Yo! Hope everyone is doing well and thanks so much for coming back to our weekly mailer! This edition is going to be a little shorter than usual as this week I’m announced that BIG news I’ve been talking about for what seems to have been for months, and I want to spend some time talking about it.
So if you’ve been following along for awhile now, the waiting is officially over. But first, let’s get to all of the news from this past week.

All Punked Up specific news…
Ok everyone. Are you ready for the news? If so, I’m ready to give it to you. So here we go. For the last maybe year or so, I’ve contemplated growing All Punked Up into being something much more than a news site. As an entrepreneur, I’ve had this idea in the past—before APU—but nothing really came to fruition. At the time, I didn’t have the skills, I didn’t have the software, I didn’t have the smarts to really get the idea off the ground.
With that said, I think it’s pretty cool looking back now on how I had an idea to create something in the past, and now many years later, that idea is launching. So what’s the idea? The idea and new direction for All Punked Up is a new clothing line! We have a pretty big assortment of shirts, tanks, hats and accessories. I cannot wait to share them all with you.
Currently, the store is still under construction. The look and feel is in place, but I need to get some behind-the-scenes stuff done and in place first—business type stuff. I’m hoping to get this thing going and officially launched in the next couple of weeks. Once I’m confident that everything is in working order, we’ll start teasing on social media and all of that fun stuff, but as promised, I wanted to make sure I told you subscribers first!
Here’s a sneak peek of some of our products:
Hope you dig some of these! Again, we’ll be officially launching within the next few weeks with a dedicated website for the shop. Stay tuned!
