T-shirt Printing Company Shirtificates Wins Award
Wednesday 09th of May 2007 03:46:12 AM
Of the 19 entries that were entered into the Great Valley Technology Alliance Business Plan Competition, which is sponsored by 28 different companies and small businesses in Northeastern Pennsylvania, USA, only one would win the grand prize. Shirtificates.com, a t-shirt printing company that helps charity organizations create and order t-shirts that are used for fundraisers. Using the web site, these organisations are able to upload logos, slogans, and other designs to be printed on t-shirts.Assisting charitable organisations in creating fundraising merchandise is one way to help them prepare for fundraising events, which can be very stressful and complicated. “They’re very time consuming,” said Allison Davis, one of the company’s partners.. Shirtificates.com can help make this process much easier. T-shirts are printed and shipped to the organisation. Since it is difficult to tell how many shirts will be sold during a fundraiser, reordering is very easy using the web site.
As the winners of this competition, Allison Davis and Danielle Wido, will receive a year of rent-free retail space, US 20,000 in spending money, and US 30,000 to help pay for start-up costs. Two other businesses chosen as runners-up received similar monetary packages. Alliance vice president Ken Okrepkie said, “The turnout was phenomenal. There’s an entrepreneurship that’s growing in Northeastern Pennsylvania.”
Promoting small businesses is vital to regions that are experiencing growth. Partnering with local colleges in the area and other small businesses, the alliance has been able to help new businesses grow for the past five years.

Good all round. Will order again.
the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
