For the past week I’ve been watching your videos. Very helpful information. I just started making t-shirts and your videos are helping so much. Thank you thank you!!

[@BigBrandoh]

[@ash.1254]

Thank God I found your page! Almost purchased the expensive htv by the foot🤦🏽‍♀️

[@BigBrandoh]

thanks for watchin. lots of affordable good quality vinyl out there.

[@bjeligarrow6366]

This episode made me laugh....since you described how my journey went when I started. I under cut everyone and slowly bump my price up slowly. Now I have a good consumer base and and now when they need a shirt or shirts on a short notice I explain the pro and cons on the price and the competitors. They usually (90%) stay with me on the price even if it’s more than the competitors(short notice). YES.....5 yard(15ft) roll or bigger is the way to go, in addition maximum your cut spacing so you don’t have a lot of waste. I try to save as much usable scrap as possible so when you get those orders that just need an additional color in a small place. I can either charge extra or just tell them....”I’ll just throw this in” to bring them back as a repeat customer.

[@BigBrandoh]

haha thats right!!! you got it dialed in.. thats exactly how i operate too! thanks for watchin

[@bjeligarrow6366]

.....still haven’t got that brand bite yet though.

Thanks for the gold! Perfect.

[@Lifeofsahm_Rita]

I just got my first custom order and I’m terrified lol. It’s a logo 4 shirts and 4 hoodies. I need to use transfer paper because I can’t cut the design. It has to be printed and cut. I charged $100.

[@Lifeofsahm_Rita]

Thinking about it maybe I should of charged more.

[@kennyvargas938]

Big B when you using HTV for different design, do you use laser printer or jet ink printer? For your design

[@BigBrandoh]

no i dont use any inkjet or laser printer transfers. i use HTV and plastisol transfers

[@ManMan-kc2zq]

I love watching your KZbin channel but what if I'm trying to start my own brand

[@BigBrandoh]

what about starting your own brand?

[@carlos_mann]

Whats better profit margins, starting out.... using heat transfer paper, for both light dark colored shirts, but just buying dark colored paper and a cricket, or silhouette cameo to print out and have the self weeding done for you. OR Buying that expert 24 & the vinyl? They both can produce great quality but the first 2 options allows for multi color prints without a white background, just not as big and the vinyl cutters only offer 1 color, but you have to weed it. (Yes I know you can technically do more than 1 color using vinyl cutters but I'm not trying to offer every option possible and looking for quick sales charging around $30 for texts or 1 - 3 colors for heat pressed paper with the self weeding from the top 2 options listed above AT MOST) & 1 color for the vinyl cutter. I know that works however I just never worked with the first 2 options yet

[@BigBrandoh]

i personally dont like the quality of print from your top two options. but thats just my own personal opinion. print quality to me is more important than convenience. i say this because i pride myself on gaining return customers. so i try to be fair and provide a quality product at a fair price to keep the business long term. so all my custom shirts are done with vinyl. anything more than 2 colors i outsource to a dtg printer.

[@carlos_mann]

@@BigBrandoh Gotcha! Thank you. Where can I find good prices for vinyl rolls?

[@BigBrandoh]

check the links in my description box!

[@carlos_mann]

@@BigBrandoh Oh didn't see those smh hahah Alright G!

[@brandypeay5350]

And this is why I STOPPED🛑 doing personalized orders. Customers are too picky and it takes too much time. I have my designs with text (quotes) that I can customized the color of the vinyl. Plus I can pre-weed and just stamp on when ready‼️

[@BigBrandoh]

haha thats right!!! i know that feeling

[@JaeMythMajorFlow]

Bet! Using this information to a tee 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

👊🏾 thats right!!! get that money!

[@CK-qe6cf]

How would you go abt shipping fees once the product is printed & packaged?

[@BigBrandoh]

charge the customer what it cost for you to ship it. i never eat the cost on shipping. the customer always pays for it

What about if your buying a shirt that is all ready printed. So I'm buying a 50 shirts that's printed so how much should I sell it.

[@Yendi233]

Can you do a video like this for screen printed transfers like Supacolor? Please 🙏

[@BigBrandoh]

what do you mean? pricing?

[@Yendi233]

Big Brandoh Yes. How to price them for profit. Shirt + transfers.

[@BigBrandoh]

you just answered your own question hahaha shirt+transfer hahahaaaa thats your material cost. as long as you price more than your cost you'll profit

[@qeva_]

[@ash.1254]

Thoughts on screen printing vs htv? I'm interested in started screen printing. Thank you

[@BigBrandoh]

both are good but both have 2 different needs. if you have the space to screen print, go for it. area to print, wash out screens, area to burn screens and store them, pressure washer to knock out the emulsion, conceyor belt dryer to cure the ink and some where to store inks.htv requires a cutter and a heat press.

[@cryavi2005]

Hello. New to T shirt making. I was wondering, I use a printer to print out my pictures to iron on shirt, do I or should I charge for the ink I use to print out picture and if I should, how do I price it? Thank you

[@BigBrandoh]

yes you should. break down how much you pay for the ink, figure out how many prints you can get off of a new cartridge, how much you pay for paper. all that should be charged to the customer

[@cryavi2005]

@@BigBrandoh sounds like a good idea.. thank you so much.

[@youngla1475]

fuckkkk yeah this was very helpful !! my dumb a$$ ran out of vynl and i went to the nearest store to get some and shit was 33 for 5 foot. i know one website where u can but the 5 yards for 33 !! i knew this before buying the 5 ft roll at the store but i just needed a roll to finish the project

[@heathermack3983]

Do you got any old silk screen machines you want to give a way to a good home 😉 lol or better yet if you dont got anyone old ones laying around whats the best most inexpensive silk screen machine would you recommend?

[@BigBrandoh]

i dont have any screen print equipment. you can find used stuff on craigslist or offerup. but look into dryers. thats what matters. conveyor belt dryers and flash dryers. curing the ink properly is the most important part

[@candacegarcia331]

Hello, I just received your sample pack, thank you. Where do you order your Alstyle 1701 shirts?

@@BigBrandoh I don't but my business partner does... Is that necessary when ordering direct from supplier?

[@BigBrandoh]

yes it is. your business partner can open an sccount and order direct. most times they'll send you to the closest distro warehouse. not sure where your located but they have warehouses all over

[@kinggreenorganics7658]

My lady normally does the 3 part breakdown. She figures what the cost to make the item then she times it hy 3. 1 part for cost 1 part for the business I part for her labor. So if it cost $6 to make a shirt she charges $18. Normally. Now doing 50 shirts with transfers she prices different

[@BigBrandoh]

thats right!!! shes gettin that money!

I tell them they get two changes on design after that it's 10 bucks per change, even it's a number. Usually they say it looks good.

[@jswim6465]

If i draw a picture of lets say Friday the movie. Could i put that on my shirts to sell?

[@BigBrandoh]

i cant give you any kind of legal advice because im not a lawyer. legally, all i can say is "you have to operate at your own risk" if you want better clarification on something like that you would have to ask a trademark attorney.
