Promoting Your Business With Swag

Any festivals, fairs, or business expos you attend, you're sure to end up with a bag of promtional products (AKA swag). Promotional products is a huge industry. Why is the industry thriving? Because logoed items like hats, T-shirts and bags are traveling advertisements that leave a lasting impression, making them crucial for building brand awareness. Every time you use a logoed canvas bag, can koozie, bottle opener, etc. You are reminded of that company's product.
Loyal customers love to show their support for their favorite brands buy buying swag. Some businesses might not have the man power, money, or time to sell their logoed products online. Well now B.L. Tees has a solution in our B2B program. We now can sell, print, and ship logoed apparel online without any effort from the brand's team. 
How it works is you contact a B2B rep and they'll walk you through the set up process. We set up a page dedicated to the brand on our multi vendor website. We have set prices for each apparel type and we mark up the retail price as much as you'd like. We process the fees and send you your cut at the end of the month. Companies have access to web analytics including traffic and sales volume.

Combine Artwork & Text in Our Online Shirt Designer

We have repeat customers design custom printed dri fit shirts for their annual charity event, family vacation, or company trip every year.

They come back because we have a great tool for them to create something new unique every year. They also can avoid back and forth emails to an artist. I deal with artists all day so I know there is no way to speed up the creative process.

In our online design lab you can upload your own artwork and add text. Choose from our huge selection of font styles where you can change the color, add an outline or make a glowing effect.  Make texts arch above the artwork or even make it wavy.

We have made a short video to give you some ideas to get you going.

Sizing Your Artwork for Custom Printed Shirts

What Size Should My Artwork Be?


Customers are always asking of what size their artwork should be. You don't need to read the print from across the street but you don't want to have to strain your eyes to read it either. Even though this is a matter of preference, there are some common measurements that you might be helpful in making your decision.
When choosing a left or right chest area, the most common size is between 3.5" to 4" across. If your artwork is taller then most customers stay within the 4" to 4.5" range.
If your artwork will be a full chest print, 12" is a popular size.
Back prints will usually be on the larger side, 12" to 13" across but shouldn't be larger that 15" in height.
Sleeve prints will usually be around 12"to 14" in height if you are printing text, artwork like a flag will be approx. 3"to 4" across.
Because artworks will be all shapes and sizes, these measurements are just guidelines and aren't written in stone. Use our online design tool to see what size would be to your liking, or we can mock up a virtual sample.
Our staff of graphic artists will be able to answer any questions you might have and help with any design issues you might have.
