**TIMEFRAME NOTE:
CO-OP labels are printed as a group (once all color plates have been made, approved, and 2nd payments have been received) creating a savings for all members. To estimate your delivery date simply add a minimum estimated 4-6 weeks to current co-op order date listed on the askDebby.com/BrandingLabels page. Re-orders usually are printed and shipped first. 

            
STEP THREE - Creative DESIGN

A) Submit your logo in an "eps" vector file format from CorelDraw (X3 or earlier) or Adobe Illustrator (CS3 or earlier.) Email logo to debby@askDebby.com. You will receive a confirmation email letting you know that your logo was received. If you don't receive the  confirmation email, please contact me either by phone at 772-287-9559 or email at debby@askDebby.com.

B) Submit verbiage to be included on your label. Complete and submit the form below. Please keep in mind that the intention of the branding labels is to brand (reflect) your logo and simple contact information. Too much copy makes the label contents too hard to read. Examples are telephone number, and email or website.

Branding Toppers EXAMPLES

If you have a certain idea of how you would like the label to look, please sketch it out on a piece of paper and fax it to 800-640-1936. Be sure to include your name, the store name, and phone number of how you can be reached if there are any questions.

You'll receive a "creative proof" that I design and send to you for your approval. We can make changes as many times as it takes to create a label design that you can be proud of. (NOTE: In the case that there are many revisions made, there is a chance that the order deadline may be missed and however your artwork would be completed, plates made, and your order would be placed into the queue for the next deadline.)

If you have any questions please send me an email or call me at 772-297-9559.



Label Design Form

Enter the information that you would like included on your Branding Toppers and submit. Please be sure to send your current logo (in the format described above) to debby@askDebby.com so that the creative design can begin. If a field doesn't apply to your order simply enter "n/a". Thank you.
