FAQ

What is the Color Shock Drop Ship Program?

This program is designed to offer web-based and retail opportunities for your store without the need to carry any inventory.

You sell the items, and we produce them and ship direct to your customer.

How do I get started?

We create an assortment of designs that you can offer in-store and on your website. You do not need to inventory anything.

Once designs are approved by Licensing, we will provide you with a private store that’s password protected to place your order. This store will also give you access to your web images and descriptions.

When you have the products on your store for sale we build and ship a sign showing your dropship offering for in store display. The sign contains QR codes that link directly to your website so that your customer can easily place their order directly with you from in the store.

How much should I retail the dropship product for?

That is completely up to you. We will supply you with a list of each item with the wholesale cost of each design and an MSRP with a minimum of 25% profit margin. You can offer them on your website and in your store for whatever price you like. 25% is extremely low to comparable products online.

We just got an order on our website. What do I do next?

You will generate the order on our secure site, including the customer’s shipping information. We’ll use that information to ship the sign directly to your customer.

Once the order is placed, how long will it take to deliver?

We ship all orders from our warehouse within two business days.

They will ship via UPS ground from our facility in Chicago. Normally, your customer should receive their order within seven days of placing their order.

Who pays for shipping to the customer?

You will collect the shipping cost from your customer when they place the order through your website or in-store purchase, or you could offer FREE Shipping and work that into the cost of the product.

When do we pay you for the order?

Once the order is shipped, you will receive an invoice for the order based on your current terms with CDI. The order number generated from the CDI site will be the PO Number used for billing.

We may need some help promoting these items. What do you offer to help promote them?

We can create artwork for social media ads that we can customize for your store. You can use these to publicize the signs on all of your social media outlets.

What quality are the lawn signs? Can they get wet?

All our signs are made of quality weatherproof corrugated plastic to withstand the elements. Yes, they can get wet.

They are cut to shape for a custom look.

They include heavy-duty metal “H” stakes for easy installation.
