I started, got an order from my friend (He was helping me get started).

My press was 'Wonky' (100f less in the middle than the advertised temp - fcked) so I called for help - a Giraffe came to my rescue.

I undertook a 130 mile round trip to see a Pro at work - learned more in that 120 minutes than I could ever hope to do online and have a happy image to celebrate my very first venture into the Tee World:

Merry Christmas.

You should have sold him a dog coat at the same time... come on Nik where is your upselling LOL!!!!

(and before you ask... yes Ralawise sell them)

I have learnt a lot from the Giraffe too.. and looks like you've done great there with your order looking good..

Totally agree on the upsell.. loads of people dress their poor dogs lol

I have to agree with the both of you - our 'tall' friend has been so patient and helpful to me as well. As has Kris at Listawoods - dedication to a new customer above and beyond the call of duty!

Arthur

Wow, looking good. Well done

Excellent thats really good , Ive had my first customers last week but they were for vinyl signs not sublimation

Its good to hear others on here helping each other , I ve learnt a lot by reading on here but nop doubt sooner or later I will be asking questions !!!

Simon is a top geezer, but seeing as he's like 5 days away by Yak from me can you share what you learnt about fixing the temp on your wonky press please Nik?

This was my first customer for Tee's, he also had a batch of mugs from me.

As for Vinyl, I have done really well from that - I worked out what my business owes me yesterday and after all of those early vinyl sales I am very happy with the result.. if I carry on like this I will be in profit within the year

As for Wonky press - Buy an Adkins - I will use the 'Wonky' one as a dedicated Cap press when I get it back with the associated attachment.

I just heard from xPress - they dont have any Adkins until 21st so I will have to wait a bit longer for that
