Can I get silk screening, custom tags and fulfillment in one place?
I'm a graphic designer and artist who would finally like to make a t-shirt line of her own. I've printed tees on zazzle and cafe press over the years with "so so" results. But, I'd like to print higher-quality screened tees in larger numbers now. So, I'm wondering if there are "start to finish" companies that provide silk screening, sewing in of custom tags, and handle distribution of incoming orders? I would like to set up my own e-commerce site and then supply the company with a feed of all new orders. Any hints or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Re: Can I get silk screening, custom tags and fulfillment in one place?
hey Jim ... welcome to T-shirt Forums ...
some questions:
how many shirts are you planning to produce per design?
What type of body/fabric, and what type of ink?
are you seeking DTG or screenprinting or some type of heat transfer?
and how are you going to bring your site traffic?
what geographic region are you in?
There are a lot of shops here in Southern California who could help
with everything but the fulfillment.

I'd ideally like to do high quality screen printing. I'm not positive about shirt #s yet, but they could get quite high because I'll be selling them for an international TV series airing on Nat Geo International channel in the Fall. TV viewers will be in the millions, but I'm not sure how that will translate to web site viewers yet. I'm located in San Francisco, but am open to working with printers elsewhere. The key is that i'm looking for printing and fulfilmment (I'm not going to try to store and ship the t-shirts myself). I'm open to using 2 different companies, but am trying to figure out how all this works.
thanks! jen

Thanks - printmojo.com does appear to be a good option. However, I want to maintain my site brand throughout the entire check-out process. This does not seem to be possible on PrintMojo... all the store examples i've seen use "Print Mojo" branded screens for the final phase of shopping cart check-out.

You can have a fully branded checkout with PrintMojo if you use your own shopping cart and ecommerce setup. You just send the final order details to PrintMojo for fulfillment.

Cool, thanks for the tip. I checked out printmojo some more and one bummer is that they won't show you prices until you sign up. That's kind of odd. Do you think that their prices for inventory and printing are competitive?

It doesn't cost anything to sign up It's just like many wholesale vendors that require you to sign up before they show the wholesale pricing.
This is to protect the wholesale printing pricing from potential retail customers.
It doesn't take much to signup to see the pricing. You don't have to commit to anything or pay for anything.
