Chisholm Trail Road Under Construction

noreply@blogger.com (RockSports) — Thu, 10 Jan 2013 21:57:00 +0000

For those who are venturing to our Main Office off of Chisholm Trail Road you will notice a big detour sign and a road closure stating the road will be closed until May.

For now you can drive right past the detour sign and you will still see us on the right.

Now if you are taking the 1431 exit and trying to go the other side of Chisholm, that road is completely closed.

So in order to get to our Main office you will need to take the 79 Exit off of I-35 and turn right onto Chisholm Trail.

If you need help getting here you're more than welcome to call us at 512-218-9913.

Thanks,
RockSports

Digital Printing at RockSports

noreply@blogger.com (rocksports) — Wed, 20 Apr 2011 16:10:00 +0000

The Digital Printing Process for dark garments involves a pre-treatment of the garment, so that the white ink will sit on top of the shirt. The pre-treatment must be dried via the heat press. You then get your artwork ready and send it to the printer. You then print your design. Finally, you cure the ink by heat pressing the shirt again.

To design your own shirt and order it today, please visit http://www.rockapparelshop.com or http://www.rocksports.net.

Dedication to longevity, transparency, and fair pricing

noreply@blogger.com (rocksports) — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 20:00:00 +0000

RockSports will be turning 20 years old this year. We want to thank all of our customers for their loyalty to our business. Many people know that RockSports is a family business. Whether blood related or not, we treat all of our employees and customers like family. We value traditional principles of hard work, transparency, and loyalty. Great achievement requires great leadership and a commitment to providing customer satisfaction. To stay true to our beliefs, this post is about an inevitable price increase.

Prices are going up!?!
The past year has been difficult on the screen printing industry and small businesses in general. In the last year prices from our garment suppliers were raised six different times! As a total, we have seen costs rise over 40%! In 2010 we tried to keep our prices down and bear the burden of the rising garment costs. Unfortunately, over the long term, this strategy is not going to be prudent for our business or our customers.

Who does this effect?
Everyone, with exception to the contracted bid prices - RRISD, Leader ISD, and Hutto ISD.

Why is all this happening?
Our analysis brought back four different reasons:

The price of cotton
The price of oil/transportation (yes - a common scapegoat)
Natural Disasters to Textile providers (Haiti in particular)
Labor Markets (email me if you would like some articles)

Another interesting read:
http://money.cnn.com/2010/09/09/news/economy/cotton_shortage_could_inflate_clothing_prices/index.htm

What this means to our customers:
Many of our customers have been with us for years and have annually ordered similar products. This year, your price will be a little higher. We want to tell you now so that you can budget accordingly. We are also stepping up our cost savings efforts. We are looking to push more of our business online to increase order efficiency. We also want you to know that we will continue to offer the best, fair prices, regardless the outlook of the future economy.

We are listening to you! If you have any comments or any recommendations, then please email us or comment on this blog post.

Design Your Own T-Shirt Online

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 16:54:00 +0000

At RockSports, our goal is to give our customers the best experience when shopping for decorated apparel. One of the best ways we have improved our screen printing and embroidery services is by improving our technology. We've experienced a lot of success with our Online Apparel Stores (now called Rock Apparel Shops), which give our customers the ability to sell their products online easily. This year we are unveiling our new online t-shirt designer.

Have you ever wanted to design a custom t-shirt and order it online? RockSports brings you the convenience of ordering custom t-shirts online coupled with the dependability of professional, local printing.

How can we offer low minimums. It is simple, we use the latest technology. Direct-to-garment printing has come a long way in the last five years. We are now seeing water-based, screen printing-like quality from a digital printing machine. RockSports employs this technology for any www.rockapparelshop.com order.

Here is a quick tutorial on how to design your own t-shirt online:

Step 1: Visit this address (http://rocksports.deco-apparel.com/home/create) or www.rockapparelshop.com and click on the 'Design' link at the top of the page and choose your garment.

Step 2: Choose your garment color and select 'Printing' or 'Embroidery' from the links on the right.

Step 3: Select whether you would like to add text or a design. You can add either or both, just choose which one you would like to begin with.

Step 4: Choose your design from our wide selection of graphics or upload your own and enter your text in the provided field.

Step 5: Adjust the alignment, size, and any text effects you have applied and when you're satisfied with your t-shirt design click the 'Add to Cart' button on the right hand side.

Step 6: Once your t-shirt is in your cart, you can create another shirt or go ahead and check-out.

Step 7: Finally, proceed through our easy to use and secure check out system and in just a few shirt steps, your order process is complete.

Now that you know the process and just how easy it is to design and order your own custom t-shirt, give it a try today.

**Note: for dark garments, in quantities less than 6, we use a heat press decal to apply to your shirt. This may change soon!

Sorry for being away for so long! Though we have been silent, we have not been idle. In fact, our latest project is ready for all the world to see. We are proud to announce our newest product - www.rockapparelshop.com. Rock Apparel Shop is really not a product, but more like a fulfillment center.

Create a shirt - Ever think, "I have a great idea for a t-shirt!" Well, now you can prove it. Rock Apparel Shop allows you to create your own t-shirt design, put your created design on the garment of your choice, and then build your own online store to sell designed product. As you create the shirt

Sell your product/Ideas - Think corporate apparel, rock band merchandise, sports fan wear, or booster club merchandise. Create your own online store through Rock Apparel Shop and start making money. What is the cost? As for now, it is free if you are willing to do a little bit of set-up work.

Doesn't RockSports have an online designer? Yes! But, not like this. This one has thousands of high resolution clip art images. You can also upload your own artwork. It is also integrated with our production machines. That means quicker turn-around-times for our customers.

Rock Apparel Shop is still in its infancy and we will continue to show its potential with your help. How can you help? Create designs, build a store, sell products, and give us your feedback!

Round Rock Youth Baseball

noreply@blogger.com (rocksports) — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 19:37:00 +0000

Baseball is huge in Central Texas and for a good reason. Round Rock has produced some serious talent, including the likes of several local legends playing in the big leagues. Round Rock is also home to our good friends at the Dell Diamond, the Round Rock Express. At RockSports we take a small part in the action by providing custom baseball jerseys and by adding names and numbers to jerseys and hats.

We are starting to get several teams coming in to add on names and numbers. I thought it would be good to show an example and give pricing here in case your team needs to customize its jerseys.

Heat press names are $6.00 per jersey. Embroidered names on caps are $6.00 per jersey.

To order custom jerseys or to add names and numbers to your existing jerseys give us a call at 512-249-9695.

Based on the feedback from our customers, last year RockSports opened a second location in the Cedar Park area. Our goal is to provide professional screen printing and embroidery services at a convenient destination for schools, sports teams, and businesses in the NW Austin, Cedar Park, and Leander area.

Our first priority was to reach out to the schools in the area to offer the same screen printing and embroidery services we have offered to RRISD. Today we were given confirmation that we are an approved vendor for custom apparel screen printing or embroidery services for Leander ISD affiliated organization.

If you need school T-shirts or staff polos, or perhaps your booster club would like to get custom apparel, then give us a call at 512-249-9695.
