“Free Shirt Every Week” Campaign

We started our “free shirt every week” campaign a couple of weeks ago and we’ve had great success. We’ve selected a few winners already. Congratulations!

We’ve also decided to create an introductory price for a period of time to help get the word out. Our shirts are now $15! (We’ve emailed and given the discount to those who have previously ordered since we launched a couple of weeks ago. Thanks again!)

We’re hoping to get new designs out real soon! Stay tuned…

What do customers want from a t-shirt company?

Weeks before I launched this site, I wrote down on my notebook to try and answer the question, “what do customers want from a t-shirt company?” Click the image on the left to see my notes. Here are some of the things I wrote down:

  • Quality shirts
  • Letting people know when new styles come out
  • A return policy that’s clear and generous
  • Letting them know how quickly they can get their order
  • If there are discounts for frequent buyers
  • A way to contact us easily
  • Cheap shipping but fast

The Help page may help answer some of your customer service questions. I also hope you know by now that you can contact me easily at aroundshirts@gmail.com. The website is new but I hope we’re doing the right things from the start. Thanks again for visiting Around Shirts!

Yes, We're Open

Welcome and thanks for visiting the new shop. Around Shirts is dedicated to t-shirts about countries and cities around the world. So far, there are five cities (Los Angeles, Tokyo, London, Beijing, and New York City) in the collection but I will be offering new designs every week or so.

All shirt designs are hand painted, then prepared for the printer using image editing software. I chose a local printer to make the entire process and business easier. I love our printer, by the way. He’s super easy to work with and willing to try different things to get the right effect on the shirt designs.

All shirts are super comfortable, super soft 100% cotton. They do shrink a bit so make sure you check out our sizing chart on our help page.

If you have any questions or requests, please email me at aroundshirts@gmail.com.

Thanks again for visiting Around Shirts. Since this site is very, very new, I would love it if you could give me some link love, some blog love, some twitter love, some facebook love, and some pass-on-to-friends love. Peace.
