With over a decade of experience printing custom tshirts and promotional products, the staff of 248creative LLC, parent company responsible for ShirtsForBands.com has launched a new service catering exclusively to songwriters, bands, independent musicians and record labels. The site uses next generation technology in their online design application, which allows musicians to choose products and create artwork that reflect cutting edge design sensibilities and product options. ShirtsForBands.com also records orders and artwork, allowing easy reordering and low minimum order quantities, perfect for keeping merchandise booths full at shows.

Thomas Desmond, 248creative’s Lead Developer and creator of ShirtsForBands.com says “We’ve been printing for a large client base for many years, but one group that consistently gets under served are the musicians and record labels. There’s a stigma surrounding that community that leads many of our competitors to disregard them, as musicians ourselves, we disagree with that idea and invite that community to deal with us with open arms…”.

ShirtsForBands.com goes a step further, offering specialty fashion (such as Alternative Apparel) and promotional product choices that meet the needs of the musician community more closely than the generic options of competitors. Products such as over-sized full color sublimated stage banners promise great impact on stage at a low price compared to other options for bands, such as vinyl or polymer banners.

“… Our prices are lower, too…” says Desmond, stating that “… we plan to offer $20 off discount coupons to new bands looking to find a supplier that understands what they’re looking for. We’re trying to build relationships with this community, not climb on them and suck every last dollar out of their wallets.”

The ShirtsForBands.com service is currently live with most product options and is scheduled for full launch in early April 2008.

248creative LLC is a media development firm specializing in high-impact event marketing, promotional product marketing, and rich media design. 248creative LLC’s website can be found at www.248creative.com.

You read it right. We’re looking for operatives for our street team.

It’s simple! We send you some flyers with a special code on them, you pass them out wherever you go that bands are. A show, the bar, whatever. You want to leave a small stack on the bar for people to take, no problem. Just get them into hands out there. We’re no huge corporation, we’re DIY!

We can track how many people you send to us through the code, the more you send, the more we hook you up.

If we get 1000 people to our site, we’ll bump you up to agent, which means you’ll start to get a cut of ANYTHING ANYONE BUYS FROM US with YOUR CODE as their promo! If you know alot of bands in your area, you get them on our site to buy their merch and WE’LL SEND YOU A CHECK!
