What do we need to different to get you to order shirts????

Hello

We have added many different shirt including TRF shirts and we have not had many orders for any of them. I have more designs to do but if they are not going to sell then I am going to move on to some of the other plans we had for the embroidery machine. We wanted to provideroduct that was not out there in amny places but we want it to be worth our time. We have got great report and reviews put on here and EMMR but still very few sales.

So here is what we are looking for. Is there a demand or people who would like rocket related shirts or should we just move on and forget this part of the embroidery business?

What would you like to see and what kind of price to see the prodcuts go for.

Here is our web site address to take a look at www.tandmembroidery.com Please take a look and let us know good or bad we any and all feadback.

Thank you
Tom

I( would not give it up, however we are a small community and to depend overly much on us for a business strategy would be chancy. Keep the programming for your machine, and those of us who want some embroidery will be there when needed. I personally plan to ask you to quote the NERRF shirts once we get off our tushies and get things underway.

I am not giving up on the rocket club I have got a few of them but it is the rockets hirts that I am putting on my web site that I am talking about. I am not going to take them off but I am not going to ba adding them to quickly if no one wants them.

Not too sure.

I would like to have more shirts, but only have so many drawers.
Sorry.

As a side-
I got the shirt from your "Chance for a free shirt" thread.
Looks good and the work is very good.
Thanks.

Hey, I'm there with you! You've got some great shirts, and I was glad to get a couple.

Personally, I can't speak highly enough about them.

I purchased one of you're shirts for my daughter's birthday and was very happy The Mercury 7 shirt was perfect!
As for improvements I would be willing to buy more if the embroidery were larger, on an adult the size of the Mercury 7 is kind of small. If it were 3 times as large it would be more impressive! I realize it would cost more but it would be a nice option to have.
Thanks again I hope you get more orders.

Take a look at tom's shirts and order one you will be impressed!

I liked the designs, but echo the too-small sentiment. I'd also prefer a polo style and/or more options on colors, though i can appreciate your desire to keep inventory lean. Bu then again, I'm a supply chain expert for my day job...

All in all, I'm probably going to wind up buying something one of these days, probably when the temperatures in Ohio get back over 50 and it makes sense to think about short sleeves again.

I bought a Tee shirt for my daughter, but I would buy a Polo for myself and a long sleev for the winters in IL.

Thank you all for your information. The size I use is the standard for the left chest. From what I am hearing you would like a big design on the middle of the front of the shirt.

Also we are looking at getting new color of shirts what colors would you like. I am also going to be getting a order of polo shirts that we can put the left chest logo on what color would like to see them done in to.

Would there be any interest in a jean shirt long or short sleve. I also have many other style of shirt that I can get in 4 days. if you would like another style of shirt just drop us a line and we will get you a price.

black black black!! black t's and I would like to see black longsleeve t-shirts... (any idea what my fav. color is) I think the embrodery would really pop on black shirts

Tom,

I read the thread yesterday and was too embarassed to respond because the major reason I haven't purchased is I thought the embroidery was too small, although I like the designs.

Now that I see I'm not alone, I'm really glad you asked the question.

I'm not sure you need to go huge, or to the middle of the shirt.

I have to admit I don't know what is standard (and no one has ever accused me of having good taste ) but I was thinking more along the line of the same design, same location, just maybe 1.5 - 2 times the size.

Any possiblity of running a couple samples and then running a preference poll here on TRF?

Personally, and I know I'm not in the majority here, for the polo's I think the design is about the right size.

Anything bigger and they'd laugh at me, at work - especially all of those geek Aerospace Engineers. Kinda reminds me of the Far Side Rocket Scientists without the lab coats. The sad thing is - they're paid a bit better than me - so it's hard to make fun of them.

Tom, not knocking your product , you do some very nice work but look around at a launch, silkscreen shirts seems to be the ticket. thats from my observations

This is my question. Is there people who like the embroidery or silk screen or heat press shirt.

I agree with akpilot about the size. The Redstone design is 4.20" tall and 2.19" wide. We all ready had to change the design from going sideways to go up and down because of the smaller size the rocket was going into the arm pit. If it would get bigger it would have to go in the middle of the shirt or it will look to funny.

Small emblem on the front corner and a very large one on the back.To each his own but I hate a big pic on the front of a shirt.When people talk to me I like them to look at me and not my shirt.And yes I am aware that I'm a bit hypocritical because I own many shirts with stuff on the front but sometimes it's unavoidable or you just don't have a choice.Just my three cents.

We are working on a new Mercury redstone shirt that will have the same design on the front but ion the back it will have a large mercury redstone and the rocket specs. Does this sound like something more like what you guys would like?

I like the idea of the current Merc/Stone on the front with a

Big redstone on the back sounds cool;

but why the specs ?

that just makes a "tough" looking rocket look geeky

Thanks Tom, I will send you out a email tonight.

Tom,

I sent a message to your email several days ago looking for info on getting our club logo on a shirt and haven't heard anything back since. Are you backed up?

I just sent you a e-mail we have been busy at work and I have been working on taxes just about done.
