Hello!
Welcome back to Seek + Source Summer Camp! I hope you enjoyed our rainy day activity last week. This week, we’re diving into the exciting process of ordering samples. It’s time to put on our fishing hats and get ready to reel in the best options!
Week 5: Ordering Samples and Knowing When to Throw Them Back
Ordering samples is a crucial step in the manufacturing process. It’s our chance to see and feel the product before committing to a larger order. But just like fishing, sometimes we need to throw a few back before we find the perfect catch.
When requesting samples, here are a few key things to ask potential manufacturers:
- What materials are available?
- Can you do custom printing for the pillow covers?
- What is the cost and lead time for samples? The last thing I want to do is order samples and then have to wait months for a sample to arrive!
