$300 · 60 minutes
A 60-minute paid advisory call with light advance preparation and a concise written recap of next steps. Total work is limited to about 90 minutes.

$200/hour or custom fixed proposal
Megan executes the sourcing work with you—billed hourly against an approved cap, or as a custom fixed project proposal defined around your product.
$200/hour or scoped project
A review of your existing pricing, quotes, terms or supplier arrangement. Megan identifies the questions worth asking, the tradeoffs involved and alternatives worth considering.
Separately scoped paid additions
Strategy across your own ecommerce, Amazon FBA/FBM, Etsy, TikTok Shop, wholesale and brick-and-mortar. Channel requirements are assessed for each project; approvals, placement and specific fulfillment arrangements are never guaranteed or required.
Your initial sourcing discussion always considers your sales channel, because packaging, margin, timing and fulfillment affect sourcing decisions. Channel expansion and execution is separate scope.
Production follow-up, purchase order support, ongoing supplier management and factory visits.
Travel, samples, tooling, testing, freight, duties and third-party fees are separate from professional fees and agreed in advance.
