Sell Custom Baby Shower Shirts as a Party Planner Side Income

Custom baby shower shirts are a premium add-on that party planners and event businesses can offer without holding inventory or managing distribution. Bear Grips Pro Shops lets you set up a branded store for each event, set your own retail price, and earn a margin on every shirt guests order. The shirts print and ship directly to each buyer. You coordinate nothing after sharing the link.

How a Party Planner Sells Custom Baby Shower Shirts

The process for a party planner offering custom shower shirts as a service:

1. Set up a Bear Grips Pro Shops store. Free to set up. You upload or create the design for the event. This takes 30 to 60 minutes for a full matching set with multiple role variants.
2. Set the retail price. You set the price for each shirt. The difference between the Bear Grips base cost and your retail price is your margin per shirt sold. You can set any margin you want.
3. Share the store link with the client. The client shares it with guests. Each guest orders their own shirt independently. No size collection or money handling required from you or the client.
4. Shirts ship directly to guests. You receive nothing in the mail. No distribution at the event. The design work you did is the service. The shirts are the deliverable, and they arrive without your involvement.

Revenue Math for Baby Shower Shirt Add-On Sales

The income potential for a party planner adding custom shirts as a service:

Scenario	Guests Ordering	Margin Per Shirt	Revenue Per Event
Small intimate shower	8	$10	$80
Standard shower	15	$12	$180
Large celebration shower	25	$12	$300
Full matching set with hoodies	12	$18	$216

These numbers are passive: you receive the margin without ordering, handling, or distributing any shirts. The income compounds if you run multiple showers per month. At 4 showers per month with an average $150 shirt revenue each, shirts add $600 per month to your event business revenue with less than 2 hours of incremental work (design setup per event).

Additionally, when other party planners or event businesses sign up through your Bear Grips affiliate link, you earn 10% of their monthly subscription in recurring commissions. A single referral to a planner running 4 events per month compounds into ongoing passive income beyond your own event margin.

How to Price Custom Baby Shower Shirts as a Party Planner

Pricing custom shower shirts for a party planning add-on service:

• Base cost transparency: You do not need to disclose the Bear Grips base cost. The retail price you set is the price guests see. You are selling a curated, designed, coordinated matching shirt service, not a raw print cost markup.
• Flat retail pricing: Most planners set one retail price per shirt type (tees at $38 to $45, hoodies at $55 to $65) and present it as the event shirt package. Guests order at that price; you earn the margin.
• Design fee bundling: Some planners charge a flat design setup fee ($50 to $150 per event) for creating the coordinated matching set, on top of the shirt margin. This works well for complex sets with 4 to 6 role variants and custom personalization.
• Package the shirt with other services: A shower planning package that includes "coordinated custom shirts for the event" at a bundled price is easier to sell than a standalone shirt add-on. Clients pay for the full package; shirts are one deliverable in it.
