For me, it's how many pieces? 6 - 12? If they'll pay...

Is this not an odd job for you all to be doing Tpep,  I didn't think you all did smaller custom jobs like this,  looks very nice by the way, now I know twill will discharge good info

I don't know much about the company that Tony is apart of but considering he talks a lot about resort merch I would be willing to bet they print a ton of 48 pcs-72 pcs jobs w/ name drops and such..... We are doing a lot of resort stuff and minimums are 24 pcs fyi so don't be surprised if Tony's shop does a bunch of small run stuff too..... There's lots of "big" shops out there that do an enormous amount of 24-144 pcs runs, at least from what I've seen.

Exactly... any time I see these posts about 'should I print less than X pcs' I always cringe.

Case in point, our 35k hoodie order came from a customer that walked in and wanted qty 20  5 color prints... nobody else in the area would touch it, we charged appropriately, and he was happy.  He came back a few weeks later to start talking to us about the hoodies.

If our current growth continues through the winter, I'm going to have to order another auto and expand less than 6 months into our new space.  Brandt: you were right :)

Won't can't get into the specifics but we are many different things to many different people. Several divisions catering to different business needs which include but are not limited to Resort. And with one exception which definitely cannot be named we do not contract print. The model here is product vs service.

Where do you guys have time to find this chit LOL

Tpep I was kinda thinking you cats only handle large accounts but your right don't leave any money on the table that you can put in your pocket, we changed our rules this pass year we will print any amount that your willing to pay for.

As said above we have different divisions. With Resort you have to play the minimum game but we have many tricks under our sleeves to gain more colors with less screens.
We don't play the 8 color Ron Jons/Johnsons Board Wax/ Crazy Shirts game. Its saturated anyway.
