Shipping from A to Z
Hey everyone!
I wanted to post the detailed process of how the product goes from my tee, to bag and everything in between.
First is the making sure it is folded, I actually have something to help me fold all the shirts, make sure they are uniform, neat, and can fit into the black poly mailer.
Next, I grab the tagging gun that I use to do my hang tags. It’s another way to help brand Discreetly Greek. Instead of being a static nalia company, I am striving to lean more toward the fashion/retail look of the apparel.
After the tagging, it’s time to pop into the mailers. I use a black poly self seal mailer. They have a cool little perforated area that allows customers to rip the package open easily. (That’s what she said)
I use Black mailers, to go with the “DISCREETLY” theme of the company. I plan on printing on them, and maybe doing custom boxes or mailers, but for now these work perfectly. I can fit up to three shirts usually without any problems.
I also make sure that, every order gets a personal pick of some candy. I try to get the Laffy Taffy to match the colors of the product. If it’s a Kappa or Delta shirt, I will send the cherry, or Alphas receive banana flavor etc.
It’s another fun way to help people remember me, and my company. It’s also a wacky way for me to say thank you to to the customer!
I then weigh everything so I can print the labels at home. It saves a HUGE amount of time not having to wait in the line at the post office. It’s funny seeing people in line mad when I pop in, leave my packages with the cashier, and roll out! Some of the workers, actually know me by now and once in a while well say hey or “nice orders today”!
Print the postage!
Attach the shipping label, and send it away to another happy customer!
Hope you enjoyed a little glimpse into Discreetly Greek HQ!
