TIP #4
DESIGN WITH BUDGET IN MIND
There are a lot of ways to save money through design. Here are some pro tips so you don’t design yourself into an expensive corner. PRINT ON LIGHT SHIRTS It costs less to print on light coloured t-shirts than on dark coloured t-shirts. We have to use more ink and screens to get graphics on darker fabrics which adds to the cost. PRINT FEWER COLOURS AND LOCATIONS As a general rule our products all include the cost of a one location and one colour print. Adding colours and locations will incur additional run charges and set up charges. In some cases, we are printing in CMYK or full colour – so go crazy with your design (but ask first). When in doubt, keep it simple.
