Frequently Asked Questions

Swag.com covers the full corporate gifting and promo spectrum: water bottles, notebooks, phone stands, candle sets, the whole catalog. Sales teams that only need branded apparel can find the breadth overwhelming. Bear Grips Pro Shops takes the opposite approach: a focused 63-SKU apparel catalog tuned for the sales team workflow. Polos, hoodies, hats, quarter-zips, and tees. No promo items. No warehouse fees. No bulk-order MOQ. On-demand per-rep ordering at no minimum.

When Swag.com is the right fit

Swag.com makes sense for teams that need a mixed gift kit: branded apparel plus notebooks plus water bottles plus candles in a single coordinated welcome box. For the full corporate gifting program with non-apparel items, Swag.com handles all of it in one place. Pro Shops is apparel-only and does not compete on non-apparel.

Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.

When Pro Shops is the right fit

Apparel-focused sales team store: polos, hoodies, hats, no promo items.
Low-volume on-demand orders: under the Swag.com MOQ.
Fast turnaround: about a week, not 2 to 4 weeks.
No warehouse fees: on-demand fulfillment, no storage charge.
Direct-to-rep shipping: ship each rep their order without consolidating to one office.

Hybrid approach: Swag.com plus Pro Shops

Many sales ops teams run both. Swag.com handles the corporate gifting program (new hire welcome kit with notebook plus water bottle plus tote). Pro Shops handles the ongoing apparel swag store: every rep ordering their size polo and hoodie on demand. The two platforms cover different swag moments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Pro Shops do promo items like water bottles and notebooks?

No. We are apparel only. For mixed gift kits with non-apparel, use Swag.com or a similar promo platform.

Can I run both platforms at the same time?

Yes. Many ops teams use both: Swag.com for corporate gifting, Pro Shops for the apparel swag store.

Does Pro Shops charge a warehouse fee for stored inventory?

No. We do not warehouse inventory. Every order prints and ships on demand.

How does the per-rep ordering UX compare?

Both platforms have an employee store option. Pro Shops includes it by default at the VIP plan. Swag.com offers it as a paid add-on.
