How much can I make producing and selling custom photo transfers?
Our current pricing structure assumes producing 40 transfers per hour. Assuming that average production rate, we try to target about $75/hour in the form of garment mark up and time. Since you set your own pricing structure, you can adjust that figure up or down. By adding the cost to print an 8 1/2 by 11 transfer ($1.10) to the time (3 minutes including time to fold the garment), we price a $1.20 white Jerzees 50/50 t-shirt at $5.95 when sold in quantity of 60. Our time and mark up earnings are about $3.65/shirt, or about $73/hour, which is about our $75 per hour target. Not a bad profit for 3 hours effort.
