Temptation from our sponsors...
The kind folks at Dream Gold were nice enough to not only give our readers an exclusive coupon, but do an interview with Tee Junction! As such, I’ll keep my blabbering to a minimum and let Serji and Tara — Dream Gold’s founders — do the talking instead.
The coupon is JUNCTION for 15% off, and will last to the end of April.
Now onto the interview!
Q: Thanks for doing an interview with Tee Junction! How about introducing you and your company to our readers?
A: Thanks for interviewing us!
Q: How did you guys get inspired to start a clothing line? When did you get your start?
A: Well, it all started with us, the owners, meeting each other. We have been together for 3 years now, and we couldn’t be any more happier with what we have. After a couple of years, we felt like we wanted to create something that we could call our own, and be proud of it at the same time. We knew that doing something like this would not only create a great sense of accomplishment but also open up opportunities for us in the future. The idea of making original t-shirts that our friends, family and others could wear was very gratifying so we gave it a go. June 12th, 2009 set the mark of Dream Gold’s launch, and the rest is history. 
Q: What would you say is the concept behind your brand?
A: Our brand believes that any one, no matter what gender, race, colour, age, and background you are, you have a chance to shine, and be a lot more then others see you as. Our mission is to share this lifestyle with anyone who comes in contact with our brand. We believe that it’s not about being born into royalty; it’s about seeing it, feeling it, and being it.
Q: Where do you plan to take Dream Gold?
A: Dream Gold so far has accomplished to make 3 shirts, as well as a variety of pins and delicious gold chocolate coins in it’s short life span, and we always work towards not only making shirts, but also go into custom cut & sew products, fitted hats, winter wear, accessories, novelty items, and much, much more. We don’t want to plan too much ahead, but I’m sure it’s every business owner’s dream to open a real physical store somewhere well known, and since we live in Toronto, a city of great culture and diverse society, it’s a safe bet that Dream Gold will continue to grow it’s roots from here. You can hopefully expect us to appear at next year’s warped tour, and maybe other places around Canada, and US.
Q: And finally, do you have any advice for others looking to get into the biz?
A: Yeah, for sure. If you don’t have a lot of start up budget, then always use your resources carefully and learn to be very self sufficient. Be optimistic, and don’t expect to be an overnight success.
Thanks for talking to us, Serji and Tara! I’m really looking forwards to seeing where this brand goes in the future.
