When I return home from Acapulco, I'll start to figure out pricing, and how to handle shipping cost/orders here on Steemit. I will also be traveling to many bjj competitions to sell these and educate bjj/mma fighters on how Steemit can be a great platform for promote themselves and further their training and careers.
I will give discounted prices to those who order in bulk for their friends/academies. Remember, you can buy these at a discount and flip them to your friends where you train, sell them to your academy to sell. It will give you a great talking point/conversation starter to promote the platform to the bjj/mma community and attract them to give Steemit a try!
These are 5-inch, woven patches, to be sewn into your gi, gym bag, beach bag, or clothing that you choose! 500 of each color scheme are available. More info coming soon!

Excellent man, can't wait to see them on a Gi. Great work, they look legit.
Yeah, I'm going to get one sewn into the gi pant, and one into the gi jacket. I'll have pics after that. I think the biggest part is figuring out how to price them on Steemit. I mean I can say send me X amount of SBD or Steem with a huge markup that should allow me to ship anywhere in the world. But that's bad for the people who live near me, it's like they are paying a premium. I think what I'll do is have the base price of 1 patch, or a discount for say 10-20 patches. The buyer must send me the base price with their email address in the memo. I can then email them to get their shipping info in private, then calculate shipping. They can then send the remaining balance.
I hope they sell ok, because they were expensive to make. I think it will be a good tool to attract this audience. Then I can use the profits to set up the steemitbjj.com website which will give more info to people who are interested in Steemit. I can also use the profits to make more steemitbjj goods such as t-shirts, mma/bjj shorts, spats, compression shirts, etc. I want to try to get this logo and name spreading into that community, because it's already such a great community on mainstream social media. We see trending posts on FB, Twitter, IG, YouTube, every day for MMA and BJJ. We want to attract those people here!
You're on the right path man for sure, you've got your brand already and it looks legit as fuck. You can do no wrong here in my opinion, I think Steemit is starving for pages like yours to bring it more to the mainstream, I'm with you all the way bro ;) If i can help in anyway let me know.
Thanks @thecryptkeeper, that is the plan. To build a brand and show that you can use this to recruit more people and also run a business.
We will see. I think it may take awhile to sell through these patches. But, I do think as I attract more people interested in our type of content they will sell. I think when I get the website up that explains to people what steemit is and how it can be used for academies, students, and competitors in jiu jitsu, mma and martial arts, that it will be much easier.
Thanks for the offer! I'll def let ya'll know what kind of help I may need. Just keep posting your good content :)
Same to you bro, enjoy the rest of your trip ;)

Thanks!
Omg I want one!!
We'll get you one Sofie :) hopefully one day it will be steemit spats, fight shorts, etc. Start simple with patches. We need Steemit sponsored fighters though :) I think this is a good platform to build up funds to help pay for training, travel for comps and fights, etc. We just have to build more of an mma/jits community here. And you're doing just that! Your posts are interesting to read and you're getting some good payouts.
You'll see more info on the patches soon.
Drop me your email if you wanna talk about some more specific ideas. I mean you're a fighter and as far as I know you're the first female mma fighter I've seen post. You gotta build on that! Take advantage of that status before the rest of the girls show up! I mean there are a few jiu jitsu girls already. What's it gonna be in a year?!

Great promotional post, thanks for sharing.
No problem. I hope you buy a patch :)
At the moment i don't have so much $ steem to buy.
Do you cash out all you bring in? It doesn't look like you even keep your steem power?! Do you realize that you will make more money on steemit by NOT cashing out/powering down your steem power? If you let your steem power build up and your upvote is worth more, more people will notice when you upvote them and are more likely to follow you and upvote your posts.
No offense, I mean it's your account, you should do as you please. But, just as advice, you should try to let your steem power build. I bet you make more $$$ in the long term by doing this :)
Thanks for commenting on my post though :)
i power up always, never cash out.
powering up is like saving in a black hole. lol.
:O Theeey are beautiful my friend!!
Thanks! I'll have prices for them in a post soon!
