RealWarriorGrafix is attempting to raise funds to help with the start up of our small business.
Hi, my name is Joe LeBlanc.
and for the last two years my family and I have been designing and screen printing t-shirts and signs as a hobby and a way for us to do something that we all enjoy and can do together. That is how "RWG" got started.
Since then, we have gained quite a following. And because we have been doing this out of our garage... we are busting out at the seams.
It is now time for a bigger space and to open our first retail location.
Well what is RWG?
"RWG" is a contemporary retail clothing outlet designed to attract the Native American population (but not limited to it).Featuring "RealWarrior Gear" clothing and accessories. In addition RWG will provide Native American themed styles to the population of our area who wish to dress and accessorize in the latest, hip fashions.
We will offer a full range of printed designs, logos, colors and sizes as well as music and art from our local artists to our customers. Also provide the Native American youth with an opportunity to create their own place in urban/hip fashion culture.
At the same time, spread awareness of positive social and cultural issues and the ever so importance of anti-drug/bullying that plagues our youth today everywhere not only in Native American communities.
Living in close proximity to (2) two large Indian reservations, I know all too well how these negative social issues affect our easily influenced children and young adults.
What we need & What you get.
Whether we are funded 100% or not...
I promise that every penny will go towards RWG's goal of hitting the ground running! the funds will be used to buy updated equipment and the newest technology in the garment decoration industry to be better able to give our customers the best quality merchandise available.
We will also get a professionally designed website that allows the consumer to design and order custom printed garments from the internet from anywhere, at anytime. To RWG this is very important, and will give us the tools that we need to compete in the ever growing garment decoration industry. All funds will go directly to:
- Supplies $2,000.00
- Stock $4,300.00
- Advertising and Signage $1,100.00
- Software, Pos system and website $7,500.00
- Bookkeeping $2,200.00
- DTG technology and supplies (New equipment) $19,000.00
-
Last but not least... We will need to lease our business space. $1,400.00
Once we get up and running at 100%... we will begin to carry ourselves and get our product out to our customers. So, pick the level that you would like to contribute at from the list of perks and we will show you our appreciation.
Why Indiegogo?
Well... there are a few reasons.
We need to know that other people believe in us and that others think it's an AWESOME idea and are willing to help make a statement.
And we can use the support from all you great people out there to help make RWG a huge success.

Risks and Challenges
I do understand that starting a new business is quite a challenge and, it takes commitment & dedication to succeed. I am also aware of the obstacles that stand between me and "The American Dream", and RWG is prepared to overcome every challenge with enthusiasm as well as commitment.
Every one of our customers will receive the highest standard of customer service and quality merchandise.
