Timeline:

Google Form Template

Only send out once you have a reliable supplier and accurate quotes.

Allow at least 2 weeks for responses.

Confirmation of Order

Is essential and can be different from the invoice since many suppliers prices rely on total volume of orders.

Should be sent out within a day of the Google Form closing.

Order Invoice

This is completed after the final orders are given to the supplier and final prices are determined. Remember to include tax.

The timeline should be over one to two pay cycles.

Notice of Outstanding Payment

Remind those who have not paid for their merch - especially if it is personalized.

One to two days after the deadline is reasonable.

Make sure to regularly post in the Slack channels #general and #core about the status of the merch and upcoming deadlines.
