Grow Your Female-Focused Brand with a Storefront on Customized Girl

It’s a new day and age where sports are no longer just for the guys. Ladies love showing off their sporty side by showing support for their favorite team or rocking their gear on the playing field. Endzone Empress understands the love and passion ladies have for their sports and targets those females who love anything and everything about sports. They offer fashionable, flirty, but yet sporty apparel that will satisfy every die hard sports fan. Most importantly, Endzone Empress is designed by a sports chick for fellow sports chicks.

Endzone Empress is a storefront after Customized Girl’s own heart and that is why they are our storefront of the month. Customized Girl has the best and largest variety of custom apparel for women. We love seeing storefronts seize that opportunity to target a specific niche while creating trendy and fashionable designs. Endzone Empress is a new storefront that is doing a fantastic job of getting their brand out there and marketing across all social media. Are you a lady who loves her fantasy football? Or do you play your heart on the field? If the answer is yes then you should definitely check out Endzone Empress.

Year End Changes to Item Colors

We’re coming up on the end of the year, and unfortunately that means we need to address all the item colors that our vendors and manufacturers are no longer providing. Soon, we’ll be pausing the following item colors.

When this happens, we will choose the closest possible substitute color for your design. You shouldn’t have to do anything else, but if you are very particular about your item colors (for example: if you have a store for your youth football team) you might want to double check your design.

We won’t email you again about these changes because we don’t want to bother you.

If we had to remove an item completely, we’ve already done so. (Hopefully there aren’t any surprises from our vendors, but that can happen unfortunately.) If you were affected by the removal of an item, you should have received an email about it. Over the past two months, we’ve tried our hardest to find a suitable replacement item and swapped it out for you. Hopefully all those affected were satisfied with the results.

Soon we will be pausing the following colors:

Custom Apparel Storefronts for Youth Booster Clubs & Teams

It a start of a new school year and for many individuals that means it is time to start fundraising. Fundraising can be a year long event from seasonal athletics, club teams, and any school functions. In most cases fundraising responsibility is left up to booster clubs.  Booster clubs are organizations that are formed to support and raise money and are generally essential in supporting youth athletics. Instead of thinking of new fundraising ideas every year, Customized Girl has added storefronts to not only raise money but to also bring awareness and support for your team.

Customized Girl Storefronts are an extremely easy way to raise funds for any sports team. Our art gallery has an endless variety of sports themed art and our designers supply sporty designs to help give you ideas. If some reason we don’t have the art you are looking for let us know and we will add it for you! There are absolutely no start-up costs to open a storefront, nor will you ever pay a fee to maintain your storefront. Simply design the tees, tanks, sweatshirts, and accessories you’d like to sell for your organization, promote your storefront to volunteers and supporters, and collect the royalty earnings to use for upcoming events or general fundraising needs.  All you have to do is design. Customized Girl processes orders, prints the designs onto apparel, and even ships the products from your storefront. It’s really that easy. Take a look at some youth boosters already established on Customized Girl:

Galaxy Softball

NightHawks Gear

D’Feeters Soccer

Kingwood Youth Ballet

Knock Cancer Out of The Park with Custom Apparel Storefronts

Baseball, custom apparel, and raising funds for charity? Sign me up!

Customized Girl has been working with the OCAO to launch a storefront to help raise funds for those who have been affected by ovarian cancer. What’s great about the OCAO is not only did they create a storefront to help raise funds for the cause but they customized special event shirts to help promote their event “Turn Huntington Park Teal.”  It’s a great OCAO event they hold every year with the Columbus Clippers (AAA baseball team, affiliate of the Cleveland Indians) to help spread ovarian cancer awareness. They also made sure to sequence their “Turn Huntington Park Teal” designs to rank at the top of their page leading up to the event to make sure customers could easily find and purchase shirts for the event.

Here are some great pictures of their custom designs and participants from the event:

It’s amazing what storefronts can help achieve for those raising funds and awareness for great causes. The OCAO had a design concept, created an account, and brought it to life on custom apparel. It’s that easy! Check out our article The Future of Fundraising: How Smart Non-Profits Like CADCA are Raising Funds with Custom Apparel Storefronts to learn more about what a storefront with Customized Girl can do for your charity.

Make sure to stop by OCAO’s storefront and see what great things they are accomplishing by helping spread ovarian cancer awareness.
