Before comparing platforms, many businesses start with a local print shop. Here's the problem:

• ✗ High minimums — most shops require 50-100+ pieces per design
• ✗ Thousands upfront — you're paying for inventory before selling a single item
• ✗ Sitting on inventory — unsold boxes in your back room or garage
• ✗ Limited selection — stuck with one color, one product, whatever they have in stock
• ✗ Never updated — your local shop isn't tracking apparel trends, seasons, or new styles
• ✗ You handle shipping — packing and mailing is on you

Bear Grips Pro Shops eliminates all of this. Zero inventory, zero minimums, zero upfront costs. We print and ship each order directly to your customer with free shipping. And we're constantly adding new products to keep your shop current with the latest styles and trends.
