Apparel Consulting and Founder Support for Sewn Product Brands
Ongoing guidance when you need help developing or manufacturing a sewn product.
You don't need to know everything about development and manufacturing.
You just need to know someone who does.
Founder Support gives you dedicated consultation time each month, along with access to the weekly MADE Founders Forum, where founders talk through what's actually happening as they bring their products to manufacture. Bring a question you're working through, hear what other founders are running into at their own stage and learn about real products moving through the process.

A Weekly Conversation for Sewn Product Founders
The MADE Founders Forum is a weekly group conversation for founders who are developing and manufacturing sewn products. It is a place to ask questions, talk through decisions, and hear how other founders are navigating the process.
Members can bring questions about something they're currently working through, or simply listen to the discussion. Topics might include responding to a manufacturer's questions, evaluating a sample, making a product decision, or figuring out what to do next.
You Don't Need All the Answers. You Need Someone You Can Ask.
An experience doesn't have to be yours to learn from it.
