T-Shirts
One popular personalization avenue is customizing t-shirts for your customers.

Depending on your vendor, blank t-shirts can cost anywhere from $2.00-$5.00, but customers will spend around $12.00-$15.00 for customized shirts. That’s a $10 profit for you from just a single shirt.
Stickers
Stickers are another popular item that are popular with schools and sports teams. Elementary teachers always have stickers on hand to give out to students and to even decorate their classrooms. As mentioned before, teenagers also love stickers to personalize their water bottles, laptops, and custom sports stickers with a school mascot and player jersey number are a great fundraiser for any team.
Car Decals
Creating car decals are also a great way to make money with the Roland BN-20A. Create decals for a high school or university where students can buy these decals for school spirit.
