The flag only your people can buy: how a franchise dresses every location

You visit one of your locations on a Monday morning and look up at the door. The flag is the wrong blue, and it is half the size of the one at the next location. Nobody did it on purpose: the manager ordered from the printer down the road.

With Flag Studio Pro your flag lives in our shop as a private flag: only the people you invite can see it and buy it. Each location orders what it needs, on its own date, within the sizes and finishes you allowed, and sees the delivery date before paying. You keep your share, or hand it to your locations as a discount.

The mistake: one brand, twenty suppliers

Most networks dress their locations one of two ways. Either each location finds its own supplier, and the colours never match. Or headquarters orders a hundred flags, stores them and ships them out, and the stock runs out in the size nobody expected.

Both fail at the same point. A new location opens on a fixed date, and the answer it gets from a supplier is «about a week». The flag arrives after the ribbon is cut, or it arrives in a box from headquarters in the wrong size.

Private: only the people you invite

A private flag is a flag of the shop like any other, with one difference. Only the people you invite can see it and buy it. Your locations find it; a stranger browsing the catalogue does not.

Your logo does not end up on sale to the public, and nobody outside your network orders it.

Headquarters decides once

With Pro you set limits on sizes, proportions, finishes and materials. You decide them once, and every location orders within them.

Say your locations face the sea. You allow Storm Flag, our most wind-resistant fabric, with holes that let gusts through instead of pulling at the seams. Say they are shops on a calm street with a flag flying all year. You allow Long Life, the heavier fabric that resists tearing at the hoist. Indoors, for the meeting room, Satin.

The manager in a new town cannot pick the wrong fabric, because the wrong fabric is not on the list.

Each location orders on its own date

Nobody waits for headquarters to send a box. The manager opens the flag, picks one of the sizes you allowed, types the postcode and sees the delivery date before paying.

The flag is sewn after the order, so there is no stock to manage anywhere: not at headquarters, not in the back room of the shop. A location that needs one flag orders one flag.

The date is a promise, not an estimate. With Express, if we are late, the location gets a full refund and keeps the flags. With Standard or Economy, a late order puts 10% of the order back in the location's wallet in the shop. Nobody has to ask.

Your share, or their discount

Every time a flag sells, part of the price is yours: 15% when an ordinary customer buys, 8% when a reseller buys or when we also pay the affiliate who brought the customer.

A network can use that share two ways:

  • Headquarters keeps it. The share matures when the order's return window closes, and from 100 € matured you request the payout, once a month at most, with no fee.
  • The locations get it as a discount. Your share is given to the buyers, so each location pays less than the shop price.

Either way the flag never costs more than the other flags of the shop: the share comes out of our margin.

What Pro costs

Flag Studio Pro costs 19 € + VAT a month, with Flag Studio Base included. In every month your flags sell at least 100 €, the 19 € come back to you as shop credit.

You pay only after we accept you. You can move between Base and Pro whenever you want, from your account: moving up, you pay only the difference for the days left.

Your logo, your letter

We print only what someone has the right to sell. For your own brand, that someone is you: the holder's letter, written by whoever holds the rights, names the design and allows us to print and sell it. We read it before publishing.

The same works for every network with a symbol: store chains, federations, clubs with branches. Pro is the plan for networks.

The proof: the date on every page

Every product in our shop shows its arrival day for the postcode you type, before you pay. On the day we write this, the shop shows 484 reviews with an average of 4.9 out of 5, and you can read them before your locations order.

The moment: your next opening

Take the date of your next opening, or the day your season starts. Count back. Your private flag has to be on sale before the first manager needs it.

That means applying, our answer, activating Pro, uploading your design and setting the limits, all before that date. Start today, while the opening is still on the calendar and not on the door.

One step to begin: apply to Flag Studio.

One brand, one flag, every location.
