At Merch.com, we specialize in transforming your concepts into tangible, high-quality promotional products that resonate with your audience.

1. Ideation and Conceptualization

The journey begins with your idea.

We brainstorm together, combining your vision with our expertise to develop a unique concept that reflects your brand's personality.

2. Design and Customization

Once the concept is clear, our incredibly talented designers get to work creating custom design product mockups according to your brand specifications and product needs. We have extensive customization capabilities and almost anything is possible. Speak to an Account rep to explore the possibilities.

3. Prototyping and Approval

After finalizing the design, we produce a prototype of your product. This tangible sample allows you to see and feel the quality of the item before mass production. It’s an opportunity for confirm your design and have peace of mind knowing exactly what is going into production. Your approval is crucial at this stage and sets the stage for the production process. It's important to keep in mind that requesting a pre-production sample does add time to the overall production time, since the order must wait for sample approval. In the case where an order needs to be expedited, you can request waive the sample stage and go straight into production.
