Want to Earn $5000 Towards Your Production?

And how to deal with the increasing tariffs

Hi, friend

US brands are nervous, confused, and uncertain about the increased tariffs and what direction to take.

Even offshore suppliers are feeling the pressure.

And it’s not surprising, considering 97% of fashion products in the US are currently imported.

Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ may feel more like a prison right now!

It’s easy to let these fears take control, but to overcome these challenges, you must approach things with clarity and courage.

The key is to take proactive steps, focus on what you can control, and stay open to possibilities because new opportunities are always if you’re willing to look for them.

So, what can you do next?

Here are some actionable strategies you can explore:

✅ Negotiate with Suppliers – Don’t be afraid to push for better terms.

✅ Diversify Your Sourcing – Consider shifting to countries with lower tariffs.

✅ Expand to Alternative Markets Expanding into new markets, especially those with preferential tariffs, can mitigate the impact of tariffs in the US. 

✅ Adjust Pricing Strategically – If you raise prices, be honest and transparent with your customers.

✅ Review Margins & Expenses – See where you can cut without compromising your core offering.

✅ Rethink Materials & Packaging – Lower-cost fabrics and simplified packaging can make a real impact.

✅ Nearshoring – Explore options closer to home to reduce shipping time and cost.

Speaking about nearshoring, our friends at Nearshore, an AI-driven platform that helps brands find and connect with factories across the USA, Latin America, and Europe is giving away $5,000 manufacturing grant to three small businesses to fuel their nearshoring efforts.

To apply you must:

  • Make under $5M in annual revenue

  • Produce a physical product 

  • Actively looking to nearshore their production in the USA, Canada, Latin America or Europe.

  • Be based in the US
