Podcast 66: Ordering Your Sports Banner

We work with a lot of sports teams and one of our top products is a Senor Sports Banner. Whether it’s at the stadium, gym or arena they can really pop and also make for added touch in both team motivation and athlete support.

Working with a lot of teams, I want to share a few tips in the process. This can make the process easier, less stressful and avoid any last minute rushing.

Here are a few steps to get the process going for your sports banner search.

• Find a photographer: Look for a photographer who specializes in sports photography. Ask for recommendations from friends, search online for local photographers, and check their portfolios to see if their style matches what you're looking for.

• Discuss your needs: Once you've found a photographer, discuss your needs with them. Let them know you want to order a sports banner and what you want to include in the design. Provide any logos you want to include.

• Schedule to have the photos taken with the photographer you want to have the images done. Be sure to plan ahead as the more popular photographers book out before the seasons start and may not be able to get the desired completion done.

• Once the images are ready to preview, select the desired number of images via the proofing through the photographer. Once you've agreed on the design with the sports banner provider, review it to make sure everything is correct. .

• Once the order is complete, wait for the drop shipment and then hang the banner:

This is a broad approach but the process needs to be planned out in advance, since the process can take a bit of time from appointment booking, photographing the athletes, image creation, proof viewing and ordering the final copy.

Most of the time, last minute waiting won’t result in the desired timeframe that you’re wanting.
