When I started this website 980 posts ago, it was to share personal experiences and educational information on how heat printing can help your garment printing business be more successful. We understand that there are many ways to print a t-shirt and I wanted to make sure that as many people as possible knew about the options available to either add services to your existing business or start up a new business. Along the way, I’ve also shared stories about my family, my hobbies and my business philosophies and industry predictions, which have hopefully helped you to get to know me better. And you’ve shared your stories with me. I always appreciate your feedback and your comments. I read every one of them and try to respond as soon as possible. If you’re reading this, you may be one of the many people who run successful full-time businesses built entirely around heat-applied graphics. If you’re still on the fence about heat printing, here are some things I would like you to consider:
