Getting your branded merch into hands is easy. Getting them to keep it is where expertise matters. You deserve to be the go-to shirt, the daily desk essential, or the gear that never sees the landfill.

We're horrified by the amount of money and time people waste on promotional products that no one keeps. It's a damn shame.

HERE’S THE PROBLEM: When merchandise is ordered blindly without a strategy or quality standard, it feels exactly like what it is: unwanted junk.

ENTER SHOWPONY: We are unapologetic merch nerds with high standards. By combining real taste and talent, we transform ordinary promotional items into extraordinary brand experiences. With our "Win - Place - Show" process, we provide vetted, exceptional quality options for any budget, ensuring you get merch people actually love.

How We Get Down.

Our Process

We’ve got a proven pony process. Trust us.

  • We’ll need to know quantities, in-hands date (or deadline), budget, sizes, thoughts, etc. Be thinking about your target audience and your goals.

  • It can be in person or via Zoom.

  • From there, we create a presentation of branded merch (using your brand guidelines) items that fit your needs and your budget. Yes, we can order samples.

  • Based on proposal feedback and selections, we produce a sales order for you to approve.

  • After your online approval of our Sales Order, we send you an invoice and place orders with product suppliers. Merch must be purchased up-front. This practice ensures we have good relationships with suppliers who prioritize our projects. Your order status is kept up-to-date in your client portal.

  • Products are delivered to Showpony’s global HQ and inspected. Once approved for delivery, they go to you.

Pony Boys

Showpony was founded by the co-owners of Wier / Stewart, a strategic creative firm specializing in brand development work. They are also our neighbors. Say “hi” when you are here.
