Show "Xiao Zhu [Little Pig]" Lo's self established brand STAGE was opened in Shimen Walker last June, and in less than a year, he's already opened up overseas. Following the opening of the branch in Singapore in March, the Hong Kong branch was opened two days ago.
With his investment costs, net profit, and franchising costs, Show had kept confidential, but just recently when the Taipei branch stocked in with 200 "Superhero" and "Bi Bi Ren" hoodies that were priced at $2,800 a piece, they were all sold out within 30 minutes, which rolled in a proud record of $5.6 million, very impressive.
On his own brand's website, he personally modeled for the clothing, wearing all the clothes, which makes it hard not to move the fans.
Also, he and Xiao Gui while hosting "100% Entertainment" would wear different designs each episode, helping warm up the new merchandise;
he also wears STAGE clothing on a regular basis most the time.
And he also very generously shared his clothing with A-Mei Chang, and other good friends in the entertainment business, giving them the clothing for free, which equates helping advertise the brand. And because he'd become good friends with Louis Koo due to the collaboration for Pepsi, recently Louis Koo had came to Taiwan to promote the movie "Yi Ge Hao Ba Ba - Run Papa Run," even though the 2 were unable to meet up, but Show promised to give Louis clothes.
Disney Also Soon To AuthorizeShow had run STAGE into a dazzling market, even Disney happily authorized it, where a line of Mickey Mouse T-Shirts will be released in August.
And for his next sideline, he's targeted on opening up a restaurant, he said, "I really love eating eggs, I want to open an egg-themed restaurant."
4 Tricks on Show's Free Promoting For Side Work- Self As Model : the promotion pictures on the brand's website are all personally done by himself.
- T.V. Promotion : While hosting "100% Entertainment," it's a must wear, free advertising
- Promoting All the Time On a Regular Basis : He wears it almost every day, going out, even wearing it to watch concerts, even candid pictures are advertisements
- Celebrity friends help promote : Giving clothes to A-Mei Chang, selina, Rainie Yang, also free endorsements.

【吳禮強╱台北報導】
羅志祥(小豬)自創潮牌「STAGE」服裝店,去年6月在西門町開幕,短短1年不到,已開放海外加盟,繼3月新加坡之後,香港加盟店也於前天開張。
他對投資成本、營業額、加盟金等數字一概保密,但日前台北本店創下200件單價2800元的「超人裝」、「嗶嗶人」連帽T恤,30分鐘內就售罄、吸金56萬元的傲人紀錄,相當厲害。
他在品牌網站(http://www.ilovestage.com.tw/)親自擔任模特兒,換穿多款衣服拍照,讓粉絲很難不心動。
其次,他和小鬼主持《娛樂百分百》,每集換穿不同新裝,為將上架的新貨暖身;
平時他也幾乎都穿STAGE的衣服。
而他也不吝與張惠妹等藝人好友分享,免費送產品給她們穿,等於讓這些大明星在無形中為該品牌宣傳。
他因和古天樂一起代言可樂結為好友,日前古天樂來台宣傳電影《一個好爸爸》,2人雖沒碰到面,但小豬已允諾要送古天樂衣服。
迪士尼也將授權
他把STAGE經營得有聲有色,連迪士尼都樂意授權,8月將推出米老鼠系列T恤。
而他下一個副業則鎖定餐廳,他說:「我超愛吃蛋,想開1家以蛋為主題的店。」
小豬推副業免錢4招
.自己當麻豆:品牌網站上的宣傳照片,由他親自示範
.上電視放送:主持《娛樂百分百》時必穿,免費廣告
.生活中強打:幾乎天天穿,外出、看演唱會都穿,被偷拍也是宣傳
.星友助宣傳:贈衣給張惠妹、Selina、楊丞琳,形同免費代言
