“Budget secrets those fat cats don’t want you to know…” – T. Grimshaw

“How to stick it Wall Street” – W.B Kershaw

“Healthy weight = Healthy savings” – S. Colaluca

Do you remember when you were a struggling student who took out multiple loans, saved every penny and stayed home on the weekends to prepare for the launch of your line?

The day an independent stockist rang you and said they would LOVE to have your first collection in store…

That afternoon you made it to the PRESS as you excitedly flicked through the magazine…

Remember the feeling when you sat down with the buyers from David Jones & Myer. Do you remember the joy and elation you felt when they said you were going to be in EVERY store across Australia?

The success was addictive. You thought you would CAPITALISE on your venture.

You introduced a children’s line. Your quality stitching, sewing and designs for one eighth of the price. Genius you thought. Amazing!

But you didn’t count one thing into your cost…
