When working in CorelDRAW with a customer to create a job it is important not only to talk about artwork, but to also determine the process on how you will create the final product. For example, if the customer wants to have many colors in the design, a process such as cad cut media like may not be the choice for it but transfers or digital print and cut may be. To make the design work for the job, you will need to keep in mind what process will be used in order to create the proper artwork.
In this webinar Steven Jackson from Imprintables Warehouse goes over some of the different considerations for design and how to use many of the different tools in CorelDRAW to create the proper artwork for the job. See how to look over customer provided graphics to determine if they are sufficient and how to add text and design elements to create the final design for your customer. Giving the customer options with different medias and customization is covered as well.

Personal Signature Style with Custom Transfers

You want to offer your customer a truly customized design for their shirts such as a design with their group name, team name, player name etc. These are all great way to personalize a shirt but there’s one thing that is even more personal than those. A signature. Everyone’s signature is different, as different as their fingerprint. So how do you get a team or school class’ signatures on their shirts other than having each person sign everyone’s shirt in the group? Enter Signature Custom Transfers. Did you know you can have everyone in your customer’s group sign one template and get custom transfers made from that? Even better, it’s really easy to do.

Transfer Express offers Signature Layout Templates that are ready to be customized with the school class, sports team, or any other group wanting something truly personal. How does this work?

1. Choose and customize a layout from the Easy Prints® Signature Layouts.

2. Transfer Express will send you the template.

3. Have each person sign the template with a medium felt-tip pen.

4. Mail the template back to Transfer Express and place your custom screen printed transfer order.

5. Once you receive the transfers, heat press them onto the shirts.

6. Deliver to your customers!

We added a video below to show you the processes.

 

 

Webinar Wrap Up: Work It! Selling to More than Schools & Teams

From restaurants, to manufacturers, to the local fire and police departments, everyone needs custom printed apparel. We learned how to print uniforms and aprons for restaurants. We learned how to use reflective transfers for company’s safety needs. Some small businesses do not have art and we learned how to use an online designer to create custom ideas which will increase sales. Some of these businesses are landscapers, plumbers, carpenters, and auto repair. Outfitting these companies give them a more professional look.
All companies participate in events, too. Do they need shirts for a company picnic? Do they sponsor a work sports team? Do they have a team in the local fundraising walk and want identity? These are just a few of the many profitable opportunities.
For corporate logo work, we learned how to send artwork and the different print methods available. From single color to full color, it is easy to meet the needs of any potential customer.
