Common questions from Cincinnati buyers
How fast can you turn an order around for a Cincinnati event?
It depends on the item. Production time comes from the supplier and is published on each product, then restated in your quote for the exact item, quantity, and decoration you picked - ground transit into the Cincinnati metro is on top of that. Rush production is available. Flag your event date when you request the quote and we'll work backward from it and tell you what's realistic.
Can you drop-ship to multiple addresses across the Cincinnati metro?
Yes. We routinely split orders to many ship-to addresses - employees' home addresses for hybrid teams, attendee addresses for direct-mail swag campaigns, multi-location franchises across Mason, West Chester, Blue Ash and beyond. One PO, one invoice, individual shipments.
Do you charge Ohio sales tax?
We charge Ohio sales tax where required. If your organization is tax-exempt, send us your OH resale or exemption certificate up front and we'll mark the account exempt for every future order.
What's the minimum order size?
Most decorated apparel and hard-goods start at 12-24 pieces, depending on the decoration method. Lower-minimum options exist for sample runs and prototype decoration.
Can we get a free art proof before we commit?
Yes. Every quote we send includes a free art mockup so you see exactly what the finished piece will look like before any production starts.
Do you handle co-branded merch with our partners or sponsors?
Yes - dual-logo embroidery, multi-color screen prints, and split-shipment-to-each-partner workflows are routine, especially for Cincinnati-area sponsorships, sports tournaments, and joint marketing campaigns.
