To answer the SD Card question, the card removes the directory to the file. The file can still be recovered and is still on the device, until it is overwritten by a new file needed to fit that slot.

It’s very important that you’re paint is applied in incredibly thin layers when painting toe boxes, and for the most part anytime you can avoid even painting highly creased areas and rather incorporate the original color into your design is super ideal!

As the business grows as a customizer, what kind of business needs to be set-up for taxes?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

So how you’re taxed will be the same for all of those, yes your supplies are write offs. I imagine which one you choose will solely depend on the size your business and where you see it could go.. yes anytime you’re working with a bigger organization they’ll send you a w9 to fill out so will need a business id for that.. you can set most of this up at your local bank for not that much..

I’m definitely a year late but for context, I’m a Product Design Engineer for an Automotive company & have worked with Intellectual Property many times- I may not be in law but I do know how to not get sued😂 Essentially you’d be using Nike as a “supplier” (maybe not formally but a place you are purchasing materials) so no you wouldn’t run into legal issues with Nike If you put your artistic work/value on it. Where you need to be careful is the artwork on your product. Businesses will often file patents, trademarks, etc. on designs, symbols, literary & artistic works as Intellectual Property with the USPTO- so if the original inventor has a protection on their IP, they have legal right to sue your business. This is why novelty/originality of a product is super important!! If you have some questions or even want me to explain product launches/releases to influence customer satisfaction, I’d be happy to help :) I’m super passionate about it & always look for opportunities to discuss it

What if you can't afford Angelus? Or the right materials and the only material you have access to is from the craft store?

Check out last weeks video we take a deep dive into that topic! You definitly want to start with the right products.

@@DeJesusCustomFootwear okay thank you.

I’m just into Customize shoe. How do you charge them. Like do you need upfront or no. And since I’m under 18 I don’t have paypal or Venmo none like that. Any tips?

[@DeJesusCustomFootwear]

Upfront is the best option for you , and gives you the most protection.. however it can potentially turn some customers away who may prefer payment after completion or some type of half up front half when done deal.. I would get all the payment apps set up through your parents in the case

DeJesus Custom Footwear I do have a paypal account but they freeze my account
