Cut-and-sew and drop-shipping, along with kitting (I will never not talk about kitting), are some of the biggest buzzwords in the promotional products industry right now. But you might be asking what does that mean, and how does that work? What are the benefits? Well, I’m going to break it down for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cut-and-sew products are a great way for your customers to promote their business that’s a little more customized than stock products. They can completely tailor a product from top to bottom, from plush to apparel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drop-shipping, meanwhile, is a cost-effective way to get products to the end-users who may not have the warehouse or storage capabilities to store a ton of products. Products ship directly from the manufacturer to the intended recipient. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s an example. If you haven’t figured it out by now, I love metal.<\/a> And one of my favorite webcomics is called Belzebubs. It’s by Finnish author JP Ahonen, and it’s a slice-of-life comic about the misadventures of a black metal band and their lead singer’s family. It’s delightfully charming and hilarious. Along with the book that JP Ahonen released, the fictional band also recorded and released an album – which is really good. But I was most interested in the plush that one of the main character’s kids carried around – Mr. Satan. I was disappointed when I learned that Makeship had already made one, and it wasn’t available to order any more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
