How we’ve helped others to achieve their dreams
Premium quality products
Since 2015, Printful has helped us grow by making premium quality products for us. Our customers are constantly impressed with the quality of the print and shirts, and I wouldn’t use Printful if they didn’t carry across the premium quality nature of the products I desire my brand to be known for.

Recommend!
Printful has been absolutely crucial in helping our growth over the last year, handling the heavy lifting of production, storage, and delivery. Without Printful, we wouldn’t have been able to scale our sales anywhere near what we’ve been able to accomplish. The best part is, they just keep getting better so I’m excited to keep working with them!

LIVE A GREAT
The quality is really good!
I tried samples from a bunch of different companies—I wanted to make sure the quality was really good. Out of the samples I got, Printful was by far the best one. I recommend them to all my friends. For me, Printful has relieved so many anxieties I have about shipping, printing, the whole process of being a creator and selling your merch. It’s a cool way to put my art and designs onto actual products that people can wear.

Your earnings from selling custom t-shirts vary widely based on production costs, your pricing strategy, and sales volume. Custom t-shirt business profit margins typically range from 30% to 50%.
A good profit margin for custom t-shirts starts at 30%. There are tactics for increasing your t-shirt business profit margin:
- Choose premium quality t-shirts
- Combine several printing areas
- Try embroidery for a premium look
- Offer personalization options
- Use custom branding
To price a custom t-shirt, set it low enough to attract buyers but high enough to cover costs and make a profit. Usually, the sale price is 2–3 times higher than the production cost. If it costs $10 to make, you might sell it for $20 or $30. This way, the price feels right to customers, and you still turn a profit.
