Your Embroidered Logo : Correct Logo Size?

Your manager wants you to order embroidered business shirts. Your company recently had a new logo designed by a graphic designer. You pick an embroidery company and email them your logo specifications packet. They respond by saying that the requested size for the logo is too small for embroidery. What do you do? Look for another embroiderer?

You can check out other embroiderers but if you’ve already decided on a particular embroidery company then you may want to ask them why the sizing is too small and what size they suggest.  If they say the smaller size won’t embroider well and your design must be larger to be readable than what if they are right? What should you do? You want to follow the directions specified by the graphic designer but what if your logo isn’t readable when embroidered at that size?

Ask your embroiderer to send you two embroidered samples, one that adheres to the graphic designer's specifications and a larger version that meets your embroiderer's standards. You can request either embroidered swatches or shirts. Have your manager compare both sizes so they can make a decision. Then you can order your shirts knowing that your embroidered logo will be sized correctly.
