all it is the problem that you solve with your t- shirt business. It is your job to find people who have that problem and tell them you've created this solution with your t- shirt business. It's your job. That is the most important part about starting a Christian t- shirt business.
Now, here's the thing that's so amazing. If you make marketing your priority, you can actually start your Christian t- shirt business with no t- shirt. You can literally do the marketing, build your audience and then ask your audience what t- shirt they want. They tell you and now you give them the shirt, check out my T- Shirt Business Plan For 2020 that really goes into these steps. That's what's so great, but the key is we are giving God something to bless we are doing our marketing, we are doing our promotions, we are letting people know about the solution that we have to their problem. This is the most important thing you will do as a Christian t- shirt business owner. And marketing includes YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, blogging, paid ads, free ads, collaborations, influencer content, whatever you want to do for your marketing is fine. You can even do marketing by going to events in your area by doing promotions on the Radio, whatever you want to do is fine. Just do marketing, do marketing and make that your priority as a Christian t- shirt business owner.
So I hope that this video struck a chord with you a little bit because it's what I wish I knew when I started my business in 2008. It did take me quite some time to figure out that if I want to make sales, I got to do marketing in my business. But praise God, marketing is now my number one priority as a Christian business owner, because I have a solution that's going to help people solve a problem. So if I'm not telling people about it, I'm actually doing them a disservice. I'm actually messing somebody up by not telling her: “Hey, this is the problem you have. I have a solution that's gonna solve it for you”. If I'm not telling her about it, I'm actually being selfish. I'm deciding that my distaste of marketing or me wanting to watch Netflix all day is gonna stand in the way of me actually helping a woman of Christ solve her problem. And that's what helps me do my marketing. Because I'm remembering this is not about me. I was put on this earth to serve you. I was put on this earth to help you get the resources you need to achieve your purpose. So every single time I don't tell you about those resources, I'm not doing what God put me here to do and that is selfish. For you, you have a solution that God puts you here for to help people solve a problem. See it as you are serving them that solution you are helping eliminate that pain point. You are helping them step into the life they really want. You're not selling them something they don't need, you are giving them a solution to a problem that they want solved.
See your marketing that way. Be obedient, do the work and give God something to bless.

ABOUT GODLYWOOD GIRL
Hey sis! It's your girl Stephanie Rodnez, founder & CEO of Godlywood Girl, and I want to welcome you to the Godlywood Girl sisterhood. If you're a woman who loves the Lord and wants to live His greatest purpose for your life as a Christian entrepreneur, then I created this website especially for you.
I started Godlywood Girl in 2013 as a way to help myself heal from the heartache and trauma of failing at my first business. You see, I was a filmmaker creating movies for Christian youth groups, but a series of bad decisions and mismanagement led to me almost having to declare bankruptcy on my first business.
For two years I sat in depression from the failure of that business, until one day, a video by Dr. ET Thomas inspired me to get back up and step into my purpose again. As a result, I got back to my God-given purpose as a Christian entrepreneur, and Godlywood Girl was born. My goal with Godlywood Girl is to connect you with the resources you need to achieve your greatest purpose for Christ as a Christian entrepreneur.
Whether you're just getting started on your journey, or you're a seasoned purposepreneur in the biz, I want to welcome you to the Godlywood Girl sisterhood. You are my sister, and I can't wait to connect with you online.
xox,
Stephanie (Godlywood Girl) Rodnez
