You don’t need an agency to get a professional sample. With Genpire, you create a complete pack and work directly with factories.
The Direct Answer
Prepare visuals, measurements, materials, and construction notes in Genpire, export the tech pack, and request a sample from suppliers. Iterate quickly until it’s ready for production.
Lean Sampling Playbook
- Lock the design: finalize one or two variations.
- Create the pack: include POMs, tolerances, trims, labels.
- Shortlist suppliers: match category, MOQ, and quality tier.
- Send sample requests: include delivery address and deadlines.
- Evaluate sample: fit, finish, materials; document changes.
- Issue rev pack: update specs and confirm production.
Why This Beats Agencies
- Control your costs and timeline.
- Faster iteration loops.
- Direct relationships with manufacturers.
