Product Packaging

For product-based businesses, ready to launch their next big thing.

Who It’s For

You’ve got a product you believe in, now it’s time to make sure it looks the part.
This service is for makers and indie brands who want packaging that feels as intentional and refined as the product inside. Whether you're preparing for a retail debut or reimagining an existing design, I’ll work closely with you to create cohesive, high-quality packaging that aligns with your brand and meets production standards, so you can focus on bringing your product to market with confidence.
This is a great fit if you:
Are preparing for your first wholesale or retail launch
Need help navigating dielines, printing, and production
Want a designer who can guide both the creative and technical sides of packaging
Want a packaging system that’s custom designed and aligned with your brand

Product Packaging

What you get:
Strategy session to clarify goals, product details, and creative direction
Concept design and exploration based on your product and brand
A package design system that can extend across multiple SKUs
Print-ready artwork + dieline setup

The Process

Most Product Launch projects are completed in 3–4 weeks. Here's how the process typically flows:
Discovery We’ll start with a strategy session to clarify your product details, goals, and any production considerations. This phase helps set the creative direction and align expectations.
Ideation I’ll explore visual directions and develop your package design system. You’ll review the concepts, and we’ll refine the one that feels right. This step sometimes includes ordering and reviewing materials samples.
Refinement Once approved, I’ll finalize your design, set up your dieline, and prepare your files for print. If you’re working with a printer, I can coordinate file handoff and ensure specs are met.
Finalization & Prep You’ll receive your production-ready files, plus any add-ons we’ve scoped in your proposal. If your project includes production, then I’ll work directly with your printer to manage the printing of your packaging.
FAQs
You’ll need basic product info (name, description, size/weight), any required legal content (like ingredients or disclaimers), and ideally a dieline or container dimensions from your supplier. If you're unsure, don’t worry — I’ll walk you through what’s needed during our consultation.
Yes, print sourcing and production support are available as an add-on. I can help you compare materials, get samples, and coordinate with vendors to ensure a smooth process.
I can help you design your packaging, but you must make sure your product information follows all legal and regulatory rules. If you’re unsure, I recommend looking into your product category’s guidelines before we start to help everything go more smoothly.
Projects require a deposit to book, with the remainder split into milestone payments. A small discount is available for clients who choose to pay in full at the time of booking. All terms will be outlined clearly in your proposal.
That’s completely okay. I’ll meet you where you are and help recommend a design approach that fits your goals and production budget. Whether you’re printing simple labels at home or working with a professional vendor, we’ll shape the project to make the most of your resources.
