Over the next few blog entries we will discuss different ways to print on products and wearables, but I thought I would give my readers a brief guide to the options out there and a few pros and cons of each to start.
EMBROIDERY:
Pros
- works well with heavier weight garments
- very durable so it won't easily wear over time.
Cons
- does not work well on light weight garments
- logo reproduction is not 100% accurate
SCREEN PRINTING:
Pros
- produces vivid colors
- quick turnaround time
Cons
- multiple colors require multiple screens- can get very pricey
- Inks are not always environmentally friendly
GARMENT-PRINTING:
Pros
- photo-realistic images without the use of screens
- works well on whites and light colored garments
Cons
- colors are not as vibrant
- slower process compared to screen printing
SUBLIMATION:
Pros
- achieves and all over print
- using digital technology so each shirt can be different
Cons
- requires 100% polyester garments
- requires lighter colors

Why order from a promotional consultant?
With so many websites offering promotional products online, why should you order through a local company?
1. You are dealing with a recognized seasons business professional who adheres to the professional and industry standards.
2. Promotional Consultants understand the big picture. They are not just order takers, promotional consultants provide a marketing direction. Consultants can help you clarify your objectives, provide consistency, and integrate your promotional products into your marketing programs. Promotional consultants can become a valuable part of your creative team.
3. Promotional Consultants can offer a wide array of new products. Consultants are exposed to a great deal of ongoing education that allows them to know of new and exciting products. Consultants are also able to offer those to you at the best prices available. When you work one on one with a consultant you can rest easy that you are getting the best and newest products available at the best price.
4. One word, EXPERIENCE. Plain and simple promotional consultants know what works and what doesn't. They can offer the best products for your business to help you reach your marketing goal.
5. Promotional Consultants understand technology. Often times with promotional products different types of imprinting are used. Consultants know the best imprinting processes to use of specific items. Consultants can also offer advice when it comes to artwork as well as providing you with samples, so you know exactly what you are getting.
6. Best Prices. Promotional Consultants have strong relations with vendors and are able to pass along the best prices available. They are also able to pass on quantity discounts and pass along specials that are being offered on specific products.
7. Helping you with a distribution plan. Promotional products do not mean anything unless your products are passed out to your customers. Promotional consultants can help devise a timely and efficient plan to distribute your new promotional products.

Professionally Personalized Hits the Presses.
Professionally Personalized hits the press. Check out this article written about us. Business helps others get personal
Company offers various novelty itemsBy AMANDA LLEWELLYNVIEW STAFF WRITER
Ordering in bulk is not always better.
At least, that's what Mountain's Edge residents and marketing specialists John and Shannon Sholtz said they believe.
The pair are owners of the home-based Professionally Personalized, a business that specializes in advertising and marketing through a selection of novelty items.
"The great thing about our business is that we can work with large corporations or small mom and pop businesses," Shannon Sholtz said. "We can fill an order for 2,000 or two, depending upon what the business owner needs."
The Sholtzes founded Professionally Personalized earlier this year when they discovered there were not many options when it came to ordering promotional items in the small business market.
"It's sometimes hard on small business owners because a lot of novelty companies require you to order in bulk," John Sholtz said. "If you are the owner of a small pizzeria with five employees, you have no need to pay over a grand and order hundreds of hats or pens that nobody will ever wear, and you could never give away. It was ridiculous. And that's how we found our niche."
The company specializes in catering to the needs of each individual, according to Shannon Sholtz, who also says their selection is quite on par with the larger marketing specialty companies.
"We are a new and small business," Shannon Sholtz said. "But, we have large distributors and a lot of connections, which is why we are the ideal business contact."
Shannon Sholtz said the company can do pretty much anything in terms of orders. She said they also work in close connection with our clients to ensure that they are totally satisfied with the product.
"We talk about their goals and their needs as a business owner to help them decide what will work best for them," she said.
"Do they want pens that they can give away? Is it a promotional give away? Or do they want T-shirts for employees to wear for self-promotion? These are key factors in helping to decide what is the best approach."
According to John Sholtz, the company's personalization capabilities are not limited only to businesses.
"We can work with families and people who are interested in having something unique for a wedding," he said. "Family reunions, office parties, we can do it all. If you want a family picture on a mouse pad to give as a gift at Christmas or personalized water bottles at your wedding reception, we can help you get there."
