Branded Merch + Store
Merch your customers actually want, plus a store that runs itself
Branded merch is a customer relationship, not a giveaway. We design merch your audience will actually wear and use, source the production, and set up a simple online store so the operation runs without you minding it.

How it works
01
Week 1: Strategy and design
We map the product line to your audience and design the first round of merch concepts. You pick what to produce.
02
Week 2 to 3: Production and storefront
Vendor coordination kicks off while we build your store and product pages in parallel.
03
Week 4 to 5: Launch
Product photos, listings, and store go live together. We monitor the first orders to make sure fulfillment flows clean.
Common questions
Do I have to hold inventory?
Not unless you want to. Print on demand handles everything for you. Small batch is a middle ground if you want better margins.
Can the store live on my existing website?
Sometimes. Depends on the platform. If you're on Squarespace or Wix with a basic plan, we usually recommend a separate Shopify store or a custom storefront on the relaunched site.
What about ongoing inventory and product updates?
We can hand off the operation to you, or stay on as ongoing support. Tell us what's realistic for your team to maintain.
