Explain what participants need to submit and how feedback will be given. If a product preview is requested, specify the exact product and saved version rather than requiring an unspecified polished rendering.\n\n## Confirm the campaign information\n\nBefore promotion, confirm the organiser, eligibility, dates and time zone, judging process, rights requirements and any actual prize terms. Keep these facts separate from the visual concept. This guide does not create contest rules or authorise a prize commitment.\n\n## Prepare clear product references\n\nShow the relevant product and distinguish a concept from an available or manufactured item. Check supported options and confirm production separately if merchandise will be made.
