Award Proofing -
Before we start any production for custom awards, we usually discuss with potential clients about their vision. You will work with our designers to create the design you have in mind. After the plan, we design a digital rendering of the finished look of the award and email it. The rendering goes along with a quotation and the packaging options available. At this point, you can make any changes you want. If you are satisfied with the rendering, you give the green light for production. Besides, you will send us the shipping address and the date of delivery. This timeline will allow us to plan accordingly. We store the molds for repeat projects.
