just heard of a shirt printer I know looking for a job in the slow colder seasons right when i am ready to purchase screen printing equipment. does it get slower for u guys in the colder seasons?

Depends on your customer base.

We do quite a bit of work for youth sport leagues and most of those run Spring to Fall.

We also have a fair number of corporate customers that are steady all year around.

I stay busy in the winter, and work my a$$ off in the spring and early summer. This is driven by the tourist business in my town. So, you basically need to understand your market in order to answer the question in a meaningful way. Spend some time figuring that out before you spend a ton of money on equipment.

Thanks guys. Anybody else feel free to reply. Do you experience slow seasons.

We slow down, but still have jobs coming in until December. January and Feb. are the slowest. We start picking up when it warms up. This year it was very cold in march so we didn't get as much. Since we print Transfers too, that kept us going.

I guess it all depends on where you are located, the market you are reaching and weather you are printing for a clothing brand or something like churches and schools.

It's market and vertical based. Schools will slow down in January and February but other segments are just getting their budget money
