yoooooo THANK YOU for your continued support! this channel only survives because of the cool ass people that watch these videos.
Great explanation on price break down....I've often wondered if I was pricing to high or to low. This clears things up..transfer express is awesome, I only have used them 3 or 4 times, but they have been good to me so far. Thanks for the info!
thats right!!! thanks for watchib
You’re always dropping so much game ! Thank you ! ✊🏾
yoooo i appreciate that! thanks for watching
Business classes I took say that you MUST profit off of everything, including the shirt... great starting point.
that would run your price up but if thats how you wanna operate, go for it. so a $3 shirt would cost the customer $6 and a $2.50 transfer is now $5. so $11 for materials with no labor yet is brutal to a customer. i know i wouldnt pay someone $11+ a shirt for a bulk order hahahahaaa but rverybody runs their businesses their own way. theres no right or wrong answer
You are ALWAY so on point! The advice you give is priceless. Glad to hear about your affiliate link with Transfer Express. You are the entrepreneur extraordinaire ! I make a point of telling all my students to subscribe if they want to get great advice!

Right on time! Got a mtg in a few hours and was second guessing my rate. This solidified my thoughts. Thank you!

I use transfer express for larger orders they never disappoint. And when they did mess up on two sheets they made it right, sent over 5 prints and next day delivery.
thats right! 👊🏾
I love transfer express
Brilliant video explaining everything loud and clear
thanks for watchin 👊🏾
Thanks, G. This reminded me of things I had forgotten

Trying to catch all the gems you are dropping. Thanks the insight
hahaa thanks Sketches for the continued support! 👊🏾
Ekkk, just ordered $500 of UltraSoft transfers, I'm sorry I had no idea you were an affiliate... I'll call on Mon. see if they would still give you credit... I got into the t-shirt gig by watching you & Stan Banks... I've learned a lot
all good! dont even worry about it! thanks for watchin and good luck with your business!
I love your channel. Such a life saver!!
I appreciate this 👌 gonna try to apply this to supacolor transfers
works with supa transfers all day long and even better is the price break down for multi color screen prints are crazy. so your price will always be cheaper than a screen print shop when it comes to multi color prints.
Thanks for the come up.

Dope info fam
thanks for watchin
Oh snap. We need a “how to quote shipping” video if you haven’t done that already.
i got shipping vids. but i charge customers whatever it cost to ship
This helps a lot. I dont have set pricing for big orders. And right now..orders are coming in and they want it that week lol 😂🤦♀️
you can rush order transfers, charge the customer for the rush shipping tho.
@@BigBrandoh ahhh!!! Got it!! 🙏🙏
Big brando! I appreciate the knowledge G. Been watching your videos and ive learned alot. Thanks! Quick question, do u press a second time? U said 10 seconds for the goof proof, but do you press it just once?
HELL YEAH BROTHA THANKS
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Hi Brandoh. I was wondering how do you hand refunds or exchanges? Not sure if you made a video on that subject. On another note, your videos have not only inspired me but really helped me do something I put off for too long. So thank you for putting 🔥 out. 🤙🏽
What color shirt do you sell the most? What brand shirt do you like the best?
When you order transfers for the designs do they have to be the same to get the discount for ordering 200? Like can I order 50 of 1 design and 150 of a different design...?
Nice bro. I needed this. One of my co workers jus hit me up for a 50 qty order
hell yeah! Get that moneyyyy homie 👊🏾
Right on!!!!
Thanks for the info, I had that problem... I'm just starting a small business and I don't know how much to charge...
pricing gets tricky but knowing what services you are offering helps to figure out pricing.
Hey bro I been using transfer express for about 7yrs bro...you can call and they will walk you thru the process to make sure your order is perfect
agreed 100000%
Just got my Stalhs IQ 360 hat press. I'm using Supacolor transfers bit not sure what settings to use for the top and bottom plates. Thanks
adjust your pressure according to supa's intructions and set your heat to their instructions. that'll give you a good starting point. make adjustments as you go.
question let’s say I determine what the best quickest cheapest way for me to complete a customers project is for example I do dtg instead of screen print sometimes and sometimes I’ll heat press a shirt however sometimes I will PURPOSELY DTG or screen print a shirt even though HTV would have been much easier......I do that because I believe the customer will like the feel of a dtg or screen print shirt much better....but I never like to spend time explaining forever to each and every customer the differences so I don’t ask the customer what service they would prefer....I mean some don’t even know what they would like some customers are over the phone so I can’t show them the difference. I just know when I can make it nice (dtg or screen print) I try to do that because I’m assuming they’ll like it more.....do you think it’s foolish I do this? Do you think I should flat out ask every customer what they prefer and explain the differences over the phone? Do you have a process? Please help
nope. i would keep doin what you do. if its worked for you this long, dont change it up hahahaa. my only concern would be cost to create. as long as you are still profitable and all over head is taken care of. keep doin what works for you.
@@BigBrandoh thanks brotha!
Mr. Brandoh, would you mind recommending a few Sales and Inventory tracking software? I am planning on releasing my brand on November 1st and need to set up a quality software management tool. Thank you in advance.
i just use shopify for EVERYTHING
ive been making sales this way ... but it changes from customer to customer and type of shirt ect .. thanks brando
🎯 thanks for watchin 👊🏾
I got a laser video going up soon check me out if you got time
What about your profit on the t shirt, to re up? Also, can you make a vinyl design and have it made into a transfer? Love your Videos bruh!!
reup on what? the customer bulk orders 80 shirts. you gona reup another 80 for them? im not i understand your question.
but if you wanna double your shirt cost, go for it. these arent concrete numbers, this is just an example. but it seems like if you were goin off profiting off the blank shirt you would also need to double the cost of your transfers too. gona be hard to compete with print shops at that rate
Great info. For doing mass orders wouldn’t there be a setup fee if I have to create the design for them if they don’t already have a design?
i wouldnt consider that a set up fee but more of a labor fee. because thats your design time. if im doin graphics for somebody, i always build that time into my labor pricing
YEEE YEEEEEE
I have my resellers permit and ENI # already, where do you purchase the alstyle shirts? I’ve always liked the fit and want to start out my brand with these
get'em directly from alstyle. open an account and start ordering
Great video. So can you do about 15 t-shirts for me. I’m starting a t-shirt business as well but need to rely on other companies until I can afford my own equipment. I’m close by, here in Los Angeles. 😊. Let me know.
my shops minimum is 48 shirts.
Hey u know anything bout the ghost white toner printers
nah sorry. i know nothing about those printers.
What’s the link for those transfers? What about HTV?
all links are in my description box
What about people that hit u up just for the design on the vinyl and they wanna press it themselves?
i say no. hahaha i turn down alot of work. if theres no money in it for me, then it aint worth my time.
@@BigBrandoh thats exactly what I say too👍
just started watching your vids and i was wondering do you know what blanks billionaire boys club and human made use if they did use them
bah i have no idea who they use, they might have their own cut and see program in place. but in not 100% sure
@@BigBrandoh thanks
So if you make $100 do you eat the shipping cost when ordering the transfers?
$100 profit, shipping to get transfers was $12
So $100-$12= $88 total profit
never eat the cost. total cost should roll into your retail price. but for example, when i order transfers i usually make the threshold for free shipping or when goin thru supacolor i can will call pick up my order. same goes for ordering shirts. i make the threshold for free shipping. BUT if you have to pay for shipping, the customer should always pay that.
Big Brandoh whats the best place to get plastisol gang sheets?
check the links in my description box
Wat up, just bought your enlist. Great great info. Quick question, if you had to press 100 black lives matter( white letters only 10x10) on black shirts. Would you go plastisol or htv. Htv is going to cost about $100 more, but I can guarantee the quality and life of the shirt. Is plastisol quantity vs quality??
two differenr print methods. plastisol transfers are screen printed transfers with plastisol ink. htv is vinyl. both will out live the shirt its pressed on when applied correctly. but weeding vinyl for 100 shirts is alot of work. if your up for cutting and weeding all that go for it. if not, transfers are what i would choose for that job
What about when the want the shirts within a few days?
screen print shops charge a rush fee for jobs needed within a few days. so you do the same. rush order the transfers and charge the customer for that rush fee
So when you have an order and you have to order the shirts and the transfer how long do you usually tell the customer before you can have the shirts done? I’m just starting so I tell em to send me their design and or idea. I’ll send em an invoice within 48 hrs and then I can have the shirts done around 5 days depending on the order.
i usually build a weeks worth of production time into my orders. depending on size of job, 500+ orders i build more time. but knowing how long shit takes to be delivered.. but i personally dont like to work up until the deadline i like to build a cushion in that deadline just incase shit goes wrong hahahaa like ups laggin on my shipment.
@@BigBrandoh appreciate that! Love your videos too they are straight to the point and give great information. I just had a last minute birthday shirts and I was using heat transfer Inkjet printables and was trying to die cut with my cameo 4 and it was cutting off the image. Not sure why still haven’t figured it out. Smh lol I was scared thinking I couldn’t make the order but I just cut that shit by hand cuz when I stuck the whole piece on the shirt it had like a yellow tinted box around the design. Smh I’m learning everyday. Do you use cameo?
What's your opinion on super color
i got vids talkin and showin supacolor. check'em out
Inkjet printer it's okay to use in heat press?
not sure. i dont use inkjet printers or laser printers. i dont print transfers from home
Big bro, I have the same press you have,TE says to press their transfers 10 degrees hotter if we don't have a stahl's press . Is this true & have you had to do this ?
check out my sample pack. thats why i made it haha. for this exact reason. having manual presses vs pneumatic presses. our settings will be different from the tramsfer company's recommended settings BUT not too far off. my sample pack comes with instructions how I lay the transfers down. and what works for me
Cool & cool I'll definitely grab it & check it out. Preciate it !
Do you create logos for people? If so how much? I gotta small project I wanna start but need a few designs done.
i do but right now i am not taking in any new clients. check the description box for some dope graphic designers tho
Do you press your shirts before putting the design on it
yes i pre press for 3 seconds or so. just to get the moisture out and give me a nice flat surface
Can I get your opinion. Starting a tshirt brand targeted toward young adult men. Trying to pick a blank. Do you think the side seam matters? Some say the side seam shows a better quality shirt. Thx!
side seam or tubular shirts dont matter much to me. but young adult men is a broad group to sell too. i say this because, some young adult men like to wear their shirts fitted and some like to wear them loose. sone like soft cotton and some like heavy cotton, some like high and tight sleeves and some like long below the elbow sleeves... best way to figure out which shirts to use, look at your core demographic, check out their instagram and see what they already wear. are they wearing fitted shirts or loose streetwear style shirts? this will help you out alot. cuz i personally dont like side seam shirts. after you wash them they fit weird hahahaa but im also not a young adult. im a fat middle aged man that likes to wear loose fitting t shirts so my nipples dont poke out hahahahaa.
What about color prints?
what about them?
Im trying to sell prints to people.
dope
20 dollars for a custom shirt is cheap af
