All DocsThird Party ProductsEdit

Third-party Product Merchandising

 

Product profile:

* High quality

* Cool - cool idea, cool innovation, cool looking, cool sounding or all of the above

* Strong visual design, even if it leans towards looking "technical" or industrial aka good but not fussy "form factor"

* Suitable for travel, but not limited just to travel uses

* Complimentary to our brand

* Have a great story (or one that we can make great)

* Already has a following, even if it's a small one

* Preferably an entrepreneurial or family brand

* Possibility of customization aka SeV Special Edition versions of their products

* Can withstand our rigorous field tests

* Semi-premium to premium pricing i.e. $20 socks vs. $4/3-pack to allow for decent margins

* Willing to work with us on promotions and discounting (i.e. when we run low on our SeV stock, we can maintain sales momentum with third-party products and good promos)
