Fabric, finish, and food brands live or die on samples. The form should ask which SKU or swatch, when they need it, and a ship-to with ZIP or postcode so the studio is not sending the wrong colourway to the wrong coast.
Studio or warehouse email, not brand marketing.
Vague ‘blues’ requests waste stock.
One click from the colour they are staring at.
Mark the row done when the tracking number exists.
A sample request is a fulfilment ticket dressed as marketing. US interior designers expect swatch cards in days; UK specifiers expect a similar turnaround to a studio postcode. You still need to know whether this is a live project or a student who wants a free box of everything.
The request pack’s date field is useful as ‘needed by’ for photoshoots. Quantity can live in details until you add a number input on the form.
Wrong SKU on a sample is how you lose the spec to a competitor who shipped the right chip.
Charge a refundable sample fee later if abuse shows up; do not put card fields on this page.
PDP ‘order a sample’ buttons on Shopify are great. Static brand sites still need this.
one form, SKU field pre-filled if you edit the copied value per page.
Use when you already have a cart. This form is for sites that do not.
Still real. Log those giveaways in the same dashboard if you can.
Route journalists to the press inquiry form; samples for coverage can still use this SKU field.
Many material brands are Webflow or plain HTML. Publish the form under each swatch grid and change only the hidden SKU if you split pages.
US ZIP and UK postcode determine which warehouse picks. Put that rule in operations, not in JavaScript you will forget.
Policy in copy. Enforce in the dashboard by searching email.
Ask country up front. Customs on cosmetics and food is not a footnote.
Say so in essential_after-style copy on the page; this form does not process returns.
Use request type and ask for a company website in details.
