Side by Side

Old Way vs. Your New Pro Shop Way

Same three problems. Two very different answers.

Old Way

$2K to $5K

Bulk-Order Gamble

Inventory from past orders still in your office
XS, S, XL sit in the bin for months
Pieces go missing. You give the rest away

Your Pro Shop

$0 UPFRONT

No Inventory Ever

Member orders one, we print one
Zero cash tied up. Zero boxes to store
Profit hits your dashboard, not a bin

Old Way

3 WEEKS

To Reorder Anything

24, 36 or 48-piece minimums per color
Charged per color, per placement, per design
Sold out of sizes or colors grads want
Can't say yes without $2K + 3 weeks

Your Pro Shop

~1 WEEK

Door to Door

No minimums. Order 1 or 100, same price
Unlimited colors, designs, placements
Grads pick size and color at checkout
USA printed and shipped free to their door

Old Way

2 WASHES

Until It's Cardboard

Print cracks, shirt stiffens, color fades
Grads stop wearing it
You and your committee reach for other brands

Your Pro Shop

50+ WASHES

Still Soft

Premium blanks: Bella+Canvas, Champion, Sport-Tek
Soft on day 1, soft after 50 washes
Your crew reach for the class hoodie, not the other brand

Advisor & Family Reviews

Hear from senior class advisors and graduation families running this today.

Quality, sizing, time. The three things every class advisor wants to know about, answered by senior classes and PTAs already running their grad shop through us.

Mike R.

Senior Class Advisor

Q: HOW IS THE QUALITY WITH NO INVENTORY?

"I've advised the senior class for seven years and I've stacked enough leftover Class-of shirts in a closet to last forever. Was sure print-on-demand would feel cheap. Wrong. The Bella+Canvas tees, Champion hoodies, and comfort sweatshirts arrived crisp, weighty, and looked like a real merch drop. Washed the Class of 2026 hoodie a dozen times after the ceremony. Still sharp print, still soft. Grads wear them on college move-in day a year later. The print still pops."

Jenna T.

PTA President

Q: WHAT IF A FAMILY WANTS A SIZE OR COLOR I DIDN'T PICK?

"That was my biggest fear. Now it's not my problem. Families pick their own size and color at checkout, so I never run out and I never have to say no. The sheer variety of styles, fits, colors, and youth through adult 3XL sizing means little brother, mom, dad, and grandma all order the same grad-squad design in their own fit. And it costs me less per month than one cap and gown. I keep one of each piece in the front office so parents can feel it before they order. I'm just not stuck with a stack of unsold senior shirts after graduation week anymore."

Ryan K.

Class Committee Chair

Q: I HAVE NO TIME. CAN SOMEONE JUST RUN IT FOR ME?

"Done-For-You plan. I send one class wordmark a month, they handle every single piece. Build the senior class store, pick the trending pieces for the year, write the product pages, set the retail prices, swap collections for prom, graduation, and homecoming. I sit back, collect profit, and watch families check out live on my dashboard between meetings. Families thought the PTA hired a full marketing agency."

Class & Family Questions

The questions we get asked most

Can I print "Class of 2026," school name, and grad-themed art on tees, hoodies, and sweatshirts?+

Yes. Upload your graduation shirt designs, hand-lettered class wordmarks, photos for personalized graduation shirts, family team-name art, year stamps. Unlimited colors and elements on one side, no per-color fee. The catalog runs 60+ premium blanks across tees, hoodies, sweatshirts, polos, and hats. Every grad shirt reads like a custom run, not a generic graduation year shirt.

Can families build a "grad squad" or family pack with photos and personalized names?+

Yes. Upload the family graduation shirt design once. attach it to as many items as you want. Mom orders the cropped sweatshirt with her grad's photo. Dad orders the tee. Grandparents order the comfort hoodie. Little brother orders the youth tee. Everyone checks out themselves at the retail price you set. One design, one shop, the whole family in coordinated graduation apparel.

Do you cover high school, middle school, elementary, and college graduations?+

Yes. Most apparel runs from youth through adult 3XL. Build a high school graduation t shirts collection for the senior class, an elementary school graduation shirt line for the fifth-graders moving up, middle school graduation t shirts, college graduation apparel, even daycare graduation shirts and bootcamp graduation shirts. Different ceremony, same recipe.

Can different classes, ceremonies, and families have their own sections inside one shop?+

Yes. Your shop is one branded school or family URL, organized into sections: Senior Class of 2026, Class of 2027, PTA, Faculty, Family Pack, Grad Squad. Each group runs its own designs under your overall brand. Anyone in the class or family can self-order, you keep oversight, every order routes to one dashboard.

Can I sell teacher graduation shirts, parent shirts, and grandparent shirts alongside the senior class shop?+

Yes. Build a Teachers and Faculty section, a Parents collection, and a Grandparents collection alongside the senior-class drop. Custom graduation apparel for the people clapping in the bleachers, not just the students walking. Each section sells the same retail logic. you set the markup per item.

We already use Custom Ink or Bonfire for class shirts. Why switch?+

Three reasons most schools and families switch within a month. Shipping: theirs charges $8 to $10 per order, hidden. Ours is free, every order. Fees: theirs charges per color, per placement, per design. Ours is one flat base price, unlimited colors and elements. Permanence: theirs is one-and-done. Ours is a permanent graduation apparel store that lives at your URL year over year, ready for the next class of seniors, the next family graduate, the next milestone.

Do I pay anything when an order comes in? Is there a contract?+

Zero cost when a family member or student orders. They pay the retail price you set. Your profit lands directly in the dashboard. The rest covers our base price for printing, packing, and free USA shipping. No contracts. Cancel anytime. Most senior class advisors and families start on the free plan to test which designs hit, then upgrade to Self-Service VIP for lower base prices and bigger profit per shirt.
