Sending a shirt will hold up one of your presses, we send out digital PDF's for approval.

We send a email to log on our site and approve the art, size, colors so on. They get a E signature code and thats it they aproved it. Unless they have no idea how to read or check emails then they have to come in a sign a print out!

I use the tee mockups from gomedia. It is usually a pretty good representation of what the final product will look like. But you have to make sure the final prodcut will look very similar to the design you sent them. Doing one offs is ridiculuos...especially for multiple colors only for them to come back & say they want changes...I had someone come back to me on a 4 color job who wanted changes AFTER i created the screens. i told him yeah I can make changes but it's gon cost $15-$20 per screen and he backed off.
