## Describe it. See it. Refine it.
In a supported MerchandAise ChatGPT workspace, describe your idea, see the product in 3D and ask for changes in everyday language.
Example prompt: Create a mailer box for my candles, with our logo and a simple green design.
Example feedback: Make the logo smaller and leave more space around it.

## An idea is enough to begin.
MerchandAise connects your design choices with the details of making and delivering your product.
- **Describe your idea:** Tell us what you want to package, who it is for and any quantity or timing you know. A photo, sketch or existing design can help.
- **Explore the design:** Use live 3D on supported products. Ask for creative guidance in a supported AI session, or share your brief with our team.
- **Review your quote:** Confirm the design, dimensions, materials, quantity and destination. Review the price, delivery and approval requirements before ordering.

## Make it look right. Make it work.
Our team reviews how your design can be made. If a choice does not fit the brief, ask about supported alternatives.
- **Fit and protection:** Start with the contents, dimensions and how the package will travel. New structures or inserts need technical review.
- **Artwork and finish:** Bring your colors, logo and message. Materials, print methods and finishes depend on the chosen product and production options.
- **Quantity and delivery:** Share how many you need and where they should go. Minimum quantities, costs and timing are confirmed in the quote.

## Know what you are approving.
A clear preview helps you decide. The reviewed specifications and quote define what will be made.
- **Preview the design:** Live 3D helps you review supported shapes and artwork. Screen colors, textures and finishes can differ from the printed result.
- **Confirm the details:** Your quote covers the agreed product, quantity and delivery requirements. Changes may need another review. MerchandAise remains your point of contact.
- **Review proof and sample requirements:** Digital approval and technical checks remain required. Sample options, any required tests, costs and timing are confirmed for your specific product and quote.

## Useful details, when you need them.
You can start without a finished specification. These guides help when you are ready to work through the details.
- **Plan your packaging: /en-us/blogs/branded-merchandise-packaging-specification-guide:** Think through dimensions, artwork, materials and packing.
- **Compare production options: /en-us/blogs/custom-merchandise-supplier-comparison-matrix:** Understand print methods, quality checks and production capabilities.
- **Understand quantities and timing: /en-us/blogs/custom-merchandise-moq-lead-time-guide:** See how quantities, approvals and delivery affect your plan.

## A few things to know.
Start simply. Work through the details as your idea takes shape.
- **What packaging and printed materials can I request?:** Boxes, mailers, sleeves, cards, inserts, labels or event print. We review the format, material, quantity and destination to confirm availability. A product preview does not confirm an offer.
- **Do I need design experience?:** No. Describe what you want or bring a reference. Personal projects, team ideas and brand briefs are welcome; our team can help clarify the next step.
- **How do I use the AI designer?:** AI-guided design runs in supported MerchandAise ChatGPT workspaces. Access depends on your account and workspace setup. Contact our team to get started, or explore a supported product in the website 3D editor.
- **Can I start with a photo, logo or existing packaging?:** Yes. Share a product reference and describe what to keep or change. Use artwork you own or have permission to use. Custom dimensions, new structures and supplied dielines need technical review.
- **When will I know the price and delivery date?:** After the design, product, quantity and destination have been reviewed. Your quote confirms current terms. If the price or timing does not work, ask about supported alternatives and a revised quote.
- **How are proofs and samples handled?:** Digital design approval and technical producibility must be confirmed. Ask which sample options and approval requirements apply to your product, including their cost and timing. A 3D preview is not a physical sample.
