Summary
When getting started in the world of personalization, CustomInk is a fantastic example to follow. Custom Ink laid its foundation in North Virginia during the year 2000 and became one of the frontrunners when it comes to the personalization of caps and t-shirts.
Initially, it was difficult for them to provide customers with t-shirts in a conventional way. Also, as the technology that enables customers to design wasn’t so advanced, their major focus was satisfying their customers with the quality of t-shirts. And they kept that quest going. At this stage, the advancement in technology has led them to be a marketplace winner that has shipped over 60 million products.
Now, what if you get to implement a similar business model for your web-to-print business? Sounds like a great plan to make it big quickly, right?
At PrintXpand, we can get you a CustomInk clone, by setting up the store with our Web to Print Solutions in a similar flow. So, if you are looking for the same then read ahead…
First, let’s take a look at some features that set Custom Ink apart.
