How to choose
Decide the role of each piece first. A USB drive carries the sample files, a notebook or notepad gives journalists somewhere to write, a pen pairs with it, and a card states the product story in a few lines. Check the printable area on the exact model before placing small text near an edge or a seam, and ask which decoration method is available for that item rather than assuming.
Then plan the packed set. Measure the notebook and card against the tote so everything sits flat, and decide where the drive sits within the packed set. Confirm artwork rights for any imagery used, share colours and quantities with Sense2, and review the digital artwork proof before production. Stock availability, order minimum and timing are confirmed for the specific item at quote.

What are press preview merchandise typically used for?
Most of this range is chosen for staff onboarding and welcome kits. Tell Sense2 the occasion, the recipients and the quantity and we will point you to the right pieces for the brief.
Which notebook should I choose for a press kit?
Compare the cover material, closure and printable area of the actual models. A cork cover takes different decoration options than a plain cover, so ask which method is available for the selected notebook before finalising the artwork.
Can I use press imagery from the campaign?
Only if you hold the rights to it. Supply final artwork with any photography cleared for this use, and confirm the print area on the selected item first. Sense2 prepares a digital proof, but rights checking stays with you.
What is the minimum order?
Order minimums vary by item and decoration method. Send the specific pieces, quantities and artwork to request a quote. Setup and freight are quoted separately, so review the complete order cost rather than a single unit figure.
When should I order for a preview date?
Share the event date at the start. Availability, artwork approval, production and freight all shape the schedule for the selected items. Confirm current timing for each piece at quote before locking the preview plan.
What material details should I check?
Ask which materials are used on the selected tote, notebook or pen, since construction varies by item. A material name alone does not establish care requirements or feel, so request the product-specific information before choosing.
How does the proof and order process work?
Send artwork, quantities and the event date to request a quote. Sense2 confirms availability, minimum and branding method for the specific item, then prepares a digital artwork proof. Production begins once you approve that proof.

Material first, then the mark
Imagine the preview table set an hour before doors. A tote holds the set: a cork notebook, a pen laid across the cover, a USB drive tucked inside and a card on top with the product story in three lines. Consider each mark before choosing the method. Where does the eye land when the notebook is open? Does the pen print sit beside the clip or the barrel? Does the card sit flat against the cover? Ask which decoration method each material allows, measure the pieces against the tote, and the kit takes shape with fewer surprises at the proof stage.
