CORPORATE VISION / Canadian Business Awards 2020 11 , Dec19045 Custom T-Shirt Printing Company of the Year 2020 GetBOLD is a dedicated clothing decorator, providing screen printing and embroidery to clients across Canadawho require uniforms, corporate wear and personalised clothing. For the second year in a row, GetBOLD is being awarded the title, CustomT-Shirt Printing Company of the Year (2019 and 2020). We invited company founder, MatthewPierrot, to showcase the firmand how it provides its clients with creative, quality solutions that will meet their needs. GetBOLD puts customer’s logos on t-shirts, sweatshirts, headwear and so much more. Founder and owner, Matthew Pierrot, explains how GetBOLD works with every client to ensure they get the best possible outcome with their product. “All of staff are thoroughly trained in all the ways we can decorate a garment. We do our best with every customer to recommend appropriate adjustments or enhancements that will make the final product the best it could possibly be. When you understand your medium, you can properly assemble the best artistic outcome. Often, our client’s logos have been designed to look great on the top corner of a piece of paper, or on a website, but not on a piece of clothing. In some cases, a little expertise can move the final product from pretty good to great. “Drawing on our expertise, we work alongside our clients to help them better understand the capabilities of their art. If the art doesn’t translate well to print or embroidery, we explain why and find solutions. Sometimes it’s just the smallest adjustment that makes the completed project so much better. This way the client receives the product they want, and we continue to produce top quality prints and embroidery.” The firm’s clients receive a truly unique service that cannot be found elsewhere. Of course, none of this would be possible without a dedicated team of visionary, experienced staff. As such, Matthew is understandably keen to highlight how his company works to ensure staff always feel safe and supported so that they are motivated to give customers amazing service. “As a business, GetBOLD works hard to create an environment where our team members have opportunities to grow and feel welcomed, safe, and valued. A large percentage of our workers are immigrants, and their arrival to a new country can be alienating and finding meaningful work can be difficult. We try to give them a stable place where they can flourish and, ultimately, we benefit from their talents. “To offer them the support they need, we spend a lot of time training people and we almost always promote from within. We participate in trade shows annually, sending a delegation of GetBOLD team members to learn and research the latest trends. Also, we have developed systems, training manuals, and written procedures to help our team remain at the forefront of emerging market developments. These tools also ensure that we can provide our clients with the best support and highest possible standard of service.” Seeking to build upon its already impressive success, GetBOLD has exciting plans for the future, some of which are already in motion, as Matthew highlights in his concluding comments. “Last year GetBOLD has launched a store program for schools and groups on our website. We create a specific store with clothing for a school or event where attendees can shop online for a designated time period, depending on the customers’ intended due date. Once their store closes, we create the items. The items are then delivered, organized, and bagged by individual customer order. “Our store system has been a great success right out of the gate. Word of mouth advertising from school to school has kept us quite busy from the moment it launched. When teachers or volunteers learn that they can sell school spirit wear without dealing with any of the organizing or packaging they are quite excited. When it becomes about ideas, not logistics, it really gets people excited!” Contact Details Company: GetBOLD - Bold Merchandise Web Address: www.getbold.com
