Video transcript

  1. 0:00A personalized tote run is a data project first.
  2. 0:05Split each bag into two layers: a shared logo, identical everywhere, and a variable name line in its own zone, so long names never hit the logo.
  3. 0:16The data file is the spec. One row per bag, a unique ID first, print fields apart from routing, saved so accents survive, trimmed and de-duplicated.
  4. 0:28Design for the longest name with a written fit rule, then proof each variant. The designer signs layout; the list owner signs spelling.
  5. 0:39Print and pack in file order, ID on the slip, not the tote. Reconcile counts before shipping, set a data cutoff, and keep logo-only bags for late names.
  6. 0:50Most delays come from late lists, not the press.
  7. 0:55Send your quantity, print fields and distribution date.
