QUICK START

Before you enter the Academy, it helps to have the core pieces of your brand in place. These four steps give you a real identity and real product in hand—so you can move through the Academy with purpose and confidence.

STEP 1 — Choose Your Brand Name

Select a name that fits your style and brand direction. Keep it simple, memorable, and easy to say.

STEP 2 — Design Your Logo

Create a professional, clean logo that will represent your brand across your bags, booth, apparel, and online presence. Our in-house design team can get this done if you want the help.

STEP 3 — Approve Your Label Design

Once your logo is finalized, we’ll finish your USDA-compliant label. This is where your brand officially comes to life on the bag.

STEP 4 — Place Your First Order

Approve the design of your labels and place your first order. Choose the inventory option that matches your goals:

Option 1: The $300 Starter Box
• 48 total bags across 4 flavors (12 bags each)
• $6.25 per bag
• Perfect for testing your brand, offering samples, gathering feedback, and beginning early sales

Option 2: Standard Flavor Cases
• 48 bags of a single flavor (12 flavors available)
• $264.00 per box / 5.50 per bag
• Best for markets, retail accounts, wholesale opportunities, and building consistent inventory
