Nothing destroys trust like going back on your word.
Try new things. Take some risks. Make mistakes. Apologize. Start over. Try again.
They’re less expensive in the long run.
It’s better to stay ahead of the curve than to fall behind.
Life is a continual transformation and the acceptance of new experiences.
In 1989, Aly and Rick Salz acquired a business license so they could begin buying t-shirts at wholesale prices. In those days, they had many friends who needed shirts for their youth groups, summer camps, and mission trips. So, acting as intermediaries, Aly and Rick started collecting orders and procuring garments they would take to local screen printers to have made into custom t-shirts.
It’s been 32 years since that first business license, which they received the same week they got engaged.
Aly and Rick began building a custom screen-printed t-shirt business in the days before the widespread use of computers or the internet. Invoices were written by hand, stencils hand-cut using Exacto blades, and film was shot and reshot to create reverse or knock-out images. One job even required the precise placement of thousands of dots by hand on film separators.
After setting up shop in Portland, OR in the early 90s, Aly and Rick realized that business was transitioning online, so they added e-commerce and fulfillment to their service offerings.
Over time, Righteous evolved from using homemade equipment to factory-made manual presses, screen-printing machines, embroidery machines, and other large-scale production equipment. They moved the business from their garage to one manufacturing space after another until finally buying their own building.
Today, Righteous provides full-service, in-house management and support to our clients, including product selection, design, imprinting, pop-up shops, custom online stores for corporate apparel, shipping, and warehousing and fulfillment.
Righteous operates intending to help our team realize they’re capable of more than they thought possible and inspire them to make a positive difference in the businesses we support. When we help others succeed, we, too, realize success.
The last 35 years have been one long crazy, lovely, exciting adventure. So, here’s to many more years of working alongside our fantastic team members and serving our fabulous customers.
