Getting started is simple:

1. Fill out the account form
2. Pay the setup fee once invoiced
3. Choose products from our supplier catalog
4. Meet with our designer to discuss designs
5. Approve your proofs and storefront details
6. Go live & post to socials

Once everything is approved, we will launch your custom storefront through The Lakes Print Shop.

Once your products are chosen, we will schedule a meeting with your team to discuss design options and storefront setup.

During this meeting, we will review your selected items, design placement, decal options, product locations, and pricing. We will also help adjust the collection as needed so everything makes sense for your brand, audience, and overall goal.

We recommend being mindful of higher-priced items. Some products may have a higher base cost, which can make the final storefront price higher once your profit amount is added.

You can choose up to 25 products from our catalog for your custom storefront to start.

Products may include shirts, hats, cups, bags, and other custom items depending on your needs and product availability.

Your custom storefront can also grow with your business, team, organization, or fundraiser. Additional products can be added later if needed, especially if you have a new season, fundraiser, special event, team order, or additional collection you want to offer.

Additional product setup, design work, or pricing updates may require an added setup or design fee depending on what is needed.

If you already have a logo or artwork, please provide it in a high-quality file format such as PNG, SVG, or Illustrator file.

If your artwork needs to be cleaned up, adjusted, or prepared for products, basic rendering/design setup starts at $25.

If you need full branding support, logo creation, or a more custom design package, branding services start at $250.

We will go over what you need during the setup process and help guide you toward the best option for your storefront.

We will create a product spreadsheet for your storefront that includes your selected products, base product pricing, and the final storefront price with your added profit amount.

Most storefront products usually get upcharged between $5–$10 per item, depending on the product. However, the final upcharge amount is entirely up to you and will be reviewed before your storefront goes live.

Yes. Before your storefront is published, you will receive product proofs and a pricing spreadsheet to review.

Final designs, product details, and pricing must be approved before we launch your storefront.

Once everything is approved, your storefront will be published on The Lakes Print Shop website.

You will receive a direct link to share with your customers, supporters, employees, team members, or community.

We will also create a social media post for you that includes a QR code linked directly to your storefront.

Yes. Upon request, we can provide a PDF or printable order form for your storefront.

This can be helpful for in-person events, team orders, school groups, fundraisers, or anyone who wants a paper option.

Customers will place their orders directly through your storefront on The Lakes Print Shop website.

The Lakes Print Shop handles the online ordering process, payment collection, and order details, so you do not have to collect individual orders yourself.

Pickup, local delivery within a certain mile range, and shipping options will all be offered for storefront orders.

All custom storefronts include a built-in profit or fundraising amount for each product sold.

Your payout will be calculated based on the approved upcharge amount listed in your product spreadsheet. This means every product in your storefront will have a set profit amount built into the final storefront price.

Profit payouts are issued on the first business day of the new month for any products sold during the previous month.

For example, if products from your storefront are sold in June, your payout would be issued on the first business day of July.

Yes. There is a $250 setup fee to get started.

Payment must be received before we move forward with product selection, design setup, mockups, proofs, or building your storefront.
