T Shirts Have Come So Far

 


Remember when you had only 1 choice of a T-Shirt and it was heavy feeling?  Stiff?  And back in the day, we loved them.  Well, technology has taken us so far in the 100% cotton T-Shirt realm.

And definitely not soft....Today we here are Ink It Up only sell our favorites in the Ring Spun type T-shirt.  We like them to feel soft, yummy, lightweight, and look great when worn.

The other day I had my grandson over and he needed a shirt...he says oh I like that color, it was a Bella Unisex Olive Green.  He starts to put it on and out come the words...oh this is so soft.  (And this is from a teenager!)  So when a teenager notices just how wonderful a good ole T-Shirt feels, you know that your client is going to notice too.

We carry Graphic Tees, custom screenprinted Tees (and every kind of apparel known to man, HaHa) and love to print them in multiple colors in the image and in multiple places.  

Here are some of the benefits of ringspun cotton shirts--

  • Ring spun cotton feels soft and smooth due to its refined production process.
  • Its construction creates a stronger, tighter fabric weave that still feels lightweight and breathable.
  • Because of the tighter knit, ring spun fabric is more durable than standard cotton and tends to last longer.

Those are some great reasons to only provide ring spun T-Shirts!

So with that said, Let's go do some printing:)

Marketing in the New World


How do you market when you are limited in being in person for your networking?

Do you just sit on Zoom and chit chat?   My good referral buddy, Maile Collmer, has some sage advice where she recommends that you do "How are you? calls."  Doesn't have to have anything to do with business, but all about the person on the other end of the telephone.  It's ALL about them...and guess what?

It gets the energy going, reminds them of you, your business, and BUILDS a sturdy relationship!

Then there is the old-fashioned notecard, or postcard, or a lumpy mail gift that comes in the good ole' USPS--now how many are doing this?  Let's be the one that stands out.

And when you start thinking of a lumpy mail campaign...now we are talking about what we can do to help you achieve a great open rate on that envelope with a magnet, pen, tin of mints, emery board, eyeglass cloth, chocolate bar, small notebook, and so much more.  Just ask us & we can brainstorm up a great idea!

So what are your goals for 2022?  And how can you add some How are you calls & traditional lumpy mail campaigns to build your revenue stream?

Let's team up and get ourselves back to 2019 revenue:)  Go Team!!
