Request a Sample Print

• Even if it costs extra, this is your insurance.
• No sample = no bulk order.

Demand to see the quality

• Provide mockups, Pantone codes, and print size details.
• Visuals reduce excuses and “misunderstandings.”

3. Be Specific with Fabrics

• Thin tees ruin good prints.
• Confirm GSM and blend (e.g., 180 GSM, 100% cotton).

4. Ask for Process Details

• Is it plastisol, water-based, or discharge ink?
• You deserve to know what you’re paying for.

5. Set Clear Approval Steps

• Digital mockup → Physical sample → Final approval.
• Lock this process before production.

6. Use Pressure Smartly

• Let them know you’ll review publicly (Instagram, Google).
• Quality rises when reputation’s on the line.

7. Build the Right Relationship

• Respect + clarity = better results over time.
• Be firm, not aggressive.
