What can you get before paying?

A Birth Day - Threadless, Best T-shirts Ever

While other companies are slashing prices to kill their competitors, what are Jake Nickell and Jacob Dehart at Threadless doing in their design and T-shirt business to stay afloat?

They find ways to give and keep giving so that you will return for more. At time of writing this article, these are what they are offering:

1) Submit a slogan on their website and you get a chance to win USD200.00.
2) Submit an idea and stand to gain USD2,500.00
3) Each time your design gets reprinted, you gain USD500.00
4) Buy Threadless tee and submit a photo of yourself wearing it to win 10 points=USD15=1 Tee if your photo is picked.

They pick high scoring designs every week from the archives to print, so, there is no stopping you from submitting your ideas whenever you are so inspired.

Not artistically inclined or words savvy? Then be a member to their newsletters and be amused by entries of the artful hopeful. Take time to email your friends the designs you think they may appreciate and stand to earn USD3.00 in points each time they make a purchase. There is also a chance for you to earn 2 StreetTeam points when you link Threadless to any of your blogs and refer a sale.

Want me to be your customer? Make me feel that I am getting more than what I have paid for. Better yet. What can I get from you before I make any purchase?

I hope to win myself one and have been posting slogans. Have you posted any slogans or designs? Any favourite artists you lean towards?

Actually, just having a picture posted doesn't automatically earn you 10 points/$15/1 tee. Most picture submissions will only earn you 1 point = $1.50. Just fyi.
