Thanks For A Great Year!

Friday, December 18th, 2009

The economic uncertainty plagued almost everyone in 2009. Our industry was down by 15-20% according to most estimates. I am proud to say that our team got great results this year–we experienced double digits growth and outpaced overall e-commerce growth.

There is so much to be thankful for this year. Thanks to our customers and dedicated team of employees for all your support. Our success could not have happened without you!

Happy Holidays

In 2009 we were named to the Inc. 5000 list, surpassed 2 million designs created with our Online Designer, and improved customer satisfaction. Best of all, our growth has really picked up in the last four months. It looks as if the economy and investment is primed to improve. I hope your business is experiencing an uptick too.

Happy Holidays and best wishes for a healthy and prosperous New Year. I am optimistic and can’t wait to improve LogoSportswear in the New Year.

Sponsors Names On Team Jerseys A Sign of the Times

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Professional sports teams overseas have been sporting sponsor’s names prominently on the front of team jerseys for years. Just last week, AON Corp. announced that it would replace AIG and feature the AON brand prominently on the front of Manchester United’s soccer jersey starting with the 2010-11 season. Reports are that the four-year agreement cost about $132 million.

Up to now the jerseys of professional and college teams in the US have been largely without sponsor’s logos except maybe for the small logos from the brands Nike, Adidas, etc. The opportunity to sell advertising on these jerseys can be huge and both the NBA and NFL just announced programs to test these waters.

The NY Times recently reported that the WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury locked up a deal to have LifeLock’s 10-inch-by-4-inch name of the identity-theft protection company stretching across the team’s jerseys. A small Mercury logo appears like a badge on the upper left of the jersey. “The rest of the world considers this business as usual and assumes this is the way professional sports teams market,” Rick Welts president of the N.B.A.’s Phoenix Suns, which owns the Mercury said.

A few NFL franchises are now exploring sponsorship deals that would put marketers’ names and logos on team practice jerseys, according to AdAge. The NFL passed a rule in March that allows teams to pursue local sponsorship opportunities that can give companies the chance to put 3 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch patches on the shoulders of practice jerseys in order to bring in a new revenue stream.

There is no doubt custom team jerseys with sponsor names can offer advertisers valuable real estate, especially for teams that are regularly featured on television and other media outlets. However the major sports leagues in the US have built up very lucrative licensed sports jersey businesses. Will sponsor’s names on jerseys affect this business? Perhaps not. Even with the AIG name on its jerseys, Manchester United still manages to sell about 6.6 million jerseys a year.

In these tough economic times, sponsorship on jerseys shouldn’t be the sole domain of high profile professional and college sports teams. As a sign of the times, look for sponsors names to prominently appear on the team uniforms of lower profile schools and recreation teams. It is a great way to offset team uniform and program expenses. It is worth pitching the idea to sponsors. With many different team decoration options, our TeamSportswear site can personalize custom jerseys with sponsor names and logos however you want.

Perfect End To A Perfect Season, UCONN Wins 6th National Championship

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

I always look for inspiration to improve myself and our business. As a sports lover I enjoy following successful teams and look to takeaway some pearls of wisdom on what makes them special.

UCONN is a hotbed for college basketball. Those of us who are UCONN alumni or live in Connecticut follow UCONN men and women basketball in part to survive the long New England Winters but also to enjoy the incredible competitive and team spirit each team possesses. That spirit starts with UCONN’s Hall of Fame coaches, Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma–both of whom took their teams to the Final Four this year.

It is UCONN’s women basketball team that deserves special recognition this year after finishing with a perfect season with a win at the NCAA finals. It is really hard to win a national championship. The fact that the lady Huskies have won SIX National Championship since 1995 speaks to their dominance.

To win a national championship, without a single loss, may be considered a once in a lifetime dream–so many things could go wrong during the course of the season. Well for the UCONN ladies the bar is really, really high–this is their THIRD perfect season, an amazing accomplisment.

Though we can not celebrate another UCONN dual Mens/Ladies championship like 2004, we can help UCONN basketball fans everywhere take part in this great season. You can now purchase official NCAA licensed souvenir UCONN Championship T-shirts and Apparel at our niche site, ChampionshipTshirts.com. It makes the perfect gift to remember this perfect season.

The tradition continues, way to go UCONN!

The T-shirt Economy

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

I came across an interesting article this week from Wired called “How T-Shirts Keep Online Content Free.”

The article confirms what we are experiencing daily from our Share and Sell program. Creative people are harnessing the “T-shirt economy” by offering for sale custom t-shirts and other products to their visitors and community. Our shop partners are selling shirts, making money and having fun doing it!

Remember it doesn’t cost one cent to create your own Share and Sell t-shirt shop. We offer printed shirts and a full-line of embroidered sportswear that can easily be created through our Online Embroidery Designer.

The T-shirt economy is indeed a “Long Tail phenomenon.” Underfunded organizations, schools, sports teams, you name it, can now create their own stores in no time and start reaping profits immediately. You don’t need an artist to create your shirt designs–we have made it easy by supplying, free customizable design templates for you to choose from.

Tiger Woods and Nike, Simply The Best

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

It is a shame that Tiger Woods will have to sit out the rest of the golf season to mend his knee. I will miss watching him, especially at the last two majors of the year, the British Open and the PGA Championship. Watching Tiger grind and gut it out to win the U.S. Open just adds to his legend–not only in golf but in all of sport. His incredible mental toughness and grounded, caring personality is a huge asset to Nike, a company whose mission is to align itself with winning athletes and products.

Tiger’s unmatched mental strength is passed down by his late father, Earl Woods. In Nike’s new ad that aired last weekend during the Open, Earl tells Tiger “that you’ll never meet another person as mentally tough as you in your entire life.’ And he hasn’t. And he never will.” The timing was amazing given Tiger’s performance down the stretch. You can view the ad on Utube.

If your company or team wants to look the best and be the best then let us print or embroider Nike performance clothing for you. We proudly personalize Nike Golf clothing along with Tiger Woods golf shirts and caps. My favorite has to be the red, mercerized cotton, Dri Fit shirt that Tiger wears on Sundays.

LogoSportswear also just added new custom Nike activewear to our site. Our line-up includes custom Nike shirts, shorts and custom Nike sweatshirts.

Co-brand your name with the biggest winners in Sports: Tiger Woods, Nike (and of course LogoSportswear.com and TeamSportswear.com :) )
