Another Ordering Update
almost 4 years ago – Wed, Jun 24, 2020 at 07:29:53 PM

SKETCHBOOKS - Continue to be in redesign mode.  Will send update when I have it along with some sneak peaks at new pages!  Printer says turn around only 5 days from proof approval. 

NOTEBOOKS are in the mail and will likely be here next week!

PEN design proof is back and approved.  Should be here mid July

DRAWSTRING BAG proof also in and approved

USB 8GB SWING drives ordered on a promo that was 70% off so YAY!  Makes me feel better about upgrading the notebooks and backpacks.  Imprint on that is similar to the pen (above).

NEXUS FACE T - Sending in a sample of our last print run to ensure new print run is acceptable.

NEXUS 2020 FULL COLOR DESIGN: CHALLENGE CONTINUES

I was going to place the full order with Same Day Tees, but they're attitude seems to be that my $3,000 order is annoying them so I'm getting quotes elsewhere even though I was really excited about seeing what their "Digital Squeegee" process was all about.

I have quotes out with 2 vendors.  1 has already told me they need to switch to 100% cotton and gave me quotes on Gildan.  I know there are a few of you that really don't like that company so I've asked for different brands.  Biggest challenge is that orders for 4-6X Tees.  

CHALLENGE COIN - Ordered from The Studio who was having a sale for Father's Day as well, but they were offline and I already had a quote and design proof going so I screwed them up.  Slight delay while they work out the technical order glitch on their side.  My fault, but still well on track for August so it's all good in the end.

PRINTS - Total turn around on this is 2 weeks so putting it on back burner for now.  Designs are done and ready to submit.  

REMINDER: If you need to change your address you can do so at http://rude2020skb.backerkit.com and if you decide to add anything to your order just email me.  Please do not place a 2nd order.  I am going through order comments as I am able, but aside from those that ordered sketchbooks I probably won't see them until we are packing your order.

I you have a MAILED level and have not completed your survey please do so TODAY.    Everyone with a mailed level who completes the survey by today will have a set of postcards and a large sticker added to their package! 

Just wanted to give you a little heads up that we plan to charge  cards for add-on items you purchased or any additional funds you may owe  through BackerKit tomorrow, June 16th. Make sure that you have the  correct card information on file. If any issues arise with your payment  you’ll receive an email letting your know to correct your payment  information.

If you need to review payment information, you can return to your  survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your  survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at  https://rude2020skb.backerkit.com.

I need counts on sketchbooks, extras, and shirts so if you do not complete your survey by tonight you will be limited on what you are able to order. I'm down to just 45 people that have not completed the survey so overall great job guys!

If you haven't completed your survey do it now!
