Every sports league can’t wait to jump into game time as the season creeps closer and closer. The kids are anxious and the parents are just realizing how much prep work is really involved. The team needs uniforms, spirit wear, coach’s gear & possibly extra products to sell at the game for fund raiser purposes. Whew… that’s a lot to organize!
It would be great if money was available up front & the team only had to do one big order. But that’s sadly not the reality. Money is difficult to collect from each child and there are always roster changes after the team gear has been ordered. There has got to be a more efficient way to organize orders & payment.
Custom Web Stores are the perfect solution. For example, a soccer team has its own online web store where the individual players can order their gear and pay online via credit card. No more bulk orders, no more hassling with money – it is seamless and easy.
Now how does a league go about setting up a custom web store? You’d be surprised that many of the custom apparel shops that provide team gear can also create & maintain your teams online store. Once the apparel designs are completed and sent into production the shop takes pictures and uploads the products to your custom web store. From there the individual players access the website, place their orders, pay online & pickup at the shop location.
Now that the parents don’t have to stress about apparel orders and handling money, their energy can be spent cheering for the kids at the big game!
