What to ask before you hire
- Which parts do you do yourself and which do you bring in?
- How do you bill pass-through costs like samples and fabric?
- Which factories have you placed product like mine with?
- Can I see the agreement before we start: what's included, how many rounds, and what costs extra?
Not sure who fits?
Post a brief once: what you're making, your budget and timeline. Consultants who fit reply to you, and Runsheet takes no fee.
