Custom Spiritwear Program, The
Details
People have a basic need to
belong and have a sense that they are an accepted part of something. A custom
spiritwear program does just that. It gives plenty of clothing choices and
embroidery styles to allow people to express themselves as individuals,
while
building a sense of community through a selection of embroidered designs you
approve. This allows you to control the professional quality and image you want
portrayed for your school, while letting people have freedom of choice.
How does it work?
In a custom spiritwear program, we would start by choosing the items you want to offer by meeting with you with a display of actual clothing samples and a printed catalog. You can offer as many or as few items as you want. But remember, you want to give people a good range of individualized choices. We will make recommendations on successful items.
Next we would choose the embroidery designs. We can use your school’s current logos and artwork, or we can design fresh and innovative designs for you (either option is done at no charge to you). We would bring to you actual sewn-out samples of the designs for your approval. Again, you can offer as many or as few choices as you want.
When the items and designs are finalized, we setup a date range for the campaign to run, and we are ready.
What does Georgia Stitching do, and how involved will I be?
We will bring in a complete display including clothing rack with the live un-embroidered clothing samples (so people can try them on) carded with descriptions/color/size choices, table(s), display materials and signs, actual sewn-out samples of embroidery choices, and a order form customized for your school and program. All this will be delivered and setup for you prior to the campaign kickoff, and picked at the end of the campaign.
In this program, you will be responsible for:
-
Copying the master order form and making forms available to your staff/customers
-
Promoting the spiritwear campaign (How?)
-
Answering any questions regarding the items available
-
Verifying, checking, and collecting order forms and collecting payment
-
Since most school systems require spiritwear programs to be handled as fundraisers, the monies collected are deposited by the school, we invoice your for the total of all orders, and the school makes payment, less the percentage earned by the school.
-
Distribute the orders to the end customers.
-
Work directly between the end customers and Georgia Stitching to resolve an order issues. See our Returns policy here.
How much money will my school make?
The custom spiritwear program’s primary purpose is to promote your school and build a sense of community. The school retains 10% of total sales making this program the mid-level income earner for the school. Ultimately how much you make depends of the timing of the campaign and how well you promote the campaign. The more you sell, the more you make.
