Which products are successful in the cheer market?

For competitive cheerleading, cheer bows yield one of the highest profit margins of cheer market products. By sublimating on material like grosgrain ribbon, you can add customized designs like logos, monograms, and shapes. They cost so little to make, generally around $3, and you can easily sell them for $20-$30.

A strong companion to the personalized cheer bow is the cuff bracelet. Similar to the cheer bow, bracelets are fully customizable for adding school teams, leagues, or more personalized names and initials. With bracelets, you can also add crucial information for your company website and product number on the backside, so customers can easily reorder their customized product. The back side of the bracelet will not necessarily sublimate as well as the front, but it still works for printing key text information.
