Featured Startup Pitch: UltraPress – Guaranteed lowest price on your custom apparel

COMPANY: UltraPress

ELEVATOR PITCH

The best place to order your custom apparel – guaranteed lowest prices and free 4 business day shipping.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

When we first set out in the custom apparel industry, we couldn’t understand why there were so many differences in pricing amongst various online retailers and local print shops when vendors are ordering the same blank garments and using the same inks and printing processes. At UltraPress, we keep our costs low through volume, and transfer those savings onto the customer. Every single blank product on UltraPress is labeled with a price, so you know exactly what the differences are between a Gildan and an American Apparel shirt. Each order comes with all-inclusive pricing, and we never hide any additional fees at the end. Best of all, with our Guaranteed Lowest Pricing, if you send us a competitor’s pricing invoice that’s lower than ours, we’ll beat it by 5%.

4 Business Day Shipping Comes Standard

UltraPress has built one of the most extensive printing networks in the United States. Our production facilities are within a one business day ground shipment from any customer in the continental U.S. We’re now able to deliver your custom apparel in the quickest possible turnaround time without incurring any extra fees, whereas most competitors take up to 2 weeks standard, and then charge an additional 25% for rush. At UltraPress, you can have both the best prices AND the fastest standard turnaround times in the country.

High-Quality Customer Service

UltraPress prides itself on delivering the highest quality product with the best customer service so that customers can order with confidence and have 100% satisfaction with their experience. Due to the human touch of customized goods, mistakes can happen. Our promise is if issues do arise with your order, we will do whatever it takes to resolve the situation fairly.

Our team of custom apparel professionals is there to answer any of your questions, including design help and product selection. Call us at 888 740 8701 between 8am and 6pm PST, or shoot us an email at help@ultrapress.com anytime.

FOUNDERS’ STORY  

Back in 2004, two brothers bought a screenprinting machine on Craigslist for $3000 and set up shop in their parents’ garage. As we headed off to college, we started printing for student organizations at major universities across the U.S. What started as a fun creative hobby turned into a business that helped pay for our tuition. Fast forward several years later, UltraPress has helped hundreds of thousands of people with their custom apparel needs. Our team is made up of seasoned screenprinting and promotional goods professionals, innovative web developers, and a ‘whatever-it-takes’ mentality that always puts the customer first.
