Why you should be heat printing for summer sports events.

Every year, massive sporting events like the Wimbledon, The Ashes and Rugby / Football World Cups take place across the globe. The tourism, retail and service industry in the UK uses these events to satisfy customer demand and make millions of pounds every year by creating a space where customers can enjoy these sporting events without having to pay hundreds of pounds for game tickets. It's time for you to get in on the action!

Did you know there are 39,787 pubs in the UK? 

39,787 pubs in the UK that will be hosting events or themed evenings around the 2023 FIFA Womens World Cup.

39,787 potential clients that might need heat-printed event-themed t-shirts.

If this sounds too good to be true, just humour us for now and read on.

Hop on to google maps, type pubs into the search filter and google will present you with a map filled with the location of lots of pubs within walking distance of your current location. These pins could all be new potential clients for your heat printing business. You could approach them and offer to print their themed merchandise, for a price of course.

So how can you get started heat printing for the Women's FIFA World Cup?

Step 1: Create your Football themed design & save as a .eps, .jpeg or.pdf file.

Step 2: Open up an A3 UltraColour Heat Transfer page on Easyview, and upload your design. Here you can create designs from scratch or simply arrange and resize an uploaded design.

The key thing here is to fit as much as you can onto one sheet. This will reduce your price per transfer, ultimately offering you a higher profit margin.

Did you know, you can fit 2x A4 designs per A3 sheet? At a quantity of 10 sheets, this brings your price per transfer to £2.99 a transfer.

Fitting 4x A5 size prints onto an A3 sheet will bring your transfer price to £1.49 per transfer

You can also fit around 16 smaller 10cm designs per A3 sheet which would bring your transfer price to £0.37p per transfer.

Step 3: Place your order. We will have them on your doorstep with a couple of days.

Step 4: Combine these transfers with a £4 Bella+Canvas blank t-shirt and you've got a product that has cost you as little as £5-6 to make. At a wholesale price of £10-12, you could be making £4-6 profit per t-shirt!

(These shirts can be purchased from Ralawise.com with a minimum order of 1 while you're waiting for your heat transfers to arrive.)

If this has set your creative cogs turning, check out an alternative method for printing event t-shirts in our St Patricks Day blog. This method combines the use of two types of transfers to maximise your profit margins.
