Creating Carthage-branded Merchandise
Are you looking to create Carthage-branded T-shirts, tote bags, stickers, pens, or another swag item?
Mar-Comm governs the use of all Carthage College logos and brand elements. All materials that include the Carthage College and/or Carthage Athletics logos must be approved by our office before production. Please contact us before ordering your own materials, to avoid paying for items that don’t meet the College’s brand guidelines and cannot be used.
STEP 1: Select your item.
Mar-Comm has several preferred vendors that we work with to create branded items at a good price. Use the links below to explore what’s available. Make sure to note the item’s name, desired color(s), sizes if applicable, desired quantity, and the item’s URL. You’ll need this information to submit your Mar-Comm project request.
Please note that cost per item depends on the quantity ordered. Final cost may include an additional artwork set-up fee. Samples of your item may be available to order in advance, so you can see its quality, color, etc.
STEP 2: Submit your project request for artwork.
Once you have selected your swag item, submit your project request to receive the artwork you’ll need for your order. Select “Promotional Item Artwork Request” from the drop-down menu and complete the form. Once we receive your request, we will provide you with the logo and/or artwork to meet the item’s required specifications. Do not skip this step, or you may end up with items that don’t print correctly at your own expense.
STEP 3: Place your order.
Once Mar-Comm has approved your item and sent you the necessary artwork, you can place your order with the vendor. We’re happy to provide additional support if needed, so you’re sure to get what you expect. Contact Kim King at kking1@carthage.edu with questions.
