MERCH

Create Striking Merch

An integrated approach to merch ensures consistency across marketing materials.

The FPW Merch division is a unique extension of the FPW Media creative agency. Through our merch department, we can bring to bear a fully developed product line along with fully developed product packaging—not only generating concepts for merch, but overseeing every aspect of the manufacturing process.

FPW Merch was launched with one simple goal: Ensure that all branding and messaging would stay consistent when translated to real-world applications. Oftentimes, tradeshow activations, the hat a customer wears, or a pen—a cheap and simple giveaway option—are overlooked or marginalized as they fit into the broader marketing landscape. At FPW, we believe this a massively missed opportunity for impactful marketing experiences. It is this ethos that drove us to create FPW Merch, functioning to ensure that all in-person marketing experiences are consistent and cohesive with the company’s overall marketing message. By integrating design, branding, production, and fulfillment across one company, we are able to manage in-person marketing asset creation from start to finish.

Embroidery / Screen Print

With facilities in both Eugene and Portland, we have the resources to put your brand on any material, in any color, and in any quantity—at an exceptional pace! Our embroidery services will throw your merch into the spotlight with the use of metallic or glow-in-the-dark thread, trendy patches, or classic woven labels. With a variety of screen printing techniques (including direct to garment and heat transfer), ink options (water-based, plastisol, and discharge ink), and both spot color and simulated process printing—we are your ideal resource for memorable, quality, branded merch.

Sourcing

Unique, high-achieving organizations should never be represented by lackluster merchandise. FPW Media provides access to the products of your dreams, giving you control over every detail—including the tiniest button! With our local, national, and global direct distributor and fabricator relationships, we have the connections to provide you with quality, brand-name merchandise that fits your bill perfectly. Whether you need common office supplies in a unique color, a specialty treat packaged in a specific shape, or a thingamabob that has yet to be invented; we will partner with you to produce merchandise that embodies the essence of your company.

Fulfillment & Tradeshow

Our cumulative 18,000 square feet of facility space is at your disposal! Whether you require our storage services to organize, inventory, and maintain your stock of employee apparel, or if you need us to completely oversee an e-commerce store, fulfilling custom orders as needed—we’ve got your back. We are happy to take this process off your hands by handling the inventory and shipping processes in-house directly after manufacturing. We will not only organize and ship out your e-commerce orders, but we will do the same for any tradeshow assets. Whatever giveaway items you require, we will manufacture them, organize them, and ship them directly to your tradeshow location along with a return label, so that you can ship any surplus back to our warehouse for inventory and storage purposes.

From drawing his own comic books at age 5, to crafting stop-motion shorts using his parents Sony CCD TRV-43 at age 9, to learning Adobe After Effects at age 12 to create his own Star Wars fan films, and eventually to filming and editing documentary style vlogs following the bands he drummed in throughout his teenage years, EJ Olson always had a passion for creating through a visual medium. He's as meticulous as he is boisterous, and above all values connecting with those he's creating with on a genuine level. He remains active as a musician, writing and recording with several groups in his spare time, and keeps his passion for music at the forefront of his life by shooting music videos and live events. If he's not filming or editing, you're liable to find him writing, drumming, sipping a glass of bourbon, yelling at the TV during an NBA game, or having a laugh with a few of his best friends.

Tyler
Tyler Chase
Merch Manager
Tyler is a home-grown Oregon boy. Having been born in the state's capital and spending the majority of his life in the Eugene area, he has grown pretty biased to all things Pacific Northwest. When he's not focused on the merchandise division of FPW, he can often be found cruising a back road on his motorcycle, out on a hike with his family, or doing some woodworking around his garage. Tyler has a background in corporate insurance sales, where he learned that no client is too large or too small to build a lasting relationship with, and he has carried this mindset into his role in the Merch division.

Lizbeth Ball
Executive Assistant
Before moving to Eugene, Oregon for school, Lizbeth lived in the small, rural town of Glendale, Oregon. Though small, this town offered her the opportunity to grow as a storyteller. From working at her mom’s food truck to participating in sports and extracurricular activities (such as softball and 4-H), she learned she could find an interesting story wherever she went. Attending the University of Oregon on an academic scholarship, her love for storytelling turned into an academic endeavor. As an advertising and journalism student, she was able to learn from talented professors and explore the various realms of media. At FPW Media, she continues to learn more about the art of storytelling and the mediums used to tell a visual story. In her spare time, she enjoys watching just about any movie with her twin sister, exploring the outdoors, painting, dining, and writing.
