In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Business Rockstar's Cristina Quiania takes a tour of fashion brand Good hYOUman to learn about social media, building a community and starting a business.

Quiania talks with founder Brett Novek, who says he didn't know how to print T-shirts and had just $1,500 to start his business. Due to those limits, Novek performed every role of the business, waking up at 6 a.m. and going to bed at 1 a.m. to make sure the business had a chance early on.
