Back in October of 2009 is when I cut ties with my old boss and started my own patch website to wholesale and retail patches online. This makes us 7 years old now. A lot has happened in 7 years. Let me reflect on some parts.
October 2009. I left working for a friend of mine and started my own website. I picked the name TheCheapPlace.com. Thought it would be something that would stick to people's minds. I invested about $7000 in getting my patch designs manufactured in my friends factory. She was kind enough to give me very low minimum orders to get my business going and I have stuck with her till this day.
