Screen Machine T Shirt Blog

It’s nice to be printing more shirts this week.
Finally some of the doom and gloom seems to be lifting and our enquiry and order rate is approaching normal for this time of year. We hope that some confidence is finally coming back, after all you need to promote yourselves more and more these days. Word of mouth used to increase turnover but nowadays we are more dependent on the internet for sales.
It is difficult to spend money when turnover has dropped and enquiries are lower than normal, but you have to fight back and the brave will reap rewards.
So, buy those shirts promoting your company name you know it makes sense!

Now is the time to buy your printed t shirts!

The industry is traditionally at it’s quietest this time of the year.

Especially on the larger orders, we are all willing to negotiate on price. During summer we are inundated with work, but this time of the year is slow most years add in the equation of an economic downturn and I hate to admit it - it’s a buyer’s market.

So, if you are thinking of buying t shirts for the spring or summer buy them now!

If I had taken the advise of all the news programmes I would have been at home with my feet up drinking lots of cups of tea, however I decided to ignore the ’severe weather warnings’ and come to work, so I’m sat here with my feet up drinking tea, waiting for orders!

Thanks to our local council (Leeds City Council) the roads had been gritted well and all the main routes were clear, add to that the fact that the news put off many peoples’ journeys and monday morning rush hour was no more!

Yes, the press and media are at it again - we’re doomed: a recession, a little bit of snow!!!

I think we desperately need some positive thinking  : )

Anyone ringing today (before I get snowed in), can have an extra 10% off any of the offers on our screen printed t shirts - now that’s positive!
