Want to make your next T-shirt fundraiser easier? Tired of collecting sizes for employee uniforms? Here’s the solution: a custom online store for your branded apparel.
We are now offering customers online stores to make ordering branded shirts, hoodies, or jackets so much simpler. It’s perfect for schools or nonprofits hosting a fundraiser. And it’s great for businesses who want to simplify the ordering process for employee gear.
How to create an online store for your brand
Connect with our team or your designated sales representative if you’re a current customer. Determine which apparel items you want to offer.
Side note: You can add promotional products like mugs and tumblers to your online store, but those have to be paid for in advance as we don’t print those in house. Don’t worry! Your sales rep can walk you through that process.
Then, work with your sales rep to upload your logo or designs. If you don’t have a design or need help reworking your designs, we can help. We have graphic designers in house who can make tweaks to existing designs or help you dream up something entirely new.
You can load your store with as many items and designs as you want. Our fee is $50 to set up the store with six products. Add more products for an additional fee.
All that’s left is sharing the store with your people! Leave the store open all the time or make it a limited time offer. For businesses, a year-round store often makes sense. Let employees reorder apparel as needed. You can add or change items seasonally.
For schools, nonprofits, or other fundraisers, a limited time store is a great option. Give people a short window to place their orders. It’s easier for your organization to track sales, and it gives buyers a sense of urgency to place their order.
You pick up orders in bulk at our Charleston location. Shipping is also available in case you’re serving remote team members or supporters in other areas.
We developed an online store for Orange Grove Charter School and the school’s robotics team. We also created a store for Wings for Kids, It has streamlined their ordering process and saves them a lot of time.
With an online store for branded apparel, you don’t have to:
- Guess at sizes
- Collect money
- Calculate taxes
- Chase people down for their orders or payments
- Store inventory
- Ship items
The benefits of working with a local printer on your online store
Setting up an online store cuts down on the hassle of taking orders, saving you and your team a ton of time. You’ll receive a login for your online store so you can track orders or fundraising efforts.
Plus, when you work with Charleston Cotton Exchange, you get personalized service and attention to ensure your orders turn out exactly the way you want.
One of the risks of using an online printer is that you’re responsible for uploading your own artwork files. Don’t assume that an online printer will make any adjustments to your files if they aren’t right. They will print your design exactly as you uploaded it.
When you work with our team, we’ll double check the files, work with you to make any adjustments, and send you a proof. We want to make sure your items turn out the way you expected. No surprises. No messed up orders.
As a bonus, avoid shipping fees and pick up your order at our office.
Lastly, you’re supporting another locally owned business. We’ve been outfitting Charleston businesses with branded apparel for 30 years.
With our step-by-step process and hands-on approach, you get the items you need to get noticed. With our new online store option, being brand brilliant just got even easier.
Ready to create your online store? Let’s do it! We’ll need two to four weeks to get everything set up.
