Association orders

One invoice, one design cycle, every team covered — usually the better deal.

One Minnesota association covered every team with a single 1,500-pin order on one invoice, which cleared the banner threshold and brought the per-pin price down across the program.

The alternative — each team ordering separately — means separate designs, separate minimums and separate proof cycles. Some associations prefer that autonomy; it costs more per pin.
