We won't forget the little people when....

our new t-shirt business makes a killing.

Jim and I have been curious to learn the ins and outs of doing business online. So, we launched a silly little t-shirt business in honor of the 17 year cicada just to see what would happen. You can visit our store at www.cicadatees.com.

What have we learned so far?
  • That everything takes 3 times as much tinkering as you think.
  • Venders (and others) sometimes disappoint you and we weren't able to launch 2 other designs as hoped. Bummer. They were good.
  • Search engine advertising is easy to set up, but complicated to master.
  • Jim and I have very different advertising philosophies. It takes a lot of bickering and hmphs to come to an agreement.
All suggestions welcome...and we'll even split the profits with you if you provide an image we like. If we make any money at all, we plan to keep the thing up for the next cicada brood in another part of the country.

Is this for real? Is that a cicada in the martini glass?
