Cascade Mountain Tech (new company)
I am the CEO of Cascade Mountain Tech. We make and source outdoor products for major retailers such as Costco, Sam's Club, Wal-mart and many more.
Is female, ages 25 - 65 years old. This person is a walker/hiker and enjoys being outside. Income level is middle to upper income.
The retailer/buyer that will be purchasing these poles and selling them in thier retail stores, wants a design that appeals to the target audience above. She provided a webite for us to look at graphics that she thought would be appropriate for the walking poles. Check out the Website http://www.ameandlulu.com, then look at the women's golf and tennis accessories for graphic inspiration.
I have also attached a sample of a graphic for the walking poles, for your review. The graphic needs to be 13" X 2.25". The graphic will be located just below the hand grip of the walking pole. Please see the attached sample graphic files. The retailer/buyer also stated that she would like to see nature prints/graphics such as leaves, flowers, ferns etc.... on the walking poles.
Feel free to provide designs that do not include the nature prints. I want to provide a few different designs in addition to the nature requirements detailed above. The walking poles are used for hiking/trekking. Check out the attached link of a walking pole for your reference. http://www.rei.com/product/782129
Good luck!! Rick
