FAQ

  • Q: What types of businesses do you work with?

    A: We love supporting small businesses, side hustlers, and anyone chasing a big idea — from tradesmen and realtors to boutique owners and event vendors. If you’ve got a vision, we’re here to help bring it to life.

  • Q: I need everything for an event — can you help with that?

    A: Absolutely! Whether it's a trade show, launch party, or vendor booth, we can supply and coordinate signage, branded merch, displays, and more. We even offer setup and storage options if you need the full works.

  • Q: Do you only work locally in the Treasure Valley?

    A: Nope! While we’re proudly based in the Treasure Valley, we serve clients all over the U.S. Some of our services are even available for shipping or digital delivery — and yes, we travel for events too!

  • Q: What’s the turnaround time on custom projects?

    A: It depends on the project scope and what’s needed. Simple print items might be done in a few days, while full booth setups may take a couple of weeks. We'll always give you a timeline upfront so there are no surprises.

  • Q: Can I order just a few items, or do you only take on big packages?

    A: We do both! Whether you need a fresh batch of business cards or you're launching a full rebrand, we're happy to help. No project is too small — or too bold.

  • Q: Do I need to know exactly what I want before booking?

    A: Not at all! Part of our job is helping you figure that out. Bring whatever ideas, questions, or inspo you have — we’ll talk through the rest together.

  • What is the Open House Mystery Box exactly?

    It’s a monthly marketing tool for realtors, vendors, and event hosts who want to build buzz and collect leads in a fun, interactive way. Each box follows a surprise theme and includes locally sourced products, a custom QR code, and everything you need to turn event traffic into future clients — without adding extra work to your plate.

  • Are all boxes the same?

    They follow the same format and theme, but the actual contents vary slightly. For example, in our coffee-themed box, each person receives the same amount of coffee but from different small-batch roasters — it’s all about surprise and variety.

  • Who is this box for?

    Although we launched this product with our Realtor line, it's designed for realtors, vendors, and small business owners who want to create meaningful engagement and collect leads — while offering guests something fun and local to remember you by.

  • How does the QR code work?

    Each box includes a custom QR code that’s unique to you — and it stays yours. Every time someone scans it, they’re taken to a themed entry form where they guess what’s inside the box and submit their name and contact info. All entries are automatically added to your personal lead sheet, which grows month after month with each event you host.

    We also include 6 manual entry cards and a matching ballot box in every box for guests who prefer to enter by hand. If you notice manual entries are more popular in your area, we offer bulk packs of entry forms that can be shipped to you as needed.

  • Will I know the theme before ordering?

    Nope — and that’s the whole point! The theme and contents are a mystery each month. Only the realtor and the person who receives the box know what’s inside — and it stays a surprise until someone reveals it. We only shared this month’s theme (Emotional Support Coffee) for the soft launch to show how it works.

    The mystery builds hype and keeps people checking back to see what’s inside. It gets guests engaged, encourages social media reveals, and puts a spotlight on the small businesses featured. Some months might include seasonal or holiday-themed goodies, but every box brings a new surprise — and that’s what makes it so fun.

  • Can I customize what goes in my box?

    Nope — and here’s why: the surprise is the whole point! Each box is carefully curated around a rotating mystery theme, and part of the fun (for you and your guests) is not knowing exactly what’s inside. Customizing would take away the excitement, the social media buzz, and the whole experience we’ve built this around. If you’re looking for something branded or fully custom, this probably isn’t the right fit — and that’s okay! [Stay tuned Bold Boxes Coming September 2025]

  • What’s included in each box?

    Every box includes:

    - A prize item (or items) sourced from small/local businesses

    - A custom QR code sticker for lead capture (pre-applied to your box)

    - Manual entry cards + a matching themed ballot box

    - Instructional inserts to explain how it works

    - Access to our Social Media Template Library

    - A surprise theme that guests won't forget

    Each box follows the same format, but the contents vary depending on the monthly theme.

  • What’s an NFC Tap Card?

    It’s your modern-day business card — but smarter. Just tap your card to someone’s phone and your custom profile instantly pops up. You can share your contact info, portfolio, reviews, booking links, social media, and more — all without anyone needing an app.

  • How does it work?

    Each card uses built-in NFC (Near Field Communication) technology — the same stuff used for Apple Pay. Just tap it to the back of most smartphones, and your profile link opens automatically. It’s fast, seamless, and way more memorable than handing someone a paper card.

  • Do I need an app or subscription?

    Nope! No app, no monthly fees, and no subscriptions. Once your card is set up, it’s yours to use forever. If you ever need to update your info, just reach out — we’ll handle it for you through our dashboard. You don’t have to mess with any logins or tech stuff — we’ve got you.

  • How long do they last?

    NFC cards don’t expire and don’t require batteries. As long as you keep it in good shape, it’ll work event after event — and you can update your links anytime.

  • What can I link to my Tap Card?

    You can link to just about anything:

    - Contact info (click-to-save)

    - Social media accounts

    - Portfolio or website

    - Google reviews

    - Booking forms

    - Menu, WiFi info, or service list

    You get a digital profile that you can update anytime — no reprints required.

  • Can I customize my card?

    Absolutely. We offer two card types, both fully customizable:

    - Essential – Our sleek, minimalist card with your name, logo, and brand colors. Clean, professional, and still packs a punch.

    - Elevated – Our premium option that includes everything from the Essential plus up to 3 custom QR codes designed and printed on the back. Perfect if you want to share booking links, review pages, menus, or anything extra.

    Both options are designed to represent you — and if you need help creating something bold or eye-catching, we’ve got you covered.

  • How long does it take to receive my stickers?

    Once you submit your photos and customization info, you’ll typically receive your proof within 3–5 business days. Once approved, stickers ship within 5–7 business days.

  • Can I request changes to my sticker design?

    Yes! Each order includes up to 3 rounds of design tweaks to make sure everything looks just right.

  • What kind of photos should I send?

    Clear, well-lit photos of each person you want cartooned. Front-facing shots work best! You can upload selfies or team photos—just make sure faces are visible.

  • How many people can be included?

    Your order includes 1–4 people by default. Want to add more? Reach out for a custom quote—we’ve got you.

  • Can I reorder more stickers later?

    Yes! Once your design is finalized, we keep it on file so you can reorder anytime without paying the design fee again.

  • Can I use my stickers outdoors?

    Absolutely! They’re printed on high-quality vinyl with a subtle 3D texture, making them water-resistant and durable.

  • Can I get a digital version of my cartoon?

    Right now, this offering is print-only—but digital add-ons may be available soon!
