Industry Best Practices and Standards:

• Adhere to industry standards for POD design, including branding consistency, scalability, and adaptability to different formats (e.g., t-shirts, mugs, phone cases).
• Utilize professional design tools such as Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, or Procreate for seamless design and production workflows.
• Implement high-quality file formats (e.g., PNG, JPEG) for vector and raster graphics to ensure print and digital clarity.
• Follow print-to-on-demand standards, including minimum order quantities, print resolution, and color accuracy.
• Incorporate universal design principles to accommodate diverse customer needs and preferences.

Quality Expectations and Metrics:
