My Headbands Lame? Help Me Figure It Out

[WenULiVeUdiE]

Those are awesome. I think if you had the first one with the red logo's or w/e instead of gray( sorry, im colorblind) But they're not lame. Dont listen to people on PBN. It's useless.

When I say special, I mean, do you have any other fabrics? perhaps a fabric with gray, orange and yellow in it? I'm thinking that an AO belt might be nice =)

Oh, and can you sew velcro onto them? I saw a band once that went around your nitro tank to hold the sqeegee. Struck me as a cool idea.

I think the whole designer pb gear thing itself is kinda stupid, but whatever floats your boat...

If people are buying them, who cares what some guys at PBN have to say about them? Just ignoe them. Judging by the pics, they appear to be pretty good quality.

Just a joke bud. Damn, I forgot the smilie. Which one do I use to say Ia m joking? :)

I think your stuff is well made. No need to go knocking you off bro. I hope you do well, makes lots of money and put those PBN dudes to SHAME!

Yeah, I knew it was a joke, but there is no smilie, I could use to show it. So I used the tongue one.

They look like great quality headbands, I just think the whole designer thing is retarded. I think you did good though.
My vote:
Actual headband/design: Not lame. Very good.
Fabric: I still dont understand who would want to wear one of these, but if it floats your boat..

Dude, your headbands look great. I'm saying this and I don't even like your product! That means there isn't really a problem with it. I mean, you could probably add a little trimming here, some more elaborate stichting there, etc, but that doesn't really matter since it's supposed to be a designer print headband.

Slipknot, we can both agree, the kids over on pbn are making me rich, don't know about you though

[hAppy]

PBN is one of the worst places to take advice from. SOMEtimes you will find a intelligent post, but other than that, no.

Personally I think the whole designer's and pink fads are pretty (anyword that describes dislike). But if they sell, why stop making them?

Anyway, keep up the good work. Don't worry about what people have to say. It's a bunch of 13 year olds who run their mouths with no regards for other's feelings. And 13 year olds talk a lot of smack if you know what I mean.

COWBOY UP! bussiness is a tuff affair.

well here are some questions you should ask yourself about your product.

-What is so special about your product compared to other similar products?
-will this product fullfill a demand and how great is that demand?

the way i see it your selling point is the "designer look" of the headbands. Now, consider the market for that look.

If i were you i would look into product improvement of the headband itself. Maybe develop a new way to affix the headband, or make it a headband/du-rag combo. Because at this point your headband is just a headband. People look at it and go, "that is a headband made by SlipknotX556" and not "that is a Burbury/Fendi/Gucci" headband. Now maybe people cant distingush that on the field but, at this point, your showcasing your product to a plethora of critics. Expect people to diss on your products. What im saying is people recognize you are trying to capitalize on a image that is not yours, not anyone's image for all i know.

In anycase i give you props, because i give props to people who make honest money. But personally i think you would do well if you invested more time into improving the headband in generall and not the aesthetics of it.

Like others have said, if they are selling who cares what others say? You will ALWAYS get people who say a product is stupid, will not sell, etc. no matter what you make or how big your business is. And the range of reasons for folks saying negative things is quite diverse.

So the real question is if the product is selling. If it is, and the customers are happy with it, then you have your REAL answer. Not every customer will buy every product. Such is the world of business.

Sam, It is PBN. What did you expect? THey are a flame fest looking to happen.

Forget about them.

By the way, I prefer the Ban-du to the headbands because I like the extra level of protection from ticks.

I think they are well made and wear mine every time I play.

Good luck!

Oops, misread it.

Hey Slipknot,
It's PBN, forget about it. They are looking for reasons to flame. I think they look just fine!

you use too much terry cloth. you shouldn't be able to see the terry cloth from the other size. make the cuts smaller.

[Head knight of Ni]

Meh, the terry cloth gives it a good look IMO.
