Why I created this

I created The Packaging Project Starter to make the packaging process feel clearer, more approachable and easier to navigate.

Through my client work, I noticed that many of the same questions tend to come up at the beginning of a packaging project: what to ask a manufacturer, which terms matter, what needs to be prepared, and what should be confirmed before production.

I wanted to bring all of that practical information into one place, so founders can feel more prepared, ask better questions and move through the process with more confidence.

Think of this workspace as a support tool to help you understand the process, stay organised and feel less lost along the way.
