When I started my pride merch business I promised that I would donate half of all profits with a LGBTQIA non profit, to support my community. I selected the Trevor Project, and I recently made my first donation! It’s not much but every bit help, and I hope to make this a yearly "end of pride month" tradition!
I had a blast selling at Somerville New Jersey's family pride night,, I met a lot of very nice supportive people and everyone seemed to be having a great time. I hope to be back next year with a bigger product selection and absolutely a credit card reader! I never want to do an event without one again! Now that Pride Month is finished I’m taking the time to work on my business. I have been uploading more art to Redbubble and Zazzle, working on my SEO for Zazzle and my marketing for Etsy, and adding content to my website to hopefully someday qualify for adsense! I’ll be adding some new free pride flag graphics later this week! Omnigender, Quiogender, and Aporaender! I’m also thinking of adding a short blurb about each flag, with links to more information. That’s a lot of ground to cover so it might take a while. Haven’t figured out the best way to do that without distracting from the images yet. Hopefully I’ll figure something out soon. I’m also keeping an ear out for any pride friendly local events that might need vendors, so if anyone hears of any (in Central New Jersey) please post a comment below.
