What to ask before you hire
- Which countries and factory types do you work with?
- Are you paid by me only, or also by the factory?
- What minimums are realistic for my run size?
- 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.
