Josh Grahl and his team at National Screen Print & Promo are a real life example of screen printing success. Since his humble start, printing in his parent's basement, his business has grown to encompass three manual presses and an automatic screen printing press operating out of a large warehouse. He intimately knows the struggles and challenges of a growing screen printer, and students of this screen printing class will receive both technical knowledge about screen printing and real life guidance for turning your passion into a business. Attend this class to pick their brains about the industry, marketing advice, business organization and integration, sales tactics and more. This class is right for anyone passionate about starting or growing their own screen printing business.
Meet your instructor! - Josh Grahl
Josh started his wild journey into screen printing in 2011, when he fell in love with the music industry and decided to create his own music-inspired clothing line. He began with a simple search online and started printing in his parent's basement with a single station, four color press and starter kit, purchased through Ryonet. While his artistic side instantly fell in love with the process of screen printing, his ambition and entrepreneurial mindset realized the enormous business possibilities available to those who screen print with a passion for growth. Now he is the proud owner of National Screen Print & Promo, an automatic and multiple manual screen printing shop producing thousands of garments per shift. "We look forward to creating lifelong relationships with all screen printers, and we are excited to help them pursue this creative, artistic, and lucrative industry."
