Custom Shirts For Your Business
Jul 08, 2020
Are you a small business owner looking to get custom t-shirts made for your business? Not sure where to start? No worries, we've got you covered.
All you need is - nothing!
This is not a trick. If you don't have any idea what you want, or have a logo or design, it's ok, we can help you!
Here are a few simple steps to getting your custom apparel created:
1. Decide on the type of apparel you are looking for.
If you are looking for simple tees for your staff, the Next Level 6210 is a solid choice. If you are in need of thicker hoodies, the Ei-Lo brand offers great garments that have a bit more weight to them. Or are you looking for a polo that needs to have UV protection? We've got multiple options that would be great for your team.

2. Determine how many pieces of apparel you need.
If you have employees who need to wear your shirts at every shift, you may want to look into getting multiple for each employee. If your team works inside and out, you will want to get multiple tees or polos, but also a pullover for any weather condition. This can be overwhelming to think about, but we are happy to offer recommendations. We also recommend reaching out to your employees to see what their needs are to make the most educated guess on how many pieces to order.
3. Pick out your colors.
Whether you are looking for a muted gray tee, or want bright neon colors so your team stands out, we have a wide variety of options that will be a perfect fit for yourself and your employees.
4. Send in your logo.
If you don't have a logo, want to update your logo, or just don't have a high quality image, we can help you there! We offer free design work when you purchase tees, and are happy to work with you to get the perfect design that represents your brand.
If you do have files of your logo, .ai files work best for us to be able to convert your logo into a 'print-ready' image. If you don't have an .ai file, any high resolution images of your logo will work.
5. Approve your design.
Once we get your logo or design and place it on mockups of your apparel, all we need is an approval, then you are on your way! If you need to make adjustments, don't hesitate to give feedback on what you like, and would like change. We want you to be 100% satisfied with your apparel. Don't worry, you won't hurt our feelings, we promise!
6. Sit back and relax while we get your apparel printed!
Once we get the 'OK' from you on your artwork and mockups, we are ready to get your order on the presses. Typically a turn around can take 2 weeks (10 business days), but if we can get it done sooner for you, we definitely will. If you need a rush order, there is an up-charge, but nothing too crazy. We can get items turned around as quickly as 2 days. Check with Simeon or Gabe to see what our print schedule looks like, and if your apparel can be rushed.
7. Your apparel is ready to ship or be picked up!
Once your apparel has finished printing, you can stop by the shop or we can ship it directly to you!
8. Start wearing your apparel and represent your businesses with custom apparel!
Now you and your employees can wear your branded apparel that you had a part of making from start to finish! You can be proud of the apparel you created, and know that you just made an awesome investment that will provide great branding as well as a solid team environment when everyone is wearing your design.
9. Let us know when you need to re-order or if you would like new apparel.
It's time to re-order, and we've saved all of your artwork, apparel counts, and notes so we can quickly get your re-order ready to go. Or we can create a brand new design for you on different apparel to offer another uniform option, or as holiday gifts. The need for new apparel is endless!
And there you have it! You are now a custom t-shirt buying expert!
Are you ready to get started with your own custom apparel? We are happy to help! Our team is ready to walk you through the fun process of creating your own line of custom apparel for your business.
