How Your Small Business Can Benefit from Custom Screen Printed T-Shirts
The best part about making T-shirts? They're typically affordable and proven to increase brand awareness. And that's not all! Custom screen printed t-shirts can be a great way to raise money for your company. Here's how it works: you print the design of your choice on t-shirts, then sell them in order to make some extra cash (without having to go through a third party like Kickstarter).
To get started, check out this blog post which will show you how http://www.screenprintingcentral.com/ can help you with more information on T-shirt printing as well as what materials are available and what size labels you should use for specific companies or products.
The first thing that you need to do is decide what type of t-shirt you want to print. The most popular ones are the Gildan 5000 and the Gildan Ultra Cotton shirts. The main difference between the two is their durability, so you'll want to consider how many times your custom t-shirts will be washed before choosing which one will fit your needs best.
Once you've decided on a shirt, the next step is picking out your design and printing technique. You'll have a few options here, since you can use iron-on labels or transfer paper if you're not up to using your own printer.
In terms of custom screen printed t-shirt design, you'll have a lot of options. You can choose to use your own logo or graphic, or you could go for something more visually appealing like a photo or logo that fits the theme of your company. Whatever you choose, remember that your t-shirts will be on display during your fundraisers and other events, so make sure it's something that represents your company well!
Another thing to keep in mind is how often you'll be holding fundraisers. If you plan on holding them every month, then it may be beneficial to purchase more durable Gildan 5000 shirts since they're made with more material than the Gildan Ultra Cotton shirts are.
If you have any other questions regarding custom screen printed t-shirts or T-shirt design, feel free to ask. There's a good chance that one of our printing experts has already answered it for you!

Title: How to Get Your Screen Printing Business to be Successful in a Tough Economy [ARTICLE START] Hi everyone! This time, I would like to talk about how your small business can benefit from custom screen printed T-shirts. For any screen printing business (whether it be t-shirts, hats, cups or basically anything you can print on), the most important thing is to focus on developing a strong brand. You need a name that will stand out so that people remember what you do and how they can find you. If they don't recognize your brand and they aren't sure whether they should come see you or not, then it is highly likely that your business will not succeed. So don't try to be too generic or focus on the products you offer. You need a strong brand that is memorable. Another factor of success for your business is the ability to sell. You need to be able to sell your products or services at an affordable price, but still make enough money to not only pay for everything you are selling (cost of goods, cost of shipping, etc.) but also make a profit. You can do this by using the right size and quality shirt, by offering competitive prices or by making sure to keep your costs low. Some people say that printing costs a lot. This may be true, but you need to consider why this is so. The cost of each shirt is more than just the cost of the screen printing ink and screen. We also have to consider how much it costs to print this shirt, how much it costs to ship it, how much you need sell each shirt for in order to make a profit (taking into account your overhead expenses like rent and utilities) and any extra expenses/costs related to setting up your screen printing business. For example, you may have to buy a large quantity of shirts or blanks at once. This means that you need money up front and then have to wait to get paid back. Some people don't want to deal with this kind of hassle, but it might be worth it in the long-run if you can afford enough blanks for your business and your printing expenses are a lot less than someone who doesn't order as many at once. On the topic of buying items in bulk, do not get too carried away! If you go overboard on ordering items and print too many shirts at once, then there's a good chance that no one will end up buying your products due to oversaturation in the market. I would say that the ideal number of shirts you should order at once is from 10-3500. If you order less than this, then it is more likely that people will not buy from you because there are too many options. This way, if there is a decline in the economy and your business does not seem to be doing well, you can still sell some items before things get really bad. You can get some quick cash when business picks back up again! So remember to keep an eye on your business and prepare for its ups and downs so that no matter what happens in the world, your business will remain successful. Thanks for reading! I hope that this was helpful. Bye for now! <3

Conclusion
About custom T-shirts:
A custom printed tee shirt is an excellent way to promote your business or some other cause. They're relatively cheap and a lot of people wear them. The great thing about these shirts is that they're made with so many different fabrics. Not just cotton, but there is the option of silk screening on bamboo and even organic cotton! I'm going to write a blog post soon regarding different fabrics for screen printing T-shirts. Anyways, the point I was getting at was that there are so many different types of T-shirts to choose from and this makes it possible for you or your business to get noticed in a straightforward manner . If you want something more subtle, then go for the solid colored shirts .
