It is that time again! Custom Classic Manufacturing (CCM) is starting production on those massive t-shirt screen printing orders for our distributor client’s.  Non profit fundraising events; specifically the Bike rides and 5-10k runs,  seem to be the primary focus. Traditionally, as the weather warms up, buttons, caps, t-shirts, lanyards, and all kinds of screen printing are in high demand  for everything from charity events to golf tournaments.

Next week, we will be able to show you some amazing sneak peaks at our new screen printing machine. It’s the  latest and greatest in technology and speed, with up to a 9 color print to boot!  This will allow us to make our (already competitive) lead times, even shorter! We’re always striving to innovate, and provide our distributor clients with satisfaction, great products and great work.

Recently, we have worked on some interesting projects involving our popular buttons on card stock offering. The most recent job was for a major campaign just starting to break, which was also highlighted on a major Toronto Blob site yesterday.

In the coming weeks, expect to see Roger Gingerich of the Gingerich Group out and about visiting YOU and discussing the various products and options available from Custom Classics! We call it “Rog on the Road”. Watch for some cool videos of his pop up appearances in our next blog entries.

Even though Frosh Week may seem a long way away, brainstorming unique ideas with your University/Colleges end user clients, and showing them previous successful projects is always topical.
At Custom Classic, we have worked with our distributors, helping Universities and Colleges make their Frosh Weeks both stand out, and remain memorable for the students.  Make sure you keep us top of mind for any events small or large!

Besides the great uses for buttons and magnets in events, our most popular offering is our high quality screen printed t-shirts and corporate apparel.  We outfit all events large to small in Toronto and GTA areas.  We pride ourselves on quality, turn around and competitive pricing for our clients, and we work alongside our clients to develop the proper branding for their customers.

For client charity events, nice tie in (no pun intended), have been the branded ribbons, via colour and printing, to show support.  Also, stickers printed with event or business logo’s are popular, as they can be a lasting take away for attendee’s at each event.  These additions to the customers event can highlight your attention to detail, and show the versatility of offerings from the start to finish of the event.

By now your non profit end user clients are likely working on upcoming charity events, fundraising runs, and ironing out the details for their Spring/Summer events. It is around this time, they may be looking for screen printed t-shirts and “point of event” items for their upcoming projects;  and we can provide you with the branding your clients need to help voice their cause.

A popular addition to fundraising events is to have each participant proudly showing their support via buttons. And with our new ANATOL 9 color screen printing machines, printed t-shirts for thanking sponsors are a fast turn around in vibrant colour.

Everything your non profit end user clients need to help make their special events a smashing success…Custom Classic can be your point of reference, and together we can ensure their events make a difference!

Coming off a weekend of chilly temperatures and the cusp of Friday the 13th, this week we prepare for the upcoming PPPC Show…  rain or snow!

Looking forward to connecting with you!

On the road, on the phone and out there showing you the Custom Classic goodies… we bring you Roger Gingerich and Danielle Dawson of the Gingerich Group.

If you haven’t had a chance to sit with them yet, they are making their rounds, fully stocked with catalogues and creative juices, so expect a visit soon or call them for a one and one at the King West Showroom.

So, why CCM? And what advice do the pro’s have on this dreary Wednesday afternoon…

Words from Danielle and “the Rog”.

What do you see as the top 3 trends in promo marketing for the 2012?

1. Usability: Gone are the days of frivolous gifting. Now there is more focus on usabilty for your demographic.

2. Creativity- 2012 we need to think inside the box again. People want a high value for low cost and Custom Classic provides high quality items, with fast turn around, while keeping the costs economical.

3. Value which hasn’t changed over the last few year; so high perceived value for a low cost is a reoccurring trend in the marketplace.

How does Custom Classic fill a niche in an otherwise crowded market place?

Custom Classic has decades of experience which makes them knowledgeable with what works and doesn’t work in the market place. Also, being a manufacturer right in the core of downtown makes for turn around times we all can appreciate.

Who is the Custom Classic customer?

Everyone! Custom classic has a product for all demographics. It could be a childrens’ hockey team with buttons or as large Tim Hortons promotions across Canada.

Our customer has a need, we can fulfill and meet. We are proud of the clients we have had the privilage to work with, and look forward to more challenges and partnerships for 2012.
