The complete sample report.

A real investigation, start to finish: a printed wooden watch, evaluated for the US and Canadian markets. Same discipline and structure you'd receive for your own product — this is the whole thing, not a teaser.

The investigated printed wooden wristwatch.
The verdict, at a glance
Product
Printed wooden wristwatch · US + Canada
Attractive
Bold print, gift potential, visible customization, approachable-looking MOQ.
Found
Same image across Alibaba & AliExpress; comparable-product complaints; unconfirmed landed cost; 50-piece customization minimum.
Verdict
GO — for a small custom pilot. Negotiate the MOQ, approve samples, validate costs.

A GO for a pilot is not a GO for inventory. A supported PASS is a valid outcome too.

Pages from the verdict

The investigation, page by page.

Nine steps from "would you sell this?" to a decision you can act on.

What each part answers

A report is a set of answered questions.

Product opportunity

"Is this genuinely comparable to what customers already buy?"

Market & competition

"Is there real demand — or just a lot of listings?"

Supplier screening

"Who can supply it, on what terms, and how exclusive is it?"

Unit economics

"After landed cost, fees, ads and returns — is anything left?"

Customer complaints

"What do buyers of similar products actually hate?"

Risk & compliance

"What could stop this — safety, batteries, IP, documents?"

Differentiation

"How would we make it genuinely worth choosing?"

Supplier messages

"What exactly do I send the supplier to get real answers?"

The verdict

"GO or PASS — and the reasoning that got us there."
