Why Fast Shipping is Important for a Custom Paint by Number
It's just days away, and you still haven't purchased that someone special a unique and thoughtful gift yet. You want to give a custom paint-by-number; a DIY art project that culminates in a treasured painting.
But here’s the problem: like everything else, just about every custom paint by number today is made in China. With many other products this wouldn’t be much of a problem. A lot of products can be made just fine in China, and shipped to a warehouse in the United States. From there, they could be shipped to a customers in a few days. In fact, that’s exactly how non-custom paint by number kits make it to your doorstep.
But unlike a non-personalized product, custom paint by number is just that -- custom. They're custom made and so they have to be made on-demand, once the order is placed. In China. And then shipped to the United States. By boat. Which usually takes 4-6 weeks. In other words, the business-as-usual custom paint by number industry can’t have fast shipping - at least the big shops in China.
That’s actually why we started Paintable Pictures, to offer custom paint by numbers with free & fast shipping. We were frustrated that there was no way to get a custom paint by number in any reasonable time. So we got to work building a company focused on speed, product quality, and customer service. Today, we design, print, curate, and ship orders from our studio in Columbus, OH. We can deliver a better product in two days than our competitors can in four weeks.
Because of our decision to be offer custom paint by number with fast shipping, we’re also able to easily provide top tier customer service. For instance, suppose your kit gets smashed by a bigger package in transit. If it came from China, it’s going to be another 4 weeks before you can get a replacement - and that’s if you can get ahold of whoever you bought from. Here at Paintable Pictures, we want every customer to walk away from their interaction with us a happy customer. If something goes wrong, let us know and we’ll make it right. Every customer, every time, quickly.
