Finding a local screen printer to print your shirts is easy, but choosing the right one for the quality, reliability, consistency, attention to detail, and technology is crucial. Here's why these factors matter and how GetBold delivers:
1. Quality: Customer Service and Printing
- Customer Service: Look for a screen printer with responsive and knowledgeable representatives. You'll likely have questions throughout the process, and a smooth communication experience is essential.
- Print Quality: Screen printing involves multiple steps. Artwork adjustments, colour separations, screen burning, and registration all impact the final product. GetBold uses a detailed process to ensure high-quality, long-lasting prints.
2. Reliability: Meeting Deadlines and Expectations
- On-Time Delivery: Reliable screen printers prioritize meeting deadlines. Whether you have a strict deadline or need a specific quantity, a dependable printer ensures your order arrives on time and is complete.
- Accurate Orders: Get the exact number of shirts you ordered. Misprints or missing shirts can disrupt your plans. GetBold uses a meticulous approach to guarantee precise fulfillment.
- Colour Accuracy: Matching specific colours (like Pantone colours) is essential for brand consistency. GetBold delivers accurate colour reproduction for a perfect brand representation on your shirts.
3. Consistency: Maintaining Quality Across Reorders
- Consistent Quality: If you plan to reorder the same design, consistent quality is paramount. Inconsistent appearance across batches can damage your brand image.
- Order Tracking: GetBold maintains a detailed database of customer graphics and order specifications. This ensures consistent quality for reorders, no matter the size.
4. Attention to Detail: Taking Pride in the Craft
- Artwork Adjustments: Minor adjustments to your artwork may be necessary to optimize the printing process and final product. GetBold's experienced team makes these adjustments to ensure a crisp, beautiful print.
- Quality Garments: GetBold uses a trained eye to inspect blank garments for imperfections before printing. This ensures you receive a perfect final product.
5. Technology and Equipment: Investing in the Latest
- Modern Equipment: Advanced presses, digital platforms, and a well-functioning website streamline the screen printing process and minimize errors.
- Bulk Order Capacity: GetBold utilizes top-of-the-line equipment to handle large orders efficiently. Manual presses are simply not suitable for high-volume printing.
- Expertise in Design Software: Our team is proficient in all design programs used in screen printing, ensuring a smooth and efficient online ordering process.
