Field Day T-shirts- Zimmzang School Store FAQ

Question:  Do I have to create a web page myself to sell Field Day T-shirts?
Answer:  No.  The design team at Zimmzang creates your schools unique Field Day T-shirt page, and offers Field Day T-shirt ideas.  The Field Day T-shirt web page is then hosted on the Zimmzang Ecommerce web site.  It can be up and "live" in one day!  Sales can begin as soon as your Field Day T-shirt design is completed.  No web page knowledge or experience is required.  Our design team does it all, quickly and with absolutely no hidden charges. The agreed upon cost of each shirt is all that you pay.

Question:  How do I create a Field Day T-shirt design?
Answer:  Our young, talented group of designers will assist you in developing your design, and offer Field Day T-shirt ideas.  The design team will build on your theme ideas, and offer new theme ideas if you would like. 

Question:  What are some good themes for Field Day?
Answer:  Many of the themes our design team has worked with comes from the creativity of the teachers and students of the school.  Themes are based on mascots and slogans of the schools.  Themes are also based on the desired message that the Field Day is projecting, i.e.,  fitness, community involvement, achievement, teamwork, environment, and most of all fun for the students and staff.  In addition, situational or current events may foster a Field Day idea for a theme, i.e., the school is in the process of moving or expanding (mascot in a construction helmet), or "going green" by not using any "paper" in the ordering process.

Question:  How can I make ordering Field Day T-shirts easy?
Answer:  Look into using the Zimmzang.com "school store".  Zimmzang will host your schools  ordering web page on their Ecommerce web site.  After your Field Day T-shirt is designed, it is posted to your schools web page on the Zimmzang Ecommerce site.  Parents can order their child's Field Day T-shirt at their convenience, using any major credit card.  Zimmzang compiles the order, fulfills the order, sorts by teacher (if this service is requested - additional charge), and ships to your school.  No need to do receipts. No checks or cash to collect.  No trips to the bank to deposit.  No bad checks and embarrassing follow ups.  If the Field Day T-shirt is priced by the school for profit, Zimmzang mails a check to you!  Many schools use these profit funds for PE equipment and for other school supplies or events.

Question:  How can I avoid the hassle of hundreds of checks and receipts, not to mention cash handling when processing Field Day T-shirts?
Answer:  Let Zimmzang do it for you!  All orders will be processed "on-line" with parents using any major credit card.  Never waste the time and energy by having to do hundreds of receipts again!  No cash to worry about.  No trips to the bank for deposits. No balancing issues.  Zimmzang will also process "manual" paper orders from a school, however, we highly recommend the school going 100% green and paperless!  Discounts for 100% paperless ordering will apply.

Question:  How can I make distribution of the Field Day T-shirts to students easy?
Answer:  Zimmzang's ordering process allows for easy sorting at our facility.  Each teacher/class will have their Field Day T-shirts sorted to a bag, that will include a "check off" manifest.  Boxes of Field Day T-shirts will be shipped to each school.  Zimmzang attempts to ship by class (i.e. all 1st Grade individual teacher bags in the same box. 2nd grade the same, etc).

Question:  How can I make it easy for parents to order Field Day T-shirts?
Answer:  The easiest way to make it easy for parents to order Field Day T-shirts, is allowing them the ease of ordering "on-line".  Zimmzang has experience in processing 100% of schools Field Day orders.  Parents have given us great feedback on how they enjoy being able to use a credit card to purchase on-line (before they forget to send a check with their child!), but also the ability to "preview" the shirt on line.

Question:  Can parents use a credit card online to order Field Day T-shirts?
Answer:  Yes, Zimmzang accepts debit/credit cards, Visa, Master Card and American Express.

Question:  How can I increase sales of the Field Day T-shirts?
Answer:  The best way to increase sales and participation in the Field Day T-shirts, is to make it as easy as possible to order.  Using a credit card to order on-line is the answer.  In addition, the ability of parents to "view" the Field Day T-shirts on-line can dramatically increase sales.  Zimmzang has received feedback of overwhelming parent participation AND parents ordering Field Day T-shirts for themselves, to show support for the school and for their child, when given the chance to use a credit card on-line.

Question:  Can I use the sale of Field Day T-shirts as a fund raiser for my school?
Answer:  Yes, many schools do use the sale of Field Day T-shirts as a source of funding.  Due to the efficiency of utilizing the Zimmzang School store, teachers are able to reasonable price the T-shirts. Many teachers have shared with us that being able to price the Field Day T-shirts fairly, there is room for the school to make a profit.  As we all know, being able to have some extra funds in these tight fiscal times is a big help in buying additional P.E. equipment or  other needed school supplies.

Question:  How much will this cost?
Answer:  The total price of the shirt will vary, due to number of imprint colors required, if imprint is required on the front and back of the shirt, amount of design needed, and projected quantity ordered.  However, the price per shirt agreed upon, is the total cost.  There are no additional "hosting" charges, site charges, shipping charges etc.  You will know very clearly what price per shirt you are agreeing to, before the process begins.  Again, there are absolutely no "hidden" charges.
