As “Silly Season” approaches, brands just like yours will fall into one of three categories:

1. Those who already have their Summertime custom apparel sorted, and a plan in place for Christmas orders…
   
2. Those who are at risk of putting this season’s designs in the “too hard basket” until 2020…
   
3. Those who have already given up!

Well, we’re here to remind you that right now it’s NOT TOO LATE!
(we’re talking to YOU, category number 3!)

Check out these 3 TIPS on how to MAXIMISE your apparel sales this holiday season.

1 – BE PREPARED

A goal without a plan is just a wish, but you don’t need to go it alone!  

We can help simplify what you want to achieve and break it down into EASY manageable steps, with deadlines and keep everything on track for you.

This will also ensure you avoid paying any express fees and you get your apparel in plenty of time, meaning your apparel as a whole is a lot more profitable. 

Whether you have 1 design or multiple to get ready before next year, it is not too late! We still have time to get everything you need underway.

Let’s get your design ideas off your to do list for 2019…and under some Christmas trees!

2 – YOUR APPAREL IS A GIFT…A CHRISTMAS GIFT!

Are your customers keeping you in mind for their Christmas shopping?  

According to Commsec, Aussie families are set to spend a whopping $11 BILLION (with a B) on Christmas gifts this year.

Through effective communication online (especially on social media), you can stay at the top of your customers’ minds and help them to choose your brand as an awesome Aussie gift, hand screenprinted right here in Currumbin, Gold Coast.

Highlight the local components of your brand to your customers, and give them deadlines to work towards for guaranteed delivery in time to land under the Christmas tree.

How would you like to funnel some of that $11B away from the giant conglomerates and into your pocket instead?

3 – START FRESH IN 2020…Cleanse yourself of old stock

If you’re already sitting on some stock, use the holiday season to your advantage and create some packages which will entice multiple item sales.

You can give your old stock that “exclusive” appeal by telling the world that you’re retiring this design forever – and by packaging it up at a multi-purchase price point, your customers will be stoked to get awesome value for money. 

Clearing out old stock will allow you to start the new decade with some fresh design ideas in 2020!

What if you’re not selling your t-shirts?

Perhaps your apparel is for your team rather than retailing?

No matter your industry, there’s always an element of ‘silly season’, so it’s highly likely that over the next few months, your crew will be standing in front of more potential new clients than any other time of year.

Getting your team in some fresh new custom apparel, looking neat & professional in front of your customers is key to making a lasting first impression.
 
Don’t let your brand be misrepresented in front of potential clients just because ordering new uniforms never made it off the ‘to do list’…
