| Managed marketplace workflow | Ask whether the service can review the full brief and document supported options for each required product. | Who confirms the specification, costs, sample approvals and schedule, and which requirements remain unconfirmed? | Share the brief with MerchandAise for review; product support, price, minimum quantity and delivery require confirmation for the exact request. |
|---|
| Direct manufacturer or factory | Ask whether the manufacturer can produce the requested material, construction, decoration and quantity. | Which setup, sample, packaging and delivery costs are included, and what changes require a new quote? | Use the same specification when asking MerchandAise to review a production option; compare only the confirmed terms. |
|---|
| Local decorator or print shop | Ask whether the proposed decoration suits the exact supplied product, artwork and intended use. | Who supplies the base product, approves the applied sample and resolves product or decoration defects? | Ask MerchandAise which product and decoration combinations can be reviewed; confirm the sample and schedule before choosing. |
|---|
| Generic promotional catalog | Use catalog references to prepare questions about required variants, decoration and quantities. | Does the quoted product match the example, and are stock, decoration, minimum quantity and delivery confirmed? | MerchandAise catalog examples are starting points for a request and do not establish stock or a confirmed offer for a design. |
