Offer a Variety of Items
Use the same artwork on a t-shirt, a women’s tank, a hoodie, a cinch sack and a rally towel. Optimize your printing costs by using the same design on a variety of items and sell more to the same customer. Use bundling to put together fun packs that might include a cap, a shirt and a bag! Try different shirt styles, this 2 color Goof Proof design, QFB-261 on a camo colorblock long sleeve t-shirt (ST376LS).
Optimize the Gang Sheet
We sell custom transfers by the sheet. You paid for the real estate, be sure to capitalize on it! Use extra space for a branding shirt tag, a cap print, or for a free print on rally towels! For our screen-printed transfers, Goof Proof, Hot Split and Elasti Prints, our standard sheet is 11.25” x 14” and Jumbo sheets are 12.5”x 17.5”. Screen printed transfers are perfect for 1-2 color printing. If you want to print in full color, our UltraColor Pro digital transfers are a large, 11.5” x 18” sheet size.
