Here’s a look at how Don’t Lose Hope (DLH) Screen Printing found its way to Print Hustlers and why they think you should attend.
A Different Type of Event
For growing screen printing businesses, the Print Hustlers Conference is more than just an event; it’s a place for rapid learning, networking, and strategic business development.
Rodney and Elisa from Don’t Lose Hope Screen Printing found that Print Hustlers stood out from other traditional tradeshows and helped them elevate their business.
Focusing on What’s Important
According to Rodney and Elisa, Print Hustlers furthers the event experience by focusing on business strategies, mindset work, and profitability. It is a platform for learning from leaders within and outside the screen printing industry, offering actionable insights and tips to help screen printers scale effectively.
Their experience yielded a few unique aspects that they say make it a must for growing shops:
- Access to High-Quality Industry Knowledge – Attendees gain exposure to lean methodologies, efficiency tips, and profitability strategies from successful business owners inside and outside the screen-printing industry.
This knowledge would cost much more through private consulting but is available here at a fraction of the price. - Tailored Learning—Print Hustlers offers a variety of insights from different perspectives. This model allows attendees to choose the best strategies and advice for their business and situation.
- Welcoming, Collaborative Environment – Unlike larger, more commercial events, Print Hustlers fosters a community spirit where industry veterans openly share experiences and uplift others. According to Rodney and Elisa, this was key to their repeated attendance.
Three Ways to Get the Most Out of Print Hustlers Conference 2024
Rodney and Elisa also shared their top tips for newcomers to make the most of the Print Hustlers Conference:
Network with Intention
For Elisa, who was initially more reserved, reaching out to people was game-changing. She encourages new attendees to be bold and start conversations—most event attendees are open, welcoming, and eager to connect. Simply saying “hi” can open doors to lasting relationships and future collaborations.
Be Open to Learning from Both Leaders and Peers
Rodney noted that Print Hustlers’ value lies in its diversity of knowledge. He pointed out that learning about lean practices and inventory management from other shop owners led to significant efficiency improvements in their shop.
You’ll learn from those further along in their business journey and peers facing similar challenges.

The overarching theme at Print Hustlers goes beyond technical knowledge and emphasizes mindset- how you think about your business, leadership, and success.
Rodney shared that the motivational advice and mindset shifts discussed at the conference have been instrumental in DLH’s long-term success.
Investing in Success
Print Hustlers Conference offers unparalleled value for its cost, from insights into lean operations to the chance to build relationships with industry veterans and network with other business owners.
