Try Change: A New Year!

Well here we are at the beginning of a New Year. This is a time to reflect on the goals we have achieved, opportunities missed and new goals to set. With the help of our friends & family, volunteers at Volunteers of America Chesapeake and the support of the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce we were able to successfully launch the Try Change line of T-Shirts. We had many success stories from the launch of our shirts by WKYS at the Fashion Mechanics store in the Potomac Mills Outlet Mall to our appearance on the Guy Lambert Show on WPGC... We really hit the streets with a bang!

To be a brand new company and to be featured in stores not only in DC but MD and VA is truly outstanding!

I could go and on about the many accomplishments that we have reached this year but to do so reminds me of an old line about a boxer who gets counter punched while admiring a jab he just threw. We have to keep focused on the future. With that in mind let me share what's up next for Try Change.

With the help of David B. Anthony at DBA International we updated our MySpace Page to reflect our growing company. On our Myspace page you can now see videos and pictures of our Try Change T-Shirts as well as music from from our new MySpace friends. As you can see David also has updated our blog page and we will have our new Try Change website completed shortly featuring videos, store locations and a social responsibility page.

We have had some great success in 2008, however I feel it's time for us to take the training wheels off and make sales presentations to some of the larger chain stores. Even in this economy there will be success stories and I figure why not be one of them.

I could not close without saying thank you to the stores who currently carry the Try Change line:

Fashion Mechanics in the Springfield and Manassas Mall

Evado in the Fair Oaks Mall

Shadows in the Foretville Centre

SWANK in the Pentagon City Mall

Indigo in Georgetown

Sport Zone- Selected locations

Remember that we donate 10% to our official partners Volunteers of America Chesapeake. If you want to purchase a Try Change T-Shirts but cannot get to MD, VA or DC you can purchase them online at SWANK's online store.
