Done-For-You Merch: How Our Full-Service Plan Works
- Done-For-You VIP is a $105/mo plan where you send one design a month and we build the rest of the shop.
- We apply your design to 15 trending products, create front and back mockups on every color, and pick the top 6 colors per item.
- We write the titles, descriptions, and metadata, set optimal retail pricing from real sales data, and curate seasonal collections.
- You never touch inventory. Every order prints and ships direct to the buyer with free US shipping.
Most business owners who want custom merch do not want a second job managing an online store. Done-For-You merch solves that by handing the entire build to a real person instead of a set of DIY tools. At Bear Grips Pro Shops, the Done-For-You VIP plan is $105 a month. You send one design or logo, and a personal Pro Shop advisor takes it from there: product selection, mockups, copywriting, pricing, and layout. This post walks through exactly what that process looks like from the first design upload to a live shop.
What "done for you" actually means here
The phrase gets used loosely across the internet for everything from dropshipping templates to generic store themes you install yourself. Ours is different: a named advisor you can call, text, or email builds your shop by hand each month. You are not handed a template and a to-do list. You send one design, and the advisor does the setup work that would otherwise take hours of trial and error inside a self-service dashboard.
- You send: one design or logo file per month
- We do: product picks, mockups, colors, copy, pricing, layout, and seasonal curation
- You get: a live, ready-to-sell shop delivered every month
What happens to your design after you send it
Once your advisor has the file, the build runs in a set sequence:
- Your design is applied to 15 trending products, either your choice from the full catalog or our curated best-sellers for that month
- Front and back mockups are created on every product, on every color variant, which runs into the hundreds of individual mockups behind one shop refresh
- Our team picks the top 6 color variants per item for the strongest visual appeal, instead of leaving you to guess between two dozen shirt colors
- Titles, descriptions, and metadata are written for each product page
- Retail pricing is set using real sales data for the best mix of sales volume and profit

Bear Grips Pro Shops: Custom Apparel for Your Team. No Minimums. Free Shipping.Done-For-You VIP versus the other plans
| Plan | Price | Live products | Who builds the shop |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 3 | You, higher base price per item |
| Self-Service VIP | $59/mo | 200 | You, lowest base prices, full control |
| Done-For-You VIP | $105/mo | 250 | A personal advisor builds it monthly |
The gap between Self-Service VIP and Done-For-You VIP is not the product catalog, it is the labor. Self-Service gives you the tools. Done-For-You gives you the finished shop plus a person to call when something needs to change.
Seasonal curation without a marketing calendar
One of the quieter benefits of Done-For-You is timing. Cold-weather gear gets curated into the shop ahead of winter, warm-weather pieces surface in spring and summer, and the 15-product lineup rotates so the shop always looks current instead of static. Most business owners running their own store forget to do this until a customer asks why there are no hoodies in the collection in November. The advisor handles that calendar for you, along with the social media link preview (the image and text that shows up when your shop link is shared on social) so the shop looks finished the moment someone clicks through.
What you are actually paying for
Strip away the marketing language and Done-For-You VIP is paying for time. A vendor who builds their own shop on Self-Service VIP might spend 3 to 5 hours a month on product selection, mockup review, and copywriting, plus more time researching what to price things at. Done-For-You collapses that into one design upload and a monthly call, text, or email with your advisor. For a business owner already running a gym, a studio, or a company, that time is worth more than the $46 gap between the two VIP plans.

Start FreeFrequently Asked Questions
How often do I need to send a new design?
Once a month. Your advisor applies that design across the 15-product lineup and rebuilds the shop around it.
Do I pick the 15 products or does Bear Grips?
Either. You can choose your own top 15 collection, or let your advisor pick the trending best-sellers for that month.
Is there a setup fee on top of the $105/mo?
No. The $105 monthly plan covers the mockups, copywriting, pricing, and layout work every month.
Can I still talk to a real person if I have questions?
Yes. Done-For-You VIP includes a personal Pro Shop advisor you can reach by call, text, or email, which is the core difference from the self-service tiers.
