SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I knew Ian (CEO, Peterman Design Firm) from a previous project. I trust his judgment and insight.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Peterman Design Firm is in charge of pricing and gathering information to keep my costs low and profits high. They also deal with labeling and securing the proper lawyers to oversee the labels before going to print. They created our wholesale contract along with spreadsheets and accompanying backup. They came up with names for the product line and individual products. They do many other things that I don’t have time to accomplish due to my full-time day job.
