How It Works

Ten steps. No guesswork.

This is the exact process every Kreafan creator brand moves through — what happens at each stage, what we handle, and what we need from you.

01

Application & Qualification

You submit an application. We review audience quality, engagement depth, content niche and commercial fit, then hold an intake call to confirm the opportunity is real for both sides. Not every application is accepted — we cap monthly intake to protect production quality.

What Kreafan does

Reviews your channels and audience data, assesses category fit and realistic sales volume, runs the intake call, and issues commercial terms including revenue share.

What you do

Submit an honest application, share audience insights where you can, and join one call to talk through what you actually want to build.

02

Product & Category Selection

We map your audience against our four production categories and recommend a specific product — not a catalogue. The decision balances what your audience will pay, what manufactures well at your volume, and what genuinely fits your brand.

What Kreafan does

Models unit economics, checks factory feasibility and minimums, and presents two or three concrete product options with pricing and margin projections.

What you do

Choose the direction that feels right for your audience, and tell us where your instinct differs from our recommendation.

03

Design Brief & Creative Direction

Your creative direction is translated into a manufacturing-ready brief: materials, dimensions, colour references, finishes, hardware, branding placement and packaging components. This document is what the factory builds from, so ambiguity gets removed here rather than discovered later.

What Kreafan does

Produces technical drawings, material specs, Pantone references and a full packaging plan, then reviews it with you line by line before it goes to production.

What you do

Share references, logos and brand assets, and give clear creative direction on how the finished object should look and feel.

04

Sampling & Approval

The factory produces a physical sample on the real materials and finishes. It is photographed, shipped to you, and reviewed in your hands. Revisions are made where needed. Nothing scales until you sign off in writing on a sample you have actually held.

What Kreafan does

Manages sample production, inspects it before dispatch, ships it to you, and runs revision rounds with the factory until specification is met.

What you do

Review the sample honestly, flag anything that feels wrong, and give written approval once it is right.

05

Store Setup & Launch

We build the storefront under your brand: product photography, copy, pricing, payment processing, shipping rules by destination, and analytics. We then plan the launch window around your content calendar rather than ours.

What Kreafan does

Shoots the product, builds and configures the store, sets pricing and shipping, connects payments, and handles all technical launch readiness.

What you do

Approve the storefront, and tell your audience it exists. This is the part only you can do.

06

Pre-Order or Drop Period

Depending on the model chosen, the store opens as a timed drop or a pre-order window. This converts real demand into a production quantity, which is how we avoid both stockouts and warehouses full of unsold inventory.

What Kreafan does

Runs the commerce operation live, monitors conversion and order flow, manages customer communication, and locks the final production quantity.

What you do

Promote the drop across your channels in your own voice, on the schedule that suits your audience.

07

Production & Quality Control

The confirmed quantity goes into manufacturing. Materials are sourced, tooling is prepared, and the run is scheduled directly with the factory. Every batch is inspected against the approved sample, and units that miss specification are rejected on the factory floor.

What Kreafan does

Schedules and supervises production, sources materials, performs in-person quality inspection, and manages any rework before anything is packed.

What you do

Nothing. You receive production updates and photos, and keep making content.

08

Fulfillment & Shipping

Orders are picked, packed into your branded packaging, and dispatched worldwide with tracking. Customs documentation and duties handling are managed by our team, and customers receive shipping notifications under your brand.

What Kreafan does

Warehouses stock, packs every order, arranges international carriers, files customs paperwork, and sends tracking to each customer.

What you do

Nothing. You never handle a parcel, a label, or a carrier account.

09

Customer Support

Our support team answers your customers under your brand: order status, address changes, exchanges, replacements and refunds. Support tone is agreed with you during onboarding so responses sound like your brand, not a call centre.

What Kreafan does

Operates the full support desk, resolves delivery issues with carriers, and handles returns and replacements at our cost where we are at fault.

What you do

Forward anything that lands in your DMs. That is the extent of it.

10

Revenue Payout & Reporting

You receive payouts on a fixed schedule alongside a clear statement: units sold, revenue, production and fulfillment costs, your share, and sell-through by variant. Reporting is written to be read, not to be defended.

What Kreafan does

Reconciles sales and costs, issues the statement and payout on schedule, and reviews performance with you to plan the next release.

What you do

Read the numbers, ask questions, and decide what your audience should get next.

The Short Version

"We've done this before. You just need to show up for your audience."
