Hi I want to expand my online screenprint/embroidery business into a retail store.

Right now our customers are all businesses that provide there own logos to imprint on apparel.

However we want to open a retail store where we can offer one off tshirts to people coming in off the streets.

Is there some where I can purchase tshirt designs, witty sayings all ready to print etc. so that I can provide a catalouge to my customers to choose from.

I see alot of tshirtshops have a whole wall of tshirt designs that customers can just pick and choose from.


Thanks,

Thanks,

Most of the huge selections you see are made by heat transfer. My philosophy is always, always, always screen print and try to get the best quality out of what you're doing. I sell some pretty common design variations, but tweak it from the other guys that repeat the same exact image ad infinitum on heat transfer. There's some pages that have literally 2000 different shirts you can choose from. In my mind, too much repetition equates to lack of interest... you can still sell a lot, but there's no pride. Streamline as much as possible, only do the ones you really like. It's mass produced piss beer vs handcrafted microbrew. Quality wins every time in my book.

cheers,

Yes thats a good point more is not nessacarliy better.

However I am not a graphic designer so I do need to purchase artwork and funny sayings that I can transfer onto the shirts.

Do you know here I can find this?
