WHAT IS MY ROLE?
Open tabYou will need to promote the product or products on your social channels. You know your audience and fans better than anyone, so you have 100% control on your message.

Open tabWe do. 100%. We take on all of the financial risk and take care of all the behind-the-scenes, roll-up-the-sleeves work including design, sampling, production, photoshoot product, e-store branding and design, e-store operation, fulfillment, warehousing, customer service and accounting.
HOW MANY UNITS TO ORDER?
Open tabThis is something we determine together. If it’s limited edition (e.g., a few hundred units) we can do that. If it’s thousands or tens of thousands? We can do that too. Depends on the program you are envisioning. We will figure it out together.
CAN I SEND YOU MERCH I ALREADY HAVE, AND SELL IT ON C RP R T N?
Open tabYes, this is something we can do. We can discuss an adjusted revenue share since you’ve already paid for the product.
HOW DO YOU MANAGE THE PRODUCT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT PROCESS?
Open tabYou’re busy, so we make it easy.
- We have an initial call or meet in person to discuss your product and design vision.
- Our design team generates concepts and shares them with you for further discussion, revision and tweaks.
- We can do this as many times as necessary until you’re 100% satisfied with the final design. You will ultimately have “approval" over the final design.
- We will create a physical sample that we will send to you for in-person review. Again, you will have an opportunity to suggest edits, tweaks, improvements, or, if you’re 100% happy, approve.
- We will set up your custom e-store webpage on crprtn.com and feature your custom product or content (it will look something like this: crprtn.com/collections/YOURNAME.
- You will promote it on your social channels using the custom link we create for you. If you also want a password-protected landing page, we can create that, too.
- We start selling!
HOW LONG DO YOU KEEP PRODUCTS ON SALE?
Open tabIt’s totally up to you. We recommend a minimum 48 hours. But we can sell ongoing if you prefer. We can discuss the best strategy for you on a case-by-case basis. Sometimes limited-edition sales is best direction. Other times, you may want to keep selling if the products have a long shelf-life and you are looking for a replenishment program.

- Product design

HOW LONG DOES THE CONTRACT LAST?
