"Why pre-order?" you might ask.

Well, the team at Vertical Ledge wanted to make sure that they could provide their customers with the products they wanted, while also minimizing waste and reducing their environmental impact. By offering pre-orders, they could get a better idea of the demand for each product and ensure that they only produced what was needed, reducing excess inventory and waste.

10 Questions A Brand Should Ask: The Difference Between Made-to-Order and Ready-To-Ship

  1. How specific are my needs and preferences for the product?
  2. Am I willing to wait for a customized product to be made, or do I need the product immediately?
  3. Can I find a product in the standard product line that meets my needs, or do I need something more niche?
  4. Am I willing to pay extra for a customized product?
  5. Do I want the ability to choose specific features, such as color or size, for the product?
  6. How important is it for me to have a product that is unique and customized to my needs?
  7. Can I wait a few weeks for the product to be made if it means getting a product that perfectly meets my needs?
  8. How important is the product's aesthetic to me?
  9. Am I comfortable with the possibility of making changes to the product design during the customization process?
  10. Do I have a clear idea of what I want in a product, or am I willing to browse standard options to find something suitable?

 

 

A pre-order is a design that is ready for production and available for purchase, but has not yet been completed or shipped to the customer. When a customer places a pre-order, they are essentially reserving their spot in line to receive the item once it is ready for shipment. For Vertical Ledge, pre-orders typically have a turnaround time of 21-28 days, meaning that the customer can expect to receive the item within this timeframe.

 

 

On the other hand, a custom stand is a unique design that is created specifically for a particular brand or customer. This involves a co-creation process between the customer and Vertical Ledge, where the customer's specific requirements, preferences, and objectives are taken into account. The lead time for a custom stand can be longer than a pre-order, often taking up to 3 months to complete. Additionally, custom stands from Vertical Ledge typically have an MOQ (minimum order quantity) of $2500, meaning that the brand must be willing to invest a certain amount to make the project feasible.

 

It is important for the customer to carefully consider their specifications before placing an order, as customization options may be limited once production has begun.

There are several benefits for a brand to make a custom display unit, including:

  1. Unique Brand Identity: A custom display unit can be designed to reflect the brand's unique identity and values, helping to create a memorable and distinctive image in the minds of customers.

  2. Improved Customer Experience: A custom display unit can be designed to showcase the brand's products in the best possible way, making it easier for customers to browse and find what they are looking for.

  3. Increased Sales: A well-designed custom display unit can help to attract more customers and increase sales by highlighting the brand's products and creating a visually appealing shopping experience.

  4. Better Use of Space: A custom display unit can be designed to fit a specific space, maximizing the use of available space in a store or at an event.

  5. Long-term Investment: A custom display unit can be a long-term investment for a brand, as it can be used over and over again, providing value for years to come.

 

Overall, a custom display unit can be a powerful tool for a brand to stand out in a crowded market, create a unique and memorable brand identity, and ultimately drive sales and growth.

 

 

One of the key benefits of a custom display unit is that it can be a long-term investment for a brand. Unlike temporary displays or standard off-the-shelf units, a custom display unit is specifically designed and built to meet the brand's unique needs and requirements.

 

Because a custom display unit is designed with a brand's specific products, audience, and aesthetic in mind, it is likely to be more effective in promoting the brand's products and generating sales. A well-designed custom display unit can continue to generate value for a brand over time, potentially even becoming an iconic part of the brand's identity.

 

Additionally, because a custom display unit is typically built with high-quality materials and construction methods, it is likely to be more durable and longer-lasting than a standard off-the-shelf unit. This means that a brand can continue to use the custom display unit for years to come, providing value and cost-effectiveness in the long run.

 

Overall, a custom display unit can be a smart long-term investment for a brand, helping to build a strong brand identity, drive sales, and provide ongoing value and cost-effectiveness.
