Heat Print On Demand has taken the print industry by storm in recent years and shows no signs of slowing down. Allowing you to print only when the customer order is confirmed, you'll save time and money by not pre-printing garments and avoiding wasted stock.

During this Global Masterclass session, Josh Ellsworth, Ben Carroll, and Martin Borley discuss exactly that. Regardless of your customer base and apparel niche, Heat Print On Demand can benefit your business.

But what it forces business owners to do is to assess their values and make a decision on what their business stands for. Consumer trends are changing fast and buyers are moving away from fast fashion and towards a better environment for their future.
