As a middle person, one usually orders blank merchandise for their client, has it imprinted and directly shipped to their client. It's a rarity that the middle person sees anything aside from a virtual mockup of the product.
Once in awhile, a distributor or middle person will be sent a finished postcard or pen from their client (speaking from experience). Once in awhile you will receive a pre-production rendition of how an entire lot will print before the purchased quantity is set up on the machine to review. Sometimes at the middle person's expense they will have 1-piece of the finished quantity drop shipped to them as a keepsake (the customer orders 1000-pieces and the middle person will order 1001, paying for the additional piece and freight to themselves).
Do your clients usually give the gift of their finished promo to you as a distributor or do you usually purchase 1 for yourself under the table? What do you believe the percentage is as a distributor?
