What's the occasion? Team event? Client gift? Product launch? Staff uniforms? Event swag? Each occasion suggests different products. Staff uniforms = polos and caps. Client gifts = notebooks and mugs. Event swag = tote bags and wristbands.
Who is this for? Internal (your team) or external (clients, customers, event attendees)? Internal merch can be more functional. External merch should be more visible and brand-aligned.
How many pieces? Quantity affects price significantly. Bulk orders drop the per-unit cost. If you're ordering for 50 people, that's a very different budget than 10.
When do you need it? Allow at least 57 working days for custom orders. If it's urgent, say so upfront rush orders are possible but may cost more.
