How we work.
One partner. From the first idea to the final delivery.
Brief
Start with the occasion and the people you want to reach. Whether you already have a product in mind or need help finding the right direction, your brief gives us the starting point.
- The occasion, audience and purpose of the merchandise
- Approximate quantities and any budget guidance
- Your required date and delivery destination
- Product ideas, brand assets and any packaging requirements
Share what you know so far. We help clarify the requirements and shape a product direction around your project.
What is the moment?
An event giveaway, a welcome pack and a client gift each serve a different purpose. The occasion helps shape the product direction and presentation.
Who is it for?
Tell us who will receive the merchandise and how they will use it. This helps us propose products that feel relevant to the people behind your brief.
What is the scale?
An approximate quantity gives the proposal a useful starting point. Product choices, branding methods and costs are considered around the scale of your project.
When does it arrive?
Share when the merchandise needs to arrive. We consider the required date alongside the product choices, artwork approval and delivery arrangements.
Where is it going?
Tell us where the merchandise is going and whether there are multiple destinations. Delivery requirements belong in the brief from the beginning.
Select a topic to see how it shapes your project.
Design & quote
We bring the product choices, artwork and presentation together around your brief. You can review how your brand will appear and how the finished merchandise will be presented.
- Product selection and the options suited to your brief
- Artwork, branding placement and available finishes
- Packaging and presentation for the occasion
- A clear quote covering the proposed project
Before production proceeds, we agree the products, artwork, quantities, costs and delivery arrangements with you. Timings and any project-specific requirements are confirmed as part of the proposal.
