Commercial custom apparel community helps drive accountability, set business goals
Fabric, a vetted membership community for print shop owners, is now accepting applications for its second cohort of members, launching in July.
Founded by Bruce Ackerman (Printavo), Steven Farag (Campus Ink) and Kevin Baumgart (Sales Ink), Fabric was created to fill a gap in the decorated apparel industry by providing support, coaching and guidance to help businesses grow and thrive.
In March, Fabric launched its first set of core groups for shop owners. The three groups, each consisting of seven to 10 members working in non-competing markets, meet monthly with an executive coach/facilitator. During the meetings, facilitators help drive accountability, support goal setting and foster positive conversations in general.

Per the organization, “Growing a profitable print shop is challenging. The journey involves tough decisions and often leaves owners feeling isolated and drained. Participating in a core group of industry peers creates accountability and helps owners gain clarity, support and direction.”
“We are creating a space where the business owner can become financially secure and be in full control of their time,” says Printavo’s Ackerman. “This doesn’t happen in many shops today.”
Campus Ink’s Farag adds, “I’m confident that if the shops take their core group seriously, they will move into a realm of peak business ownership.”
