  4. Rant Customer Rant

    IMO I would do everything possible to stay away from these companies. Sure you can make $$$$$$, but at what expense? I've been in the printing business since 76'. I get great pleasure in firing or bypassing these firms. Some have too many chiefs, not enough good help. In the long run they...
  5. Dtf printer to make stickers on clear?

    I do DTF inhouse, but haven't delved into UV DTF other than outsourcing. Results were excellent. If you are asking how well the white inks run it requires handling on any process of printing.
  6. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    Customers just don't understand that we are manufacturers. We do not take something on a shelve and hand it to them. They minimize our services and cry boo hoo to others that we did them wrong. Unfortunately, a mind is a terrible thing to waste!

  10. Your Physical Health

    In October I decided to do private training. I do merch for several gyms. I go 3 times a week for an hour a session. And look forward to getting out of the gym. It's rough at 62. But in no time, I went from a 38 waist to 36. And because of the stretching program I can tie my laces without...
  11. Raster and Vector Image Customer Rant

    There is no point to educate clients these days. I also do t-shirts. I get canva files and get the client tells me "It looks great" On their cell phones. I tell them. Fortunately, I offer retouching services for a fee. But I already paid canva. SMH Education process has gone to &hit!

  15. What's the worst file you've been given to print?

    Not for nothing. We would not print this at all. It's your reputation at stake. I've turned down plenty of orders because of terrible files. Do you want someone to ask them where they got it printed? I must certainly don't. DON'T PRINT!
  16. What's the worst file you've been given to print?

    Too many over the years...But I love it when you appeal to those clients for better artwork, and they respond with. The other printer never had these problems. Makes you wonder, why they are not using these other printers... Sign Up!
  17. How to talk to unhappy employee’s.

    We had an employee that was producing but not happy. I took him out for a drink, and it turned out to be love. : ) His relationship was souring and didn't seem to handle it well. Ever since he is much better at work and feels free to speak about it.
  18. Solution to chargeback on credit card

    You should never accept cards over the phone. EVER! Unless it's a client you know well. Chargebacks area a lot easier if they are done over the phone. You have no prevention of protection. JMHO
  19. Solution to chargeback on credit card

    I feel I should bring another issue to charge backs we have stopped long time ago. DO NOT take cards from a husband using wives card or vise versa. ID everyone to match. If it is not the same person with card, give back and ask for cash.
