MerchandAise connects product creation, supplier-backed terms, approvals, genuine samples, ordering, and reorders. We review proposals from people who bring qualified demand, agencies that operate client programmes, and production teams that can add verified capability.

## What MerchandAise keeps connected
- A product starts with words, a reference, an existing design, or a supported product—not a disconnected specification.
- Product-native 3D, current supplier facts, and explicit manual-review states keep visual and commercial expectations honest.
- The exact digital proof and a genuine production sample are approved before mass production begins.
- The product, quote, decisions, order history, and repeat-order path stay with MerchandAise across the partnership.

## Choose the relationship that fits
Start with the role you can genuinely own. We review one specific opportunity first, then agree responsibilities and commercial terms before anything is presented as a live partnership.
- **Demand and distribution:** Creators, consultants, clubs, communities, and platforms. Bring an identifiable audience, customer segment, or distribution channel. We review the first opportunity, customer ownership, attribution needs, and the route into a real merchandise programme. CTA: Discuss a demand partnership (/en-gb/partners/apply)
- **Agency and programme delivery:** Agencies, studios, brand teams, and multi-client operators. Bring a client need or recurring programme. We scope how creative work, approvals, quoting, customer communication, production co-ordination, and repeat orders would work before launch. CTA: Discuss an agency partnership (/en-gb/partners/apply)
- **Production network:** Manufacturers, decorators, and fulfilment specialists. Apply with verified capability, quality, capacity, commercial, and compliance facts. MerchandAise co-ordinates the buyer relationship and keeps supplier identities private except where disclosure is legally required. CTA: Apply as a production partner (/en-gb/suppliers?intent=production-partner)

## What the first review covers
We start with one real opportunity, not a broad partnership deck. The review should make the opportunity, responsibilities, and evidence clear enough to choose a next step.
- **The opportunity:** Audience or client, product intent, quantity range, destinations, required date, and the first measurable use case.
- **The operating role:** Who owns the relationship, creative work, approvals, commercial communication, service, and reorder follow-up.
- **The evidence:** A real launch scenario for demand or agency partners; capability, quality, capacity, compliance, and sample evidence for production partners.

## Questions to settle before we work together
- **Are commissions or commercial terms already fixed?:** No. Referral, agency, distribution, or other commercial terms are agreed only after fit, scope, responsibilities, and the first opportunity are reviewed. This page does not promise commission, exclusivity, or order volume.
- **Can an agency keep its client relationship?:** We define customer ownership, communication, approvals, and service responsibilities before a pilot. Orders placed through MerchandAise still use the same seller-of-record, quoting, proof, sample, production, and support contracts.
- **How do production partners join the network?:** Production candidates start in supplier onboarding and provide business, capability, quality, capacity, commercial, compliance, and sample evidence. Buyers communicate with MerchandAise; supplier identity and private terms stay protected except where disclosure is legally required.
- **Do we need a finished partnership plan?:** No. One specific audience, client programme, distribution use case, or production capability is enough to begin. We use that real opportunity to decide whether a pilot or another next step makes sense.

## Bring one real opportunity.
Share the audience or client, the role you want to own, the product or capability involved, the relevant regions, and the first launch you have in mind. We will review fit without assuming terms that have not been agreed.
