Basic into Fashion

I recently had the opportunity to do a tee-shirt design for a client that was going on a winter family vacation. They had come up with a basic design. But, wanted me to come up with something a little more fashion forward, yet stay within a specific budget of about $10 per shirt. Basically that means a 1 color design. Below is what they sent to me.


Pretty basic right.. here is the kicker. That design imprinted would have cost the same amount as this design that we ended up doing. Tell me which would you rather have?

We ended up printing up 15 Long Sleeve Tee-shirts at $9.66 each plus a set up of $15.00. So, each shirt ended up being $10.66 each. Not to shabby, if I don't say so myself. Plus, when they go to the slopes they will look like a snowboarding team. Have fun Dr. Rohm!!

"Speedy Delivery"

Wow... it isn't very often that I have the same type of request with in a couple of days... But, I guess that is how things sometimes happen...

You see... last Thursday I received a call at 4pm From Randal Nelsen (Marketing Genius) of Triumph Ventures. He had received a call from Cheryl (Boise Urban Liaison Magazine) for some tee-shirts for one of her clients (VIP "Viral Intermedia Production.... Have I lost you yet?).... anyway; He told her that Signature Promotions was his 'go to' company for all things promotional. So, Randal called me and I called Cheryl.... and left a message. She promptly called back and told me that she had a client that needed some Tee-Shirts for later that night... Did I mention that I received the 1st call at 4pm....

Well, I like to be a miracle worker and do what others can't... So.... we did!! I delivered the shirts to Cheryl at 6:30pm (just 2-1/2 hours after receiving the first call). I did it in such a hurry that I forgot to take some pictures to post... But, here is the Client approval sheet that I sent to Cheryl... Oh, I think I forgot to mention that they wanted Black shirts. From what I've been told no one carries black shirts in stock (well, I do). ;-)

I started off by saying that I had two similar requests with in days..... request #2 happened today/tonight. I was just finishing up my BNI (Business Networking International) Meeting when I received a call from KC Littlewood of "KV Hardwood" Floors. "KC" is working on a remodel of a downtown Boise hotel and was informed that they needed to be 'in uniform'. So, He called me and guess what .... We printed shirts for him... first call was at about 3pm... I got back to the office at about 4pm and picked up his business card for his logo... Seems his PC has recently crashed and he didn't have a digital version of his logo... So, I turned this:

Into This (Front):

And This (Back):Not to shabby for a few hours turn around time including recreating the logo and imprinting it on the shirts. But, we love to do the impossible. Give us a call next time you need "Speedy Delivery" or a Miricle ... Maybe we can help!
