Please find some links and notes from the 2 Regular Guys Podcast. Jeff Lavin from One Off Apparel joins us to talk about DTG, Screen Printing and Mixed Media Designs. Jeff has a story many of us recognize, starting off in his parent’s basement, making some beer money in college and falling in love with garment decorating. He has grown his business from the basement to a woodshed to a commercial building in West Boylston, Massechesuts. He now does work for the New England Patriots, Boston Celtics, Boston Bruins and Boston Red Sox plus he has found his sweet spot in mix media and also 500 to 5,000 piece orders. He shares with us a ton of great tips on how mixed media can fit into your shop, where he sees the market heading and how to grow your business from the basement to reality. He is a guy you want to root for as he is a super person and someone to emulate.
