Sample goal
confirm physical fit, material feel, feature placement, and production assumptions before full proof approval
Sample SKUs
Study Kit, Planner Set, Marker Kit, Desk Refill
Approval criteria
Quality review should cover dieline fit, print proof approval, matte or gloss finish expectations, sample fill behavior, seal strength, closure or feature fit, barcode and claim placement, and ship-test notes before scaling.
Risk to catch
Common failure modes include weak seals, unclear hierarchy, poor fill fit, feature choices that do not match product behavior, and artwork that cannot adapt across SKUs.
MOQ planning
Planning range: start around 100+ pouches per SKU for validation runs; confirm final MOQ, proof timing, and production lead time by size, material, finish, and SKU count.
