Frequently Asked Questions
Real-world questions apparel founders, POD sellers, and creator brand managers ask before delegating merch design operations.
Your VA delivers industry-standard print assets ready for Direct-to-Garment (DTG), Direct-to-Film (DTF), sublimation, and screen printing. Standard deliveries include 4500 x 5400 px transparent PNGs at 300 DPI (sRGB for digital POD or CMYK for screen printing), editable Adobe Illustrator (.AI) or Photoshop (.PSD) source files, vector SVGs, and PDF tech packs detailing Pantone color codes and print placement measurements.
Protecting your seller account is paramount. Before any design enters production, your VA cross-checks every typography slogan, catchphrase, and graphic theme against the USPTO TESS database (specifically Class 025 for clothing), as well as WIPO and TMHunt. We also verify that all fonts, textures, and graphic elements carry valid commercial-use licenses, preventing account suspension on Amazon Merch, Etsy, or Shopify.
Yes. Your VA manages end-to-end e-commerce fulfillment setup. They position artwork accurately within POD print zones (ensuring no auto-scaling cutoffs), set up colorway variations, configure pricing markups, generate photorealistic Placeit lifestyle mockups, write SEO-optimized product titles, and map inventory across Shopify, Amazon Merch on Demand, Etsy, or TikTok Shop.
Unlike unmanaged freelance marketplaces where you waste hours reviewing low-res artwork and chasing missing files, SageDoer provides an experienced Project Manager at zero extra cost. Your PM conducts technical pre-flight QA audits on all artwork (checking DPI, transparency fringing, and color separation), monitors turnaround times, and guarantees pre-trained backup coverage if your primary designer takes time off.
None at all. We charge zero platform fees, zero onboarding costs, and zero recruitment markups. You pay strictly for actual productive hours worked at a flat rate of $7/hour for part-time (20 hrs/wk) or $6/hour for full-time (40 hrs/wk). You can scale hours up during seasonal holiday drops (Q4, Mother's Day, Halloween) or pause flexibly without penalties.
