SUCCESS STORIES IN THEIR OWN WORDS

Heather Yes, they do. People designed with the, with the, no, knowing that there've been down, it's going to be one as a headband. If they are trying to do something, that's not going to work like that. We will advise them and say, "Hey, listen, if you want your logo, if you have your tech, or if you want your text to be visual, you know, visual, when you're wearing it as a headband, we're going to suggest no more than seven inches wide. No more than two inches tall." And so that way, when it's folded as a headband everything is going to be seen. We also do a lot of suggestions. So we have a lot of doggy bandanas coming through as well. People design doggie bandanas and we can print wonderful designs on these triangles. And there's definitely a group of those who designed the whole bandana. And then there's definitely those who just want to have a small logo and we will advise them to, "Hey, if you want your logo to be seen, if you want your art to be visual, when it's tied around the neck of a doggie, make sure it's no more than seven inches from the corner. You want your logo to be seen when it's tied and not to get wrapped up in the creases." So you have both parties that are designing with the exact know how they want it to look on a video in it. And then you have the others who have a design and we help them tweak it. Or we advise them, we give them the information of what the outcome will be. Will be and how it can be used if they stick with their current design. And then you have those that just come with the logo, come with the phrase and we advise them on what's going to work best because we get information and we advise them on what's the best final look for the use that you're going to be using for the banana. Marshall That's fantastic. I completely forgot about the dog bandana. Yeah. Yeah. So, Holly, uh, just to close up here, what are some top tips? That's going to make that next bandana order a success. So I want somebody that's listening right now, walk them through what they need to be thinking about so that, you know, I can go in many different directions, but I'm going to kind of maybe, uh, uncover some things that people don't realize that they can do with bandanas. Holly And that's. That's we, we often advise in these directions or we also just drop the idea and see who takes it. So, number one, I would definitely say packaging. Um, there's belly bands, there's folding there's stuffing envelopes. There are all kinds of things you can do with the packaging that can, especially in this. Uh, in 2020, 20, 21, where they're being retailed, um, it can add value to a customer and how they're receiving it. Um, also with packaging, for like giveaway items. I mean, we've done it. I think we did an order with belly bands for like 5,000 bandanas where they were, they were wrapped with a belly band in order to be able to toss into the crowds. Marshall Heather, why do you think people are intimidated by designing or printing on bandanas? Because it's just this thing, it's a square it's whatever. Why do you think people are so scared of that or where they won't, they won't really get into it until they start doing it. What's going on with that? Heather So that's just a demonstration of how packaging can be added to bandanas, to be used in whatever way you want to use it. There's also, this is a big tip. You can switch the bandana color and keep the print the same. And that will give you a nice variety. For example, you can do 10 different colors with all the same imprint, and now it looks like you have a lot more options for everybody. You've got the hot pink by the light blue. You've got the black and that's a huge tip that people can utilize or do half and half. They use half black with white print or half white with black print, and then change the ink color. You know you wanna really play with and give more variety. You can change that ink color. To give that variety. Also when we're talking about pet bandanas, if you design your full square bandana in a certain way, we can actually, and people in the industry will understand what this means,
