We got asked recently how do I create my own brand from this great product idea I have?

Well, there are many roads including going back to education to learn about sports design, build your own brand through crowdfunding, contact factories directly, or get it designed by a consultancy.

Consultancies are a great way to start your own brand. Here are our top 10 sports equipment design consultancies.

Of course, we are also always happy to give advice: [email protected].
