What will I need to Prepare and Sell the Wrappers?
Do I need to purchase anything?
We
recommend anyone planning on selling wrappers
should have:
•A
reliable email address, to ensure we
can always contact you and also to email you
order proofs. (If you plan on ordering electronic
wrappers, you will need an email capable of
handling attachment up to 10 MB, and with an
generous amount of storage. If you don't have
such an email address, we recommend signing
up for a free account at Yahoo!
Mail, for exclusive use for receiving wrapper
files.)
•A
Paper cutter or trimmer to cut out the wrappers.
We recommend buying one that is at least 12"
long to accommodate a full 8 1/2" x 11"
sheet of paper. Scissors are not recommended.
If
you will be wrapping candy, you'll need:
• A form of adhesive.
We recommend a glue stick or double sided tape.
•
A source for purchasing your candy bars.
Most people prefer a Warehouse/Bulk Supply store
such as Sam's Club or Costco, or a discount
store such as Walmart. If you need a lot of
candy bars, you may also be able to order them
online.
•
Foils? In you
want to include or offer foil on your wrapped
bars, you can purchase foils, here.
If
you will be shipping wrappers and/or wrapped candy,
you'll need:
•
Envelopes, mailers, boxes, tape, bubble
wrappers, etc., miscellaneous mailing supplies.
You should have some knowledge of shipping regulations
and should determine a method for packaging
the items ahead of time. You should be familiar
with You will also wrap the bars you will need
a form of adhesive such as a glue stick, double-stick
tape or a tape dispenser. Wrapping is simple
and quick, and illustrated wrapping instructions
will be included with each order and each type
of favor you order.
4. What
is the turnaround time? How long before my customer
gets their wrappers?
Many
customers inquire about our turnaround time, and
unfortunately there are many factors effecting
this, so it's difficult to give a clear answer.
In all cases, it depends on how quickly the order
is approved. Remember we don't even begin the
order until it is approved by you. And once your
receive your electronic or uncut wrappers it will
depend on how quickly you can complete the order.
We've
compiled this chart to help you estimate the overall
time frame.

will send you the initial proof no later,
and almost always much sooner than 24

paid, you should receive the print-ready
file within 12 hours |

be aware of when your customer needs their order.

5.
Will the wrappers have Whirlibird written on them?
We
typically include our website information on on
wrappers. If you have ordered form us before,
or browsed our website in-depthly, you will see
that we include a small tagline at the top of
each wrapper. When the candy is wrapped, the tagline
is invisible until the candy is unwrapped. (Taglines
are placed in the margins of goody bags, thank-you
notes, or invitations, and are visible, although
discreet.)
One
of the best things about our new program is that
we allow you to put your own custom "tag
line" on the bottom of every wrapper. It's
only $1.00 per design (no, NOT per wrapper!),
and a great investment to advertise yourself.
Use your phone numbers, email address of web site,
and you'll get free advertising with every wrapper!
Best of all, your customer will never know you
didn't make the wrappers yourself.
Whenever
your order, you will have the option of including
your own tag line. We are now also allowing resellers
to include the information on the bottom back
of the wrappers, where it will always be visible.
6.
Are there any restrictions or limitations as to
how I can resell, or use the files I purchase?
Generally
no, you can resell them as you see fit. However,
please bear in mind:

artwork and graphics remain the property of Whirlibird.
This means that when you purchase a design
electronically, or as an uncut wrapper, you are
not permitted to manipulate the design in any
way, electronically or otherwise.
This includes but is not limited to: using
a graphic-design or photo manipulation software
to change the design; using all or some of the
artwork in your own designs; removing the personalization
info in order to re-use the design or personalize
it yourself, or re-using it for another commercial
purpose.
In
other words, you may not use our wrappers for
any other commercial purpose, except for reselling
them. You do not own any of the artwork or designs
your purchase from us.
Whirlibird
forbids the mass-production on any design.
This condition is specific to our electronic wrappers,
and specifically forbids any person from producing
more then 1,000 copies on any wrapper design in
a 1-year period.
(For example - this condition is enacted to
prevent a distributor from requesting a generic
design, and mass-producing it with no set limit.
Any electronic design order from us, should
not be duplicated more than 1,000 times,
lest the purchaser be in violation of the Term
of Agreement.)
Whirlibird
forbids the selling of our wrappers, in any way
that would be in direct competition with us. At
the current time, Whirlibird holds a distinct
market on the auction site, eBay. we ask that
our consumers refrain from selling their products
on eBay. Please do not force our products to compete
against themselves - this not only creates unnecessary
competition, but creates an unfair cost environment
for the consumers. Whirlibird.com is a VERO member
on eBay.
Any
person caught in violation of these conditions,
is in violation of federal copyright laws. If
you are unsure of any of policies, please don't
