By all accounts, 2011 has been a banner year for LVAC. My working hours have been longer and more consistent than ever before. I've had the opportunity to work with tons of new customers and put my efforts behind a slew of very exciting projects. I love what I do and I'm immensely grateful to every person who has allowed me to live this dream. Unfortunately, the past few years also brought along with them some serious increases in my overhead - the skyrocketing cost of cotton has driven blank garments up by 30% or more in many cases, my primary ink manufacturer has raised their prices 5-10% across the board, and high fuel costs means that shipping anything anywhere costs that much more. I know that none of us are millionaires - heck, half of my customers are charities and non-profit groups! - so I've always tried to maintain the lowest possible pricing for my customers. Unfortunately, after absorbing all those increases over the past two years, I have no choice but to finally adjust my prices to reflect my ever increasing overhead. If you've gotten a job quoted in the past month or so, don't sweat, I'll honor the price I gave you. Watch the website for some new special packages that will run for the first few months of 2012. Ideally, those will help us all ease into the new prices with some of our projects.
In addition to the new pricing, we also took the time to add a few new pics to the portfolio page, if you'd like to check out some of the cooler products that have been coming out of these humble surroundings as of late.
Thanks to all of you for the unbelievable support you've given LVAC for the past few years. I'm excited to see what the next few hold for us!
As always, if you've got any questions/ideas/opinions/etc, don't hesitate to get in touch via phone or email.
