Athena (cool name:)

It was so great to get to know you on the phone a bit today, we'd love to work keep your pillar of the community standing for decades to come with the digital assets you need to compete for growth in the coming decades. 

We'd love to extend an olive branch fro you to be our partner shop in AZ that will receive the campaign we have ready to help one print shop stand apart from the rest. 

About Olive Branch Growth: 

After years of building websites, and ad campaigns for my online retail businesses, I grew sick and tired of managing inventory that was being manufactured overseas.

I scoured for positions to bring these inherently valuable web design and marketing skills to a local business here in my beautiful hometown of Fort Collins, Colorado. 

Garrett Danielson of Pine Print Shop found me while seeking some help combating slow season by developing systems that along with his one-man sales army, Patrick, would call and close with an unrelenting effort I've never seen topped. 

To generate inbound leads for Patrick in January, we built a better contact form using lead quizzes to create an interactive experience for potential buyers, built pages for SEO, and filmed reels to drive organic web traffic. 

In February we launched Google ads campaigns to attract all demand for our best-selling products.

By March we were up over 50% over last year.

In April Garrett purchased a warehouse and a press. The slow season had been effectively eliminated. Pine finished their year up 60% over last.

In May our systems were so bolted down and automated to the point that my job was just managing Instagram. After building the single most profitable funnel of my life I was hungry for more than social media management. Garrett then referred me to Dylan Gilligan of the Shirt Show Podcast who I developed New York Tee Company with.

Dylan soon after brought me into Upstate Merch and we repeated the same returns we saw at Pine. We've been referring each other shops and working on projects for over a year now and I like to think of myself as his secret weapon, as he always tells me not to work with anyone but his referrals.

A year later I have found myself with an incredible group of growth-minded print shops seeing success with my systems. 

We decided to ONLY work with screen printers for a couple of big reasons. There's so much margin to work with that ads are very very profitable immediately, and our websites and ads are PROVEN to work in this industry.

Another big reason we only work with screen printers is that 95% of the time you guys are just cool like-minded people who are easy to work with. Your inherent eye for design, sales, bootstrap mentality, and support of the American worker, consistently attract creative entrepreneurs whom we love collaborating with. 

Our unofficial mission is to strive to arm the rebels against the custom inks of the world stealing market share from small businesses. We want to help keep local manufacturing jobs, and the American dream prospering in this industry by giving the tools of tomorrow to the hard-working people of today.

It seems like T Shirt Antics would be a perfect fit for us. You've seen how sales can blow the lid off a business, wait until you add marketing.

Let's Grow,

Sincerely, Brian Mendoza

THE THREE PHASES

PHASE 1: THE BUILD 

Onboarding and building beautiful webpages, forms, lead quizzes, ad campaigns, etc. takes the most man-hours to build. I will be in contact with you to make sure your values and goals are represented and reached.

We are essentially building the machine for you. A machine where you put $50 in and get a new client out. This will provide consistency and a steady flow of revenue you can trust and rely upon. We will work with you every step of the way to ensure your core values and aesthetics are correctly represented in your online presence.

PHASE 2: OPTIMIZATION

Once she's up and running, this sales funnel is going to get looked at under a microscope, from the ads to the lead inbox, we'll go through and smooth every bump along the way, to ensure that not only are clients visiting your website, but that they are staying and converting into leads. We'll build out automation, email campaigns, and more. We'll make the perfect adjustments based on hundreds of thousands of data points to make sure there is steady traffic to your site. Ensuring that when a client enters your shop they are greeted with an aesthetically pleasing site where they have a fun time and leave a customer for life.

PHASE 3: SYSTEM ADMIN

The optimization efforts never go away.  Our work is never done with a google campaign, we'll keep constantly adding keywords from your data and the data from our dozen other printer clients across the country to make sure you are getting the highest value leads possible that will foster relationships that bring you business for years to come. 

MONTHLY AD SPEND:

Ad Spend can be turned up or down depending on your capacity and current turnaround time.

A good starting point is $30 a day which should generate you at least one lead per day. 

This should get you at least a new job per week, and allow Google and me enough data to optimize your campaign to target bigger clients reasonably early into this campaign.

If you have the extra room on your calendar and want to scale further, your strategy could support up to $100-$150 for 4-7 leads a day based on your production capacity.

When fall rolls around and the last thing you need is another job, you can always dial down to $10-20 a day to keep your market presence and keep your campaign ready for the slow season again.
