Making print. Business advice

[PrintUS]

Hey guys!
New to this forum, I'm looking for advice. I want to run business and I think about starting with making prints. I read some info about this stuff and I think about buying a screen printing machine. I would be really grateful for any advice because I'm absolutely newbie. Share your experience and pitfalls, it's very important for me. Thanks in advance!

Welcome,

Before we can give you any direction, let me ask you a question - Why screen printing?

Welcome,

Before we can give you any direction, let me ask you a question - Why screen printing?

You mean why not a heat press? Or why making print at all?

upd. As for making prints generally, I just like prints, that's it. I like beautiful prints on t-shirts, cups and so on. As for the print screening, I've read this article (https://wisepick.org/best-screen-printing-machine/#guide), I mean "Screen printing machine vs. heat press". I compared these 2 ways making prints and I think print screening is better to start with, maybe one day I'll change my opinion.

So let's take this to the next logical step. You've gone out and bought a screen printing machine; how are you going to turn that investment into cash flow and the cash flow into profit?
