I have experience, both in running successful crowdfunding campaigns on Backerkit, as well as running my own business. I'm familiar with the manufacturing processes and the possible pitfalls to be aware of in production.
✅PRODUCTION
The manufacturer I'll be using is one who I have a long working relationship with and I've shipped hundreds of pins with them. They are reliable and I trust they will continue to provide me high quality pins and a smooth production.
✅PIN DESIGNS
Due to the difference in color variance of computer monitors, actual product colors may vary slightly from the colors shown in the final piece.
✅PIN GRADING
All pins are individually checked by me to ensure quality. I grade my pins carefully to make sure there are no overt flaws, scuffs, dimples, or scratches. Each backer will be given a quality product.
