Overview
The blank product affects the entire program.
Fabric, construction, color, coating, seams, sizing, availability, replenishment, packaging, and distribution all influence product suitability.
Catalogs are useful starting points, but products should be qualified against the actual decoration method, artwork, quantities, timing, and customer experience.
