Re-Energizing Teams, Building Culture, Driving Connection
The start of the year is more than just a return to the office — it’s a chance for companies to reconnect with their people, rebuild energy, and set the tone for the months ahead. As a decorator, you have the opportunity to position yourself as more than a supplier; you can be a strategic partner in helping HR leaders and corporate teams create merchandise that makes employees feel valued and inspired.
The Welcome Back Bundle is designed to spark ideas and show your customers what’s possible when corporate apparel goes beyond the basics. Each sample in this guide highlights not just a decoration technique, but a new way to think about employee engagement — from onboarding kits and wellness initiatives to all-hands retreats and milestone celebrations.
Use these pieces in your showroom or as part of a pitch to HR, corporate events, and internal marketing teams. The goal is simple: to help your customers see branded apparel not as a box to check, but as a tool to build culture, motivate teams, and make lasting impressions.
Walk the Idea Mile
Transfer: Howard Multi-Purpose
Included Blank: Port & Company® Core Cotton Tee PC54
Value: Howard Multi-Purpose transfers deliver crisp opacity and durability across any garment, while gang sheets give decorators the ability to maximize each order. This sample demonstrates how the same design can serve multiple placements — a bold full back graphic plus a detailed left chest imprint — without adding cost.
Pitch: A powerful conversation starter with corporate clients. Show them how a single artwork file can be stretched into multiple impressions, instantly increasing perceived value. Position it as an easy upsell: sleeve, back, and chest prints all come from the same sheet, giving companies more impact for their budget while helping you increase average order value.
Planting the Seeds for Success
Transfer: Vintage Wash
Suggested Blank: BELLA+CANVAS® Unisex 6-Ounce Heavyweight Tee BC3010
Value: Vintage Wash delivers a broken-in, retail look that feels instantly wearable. It transforms a simple event tee into something with staying power, giving companies merch that employees will keep long after the retreat ends.
Pitch: Ideal for HR teams planning wellness retreats or culture-building events. This sample shows how to go beyond a logo on a shirt — use design and finish to reinforce themes like growth and success, while providing employees with apparel they’ll actually be proud to wear.
The Tech Summit
Transfer: colorVIBE DTF
Suggested Blank: Port Authority® Wearever Signature Pique Polo K200
Value: colorVIBE DTF is unmatched for capturing sharp, intricate details in smaller logos and designs. This sample shows how even the finest lines and text elements reproduce cleanly, making it a reliable solution for corporate marks or event logos where brand accuracy is non-negotiable. In addition, colorVIBE DTF adheres well to a wide range of fabrics, giving decorators flexibility when faced with mixed garment orders.
Pitch: Ideal for corporate events, conferences, and smaller runs where variety and precision are key. Position DTF as the best option for low-volume orders with high standards — the kind of jobs where screen printing might be overkill, but quality still can’t be compromised. This makes it an easy way for decorators to say “yes” to projects they might otherwise turn away.
sparking ideas, fueling success
Transfer: Howard Multi-Purpose + Puff
Suggested Blank: Port & Company® Easy Cotton Tee PC43
Value: Combining Howard Multi-Purpose with Puff creates a layered effect that adds dimension and visual interest in a single-step application, without complicating production. The orange Puff flames in this design jump off the garment, creating a tactile statement piece that still applies as easily as a standard transfer. For decorators, the upgrade cost is minimal — but the perceived value to the client is significantly higher.
Pitch: A perfect demo piece to show HR and event planners that not all corporate merch has to look the same. By highlighting how a simple effect like Puff can elevate an otherwise standard design, you can pitch specialty finishes as an affordable way to wow employees and leave a lasting impression. Frame it as a small add-on with outsized impact — the kind of detail that makes an event shirt feel like a keepsake.
Linkon Corporate Logo
Transfer: colorVIBE Hybrid
Suggested Blank: Port Authority® Active 1/2-Zip Soft Shell Jacket J716
Value: colorVIBE Hybrid delivers the best of both worlds for corporate apparel — superior color output and opacity when compared to DTF, with the cost-effectiveness needed for larger runs. This sample shows off Hybrid’s ability to handle gradients and fine text details without losing clarity, making it the most reliable solution for technical fabrics like polos and performance wear.
Pitch: Corporate buyers often expect precision in branding and consistency across apparel types. Use this piece to demonstrate that you can deliver flawless results on technical fabrics, where embroidery or other decoration methods might fail. Position colorVIBE Hybrid as the smarter, more scalable solution compared to DTF when volume is high and brand integrity is critical.
50 Year Anniversary
Transfer: colorVIBE Hybrid
Suggested Blank: CS418 CornerStone® Select Lightweight Snag-Proof Polo
Value: colorVIBE Hybrid excels at reproducing gradients and specialty effects, like faux metallics, with a clean, polished finish. This anniversary design highlights how Hybrid can deliver a premium look that feels elevated — without the added cost or complexity of specialty inks. It’s built for high-volume runs where consistency and efficiency are critical.
Pitch: Anniversaries are milestone moments, and companies often want to celebrate them with keepsake apparel for their entire workforce. This is the perfect opportunity to pitch Hybrid as the ideal solution: cost-effective at scale, visually impressive, and brand-accurate. By showing this sample, decorators can position themselves as the go-to partner for corporate celebrations and employee recognition events.
HD Luxury
Transfer: Howard Multi-Purpose (Shimmer)
Suggested Blank: DT1106 District® Perfect Weight® Fleece Crew
Value: Shimmer inks add a subtle metallic finish that elevates a standard logo into something more premium and eye-catching. By using Silver and Gold Shimmer together, this sample demonstrates how decorators can create a luxury look with no additional upcharge. It’s a powerful way to give customers a high-value effect without increasing production cost.
Pitch: Perfect for industries that want to project strength, stability, and professionalism — like building, renovation, or real estate services. Present Shimmer as a luxury upgrade at no extra cost, giving customers a reason to choose your shop over competitors. In a showroom, this sample instantly communicates that you can deliver more than the “basic print” — you can deliver polish and prestige.
Yield Corporate Logo
Transfer: colorVIBE DTF
Suggested Blank: Sport-Tek® Posi-UV® Pro Polo – Deep Navy
Value: colorVIBE DTF excels at complex artwork with gradients and fine detail, allowing decorators to reproduce corporate branding with perfect accuracy. By showing both a left-chest logo and a secondary sleeve/hem placement, this sample highlights the versatility and polish that modern clients expect from corporate apparel.
Pitch: This is your proof piece for HR and corporate buyers. It demonstrates not only that you can match their brand standards with precision, but also that you can expand the value of a single design across multiple placements. By positioning it as a gang sheet solution, you can sell customers on the idea of maximizing one artwork file for multiple logo locations — boosting perceived value and opening the door to profitable upsells (like sleeve logos, hem tags, or even inside neck labels).
Property Expo
Transfer: colorVIBE Hybrid
Suggested Blank: Port Authority® Silk Touch™ Polo K500
Value: Hybrid technology combines crisp, vibrant color with smooth gradients, making it the perfect choice for event branding. The ability to handle multiple colors and gradients with ease makes this a cost-effective solution for large runs. At scale, Hybrid delivers consistent quality at a lower price point than DTF, while maintaining the high-impact look today’s event planners expect.
Pitch: An excellent option to pitch to expo coordinators, conferences, or corporate events with big attendee counts. The left chest placement keeps the look professional, while the detailed logo and event date highlight the ability to deliver sharp, on-brand decoration for large orders. Position it as the smart choice for events where cost, consistency, and speed all matter.
Community Sponsors
Transfer: Howard Multi-Purpose
Suggested Blank: 64400 Gildan Softstyle® Long Sleeve T-Shirt
Value: Howard Multi-Purpose plastisol transfers can handle extremely fine detail while maintaining the durability and feel of traditional screen printing. This makes them ideal for complex sponsor layouts where multiple logos need to share one placement. With one sheet, decorators can reproduce even small, intricate logos with clarity and confidence.
Pitch: A must-have for events supported by local businesses or community partners. These sponsor backs are often fundraising gold — but managing the artwork can be a headache. Use this sample to highlight that you can not only deliver clean, professional sponsor prints, but that your art team (our art team) can vectorize low-resolution logos and arrange them into finished designs at a low cost. It positions you as a full-service partner who makes fundraising apparel easy, not stressful.
Reconnecting People, Strengthening Culture
The Welcome Back Bundle was built around one big idea: when people feel connected to their workplace, they perform better, collaborate more, and stay longer. Decorators have a unique opportunity to help companies nurture that connection through thoughtful, well-executed apparel.
Each piece in this collection is more than decoration—it’s a story about pride, belonging, and identity. Whether it’s a custom retreat tee that becomes a memory or a polished polo that employees wear with confidence, these designs remind your customers that great merch builds great culture.
Use this bundle as your roadmap to approach HR teams, event planners, and corporate marketing departments with solutions that look professional, feel premium, and reinforce their company values.
Because when you help your customers welcome their teams back in style, you’re not just decorating shirts—you’re helping build stronger workplaces.
