100% true!
Our work is always quality work, i'm always giving freeby garments printed away in all orders, so i tend to hook customers like with with return orders.
Im just thinking of how i should go about getting my name out faster

Try Google Adwords.

Online store dosn't really do much, quality and rates are always key when it comes to keeping customers, as far as customer service.
I'm talking about more advertising.

I'm gonna look into google adwords, have you used it before?

Flyers are awesome!
I get mine off Vista Print and they always come out looking flawless!
The only thing is.. the town my shop is in is very strict about promotion :[
First i flyered in mailboxes... i know i know its against the law to "go though peoples mail"

i got a warning on that already..
then i tried sliding fliers through store front doors.. got in trouble for that as well..

in thinking i should print up some screen printed sample packs, have them packaged right; and have them mailed to companys?
