Hey everyone this is Michael with Nova Disc. I'm going to read you a blog that I wrote on novadisc.blogspot.com regarding T Shirt Printing and pricing for T Shirt printing. So hope you enjoy this--

So I'd like to focus on custom t shirt pricing, and with the advent of the internet, competition in the printing industry became fierce. Companies began popping up that didn't exist before. Some weren't even companies, but individuals with no experience looking to make a quick buck.

Fly by night companies also disappear overnight.
It's quite common in this industry to see companies come and go. Many of them are starting up and don't have the experience to have the foresight to anticipate and tackle a possible problem before it even occurs.

Instead they are scrambling around "putting out fires", covering up their errors... Some don't have an office number listed on their website, and some don't even have an office.

No wonder their prices are so low...We are contacted by clients all the time, telling us horror stories about a cheap printing company they found online, and the prices sounded too good to be true. Guess what? The client paid much more in stress than in dollars.

There are printers in the industry that offer a low price for an even lower quality product. Printing looks washed-out, or look like second generation copies.

The old saying goes...If the price sounds too good to be true, it is.

There are some fixed costs involved in printing...namely materials such as garments, paper, adhesives, inks, screens, plates and other considerations. Of course there is also overhead costs in running a printing company, but that aside from that, you can only make your prices so low before you end up losing money on a deal. Sometimes as a printer, if you want to land a good client you might take a small loss or break even just to get them to do business with you, but if if a price sounds fishy, look into it carefully.

To me, I like doing a great job that my clients will be happy with. It makes me feel like I am doing something worthwhile and earning my money for doing a good job. But not everyone thinks the way I do. Some printers just want to do a money grab and run. I'm not saying all printers are like this. But those that burn people are burning themselves with bad word of mouth.

Check the website of the company you are considering doing business with and find out all you can about the company. Don't rush into an order just because you are in a hurry. People get burned that way. Make sure that the company has a physical address listed. Also that they have samples that you can look at, and that they have testimonials on their website from real people.

Obviously, your product is important to you, so make sure you put it in the hands of someone who has the experience to make the process stress-free.

This is Michael with Nova Disc. Hope this has helped and thanks for listening.
