IT'S FRIDAY 

 

ESTIMATED DATE

So we just got word back from our manufacturer that they're set to finish all the keychains by June 15th and will ship it out to us June 16th. Give a week or so for the shipment to get to San Diego and we're looking for the production order to be in our hands around June 23rd-24th. THAT VERY DAY... we will immediately begin our delivery process in order to get those Unclip Keychains in your hands before July! 

Everything is good so far and we'd like to thank you again for sticking with us through this whole Kickstarter journey. We really wouldn't know what to do if it weren't for the support of all of you. THANK YOU!

We'll check back in next week in an update to let you know that we're going to lock down the surveys so we can begin processing all the orders. Make sure to fill out your backerkit survey now if you haven't.

Survey Locking in 3...2...1
almost 10 years ago – Thu, May 26, 2016 at 11:08:21 PM

Just kidding.

Thanks to all of you who quickly filled out your backerkit surveys! over 93% of you have successfully filled out the surveys. That's awesome.

We're still currently in the production process and they should be finishing up in a week (fingers crossed). Like we said before, we are expected to receive the shipment in June and once we do, we'll immediately ship them out to you all! 

So you still have time to change your shipping addresses or whatnot. We'll keep you updated once we actually do lock down the surveys. Most likely, this will be when the shipment is on the way to us.

In other news:

We're prepping to relaunch our blog on our website next Wednesday (June 1st) and hope you can all check it out once we do! We'll be updating the blog weekly and we'll keep you updated on fresh content as well as new products (in the future) through our email newsletter. We hope you can check it out on the launch day and share with all your buddies. But rest assured backers, our first priority now is to get you your unclips. 

Hope all is well with all of you.

Let us know if you have any questions, concerns, or motivation because everybody loves motivation.

Best,

Charlie

Manufacturing Process
almost 10 years ago – Thu, May 19, 2016 at 09:44:11 PM

Hello beautiful backers!

So since the last update, we've confirmed with our manufacturer to move onto production! 

We're so happy to say that we're now currently awaiting for the production to finish and everything looks like it is set. 

We're currently finishing up the packaging from another manufacturer and they should be sending that to our Unclip manufacturer as soon as they finish it. As expected, we are looking to receive our shipment in June since it takes some time for the goods to travel here. 

You can bet that we'll keep you updated through this process as well. 

Looking Back

Looking back at just a couple months ago when we found out our previous manufacturer couldn't finish the production, which devastated us, makes us proud that we made the best out of the situation and did the best we could to make sure all of our backers would get their rewards. 

There will always be obstacles moving forward, but that's what makes this whole journey so exciting, and we're glad to have such strong supporters (YOU) behind us! 

We are forever grateful to you! 

Moving Forward

Our main priority is obviously to get all of you the Unclip keychains you deserve, but we've also been working to build the company as well. We actually have some cool news to share with you in the future, but we'll just focus on fulfilling your orders first ;) 

We are launching our blog on our website on June 1st and we hope you can check that out once it's live. It'll consist of features of cyclists/musicians/artists that we feel resonate with our brand and what we stand for. We'll link you to the blogs in the upcoming updates so if you have some free time once it's live, you can check it out.

This project was the first stepping stone into creating progressively functional and well-designed products for all of you and we urge you to continue the support as we grow. 

Always

Always feel free to contact us and give us any feedback/comments you feel would help better our process and just who we are as a company. We depend on the critique of our supporters to continue creating and progressing products specially designed with you all in mind. 

Our inbox is always welcoming and free for you to hit up. Let's build our company together. 

Best,

Charlie

The Samples Have Arrived!
almost 10 years ago – Thu, May 12, 2016 at 12:11:58 AM

BACKERS REJOICE

 So the samples arrived yesterday evening and they are solid! 

Here are some pictures:

 One "issue"

Not really an issue. So the samples came with a rivet instead of a Chicago screw-post. There must've been a communication mix-up with our manufacturer. After receiving these samples, we immediately told our manufacturers to replace all the rivets with removable Chicago screw-posts so that all of you can interchange the straps and loop your key rings in whenever you want. It's a super simple fix and they said they'll make sure to do that. 

 
Moving Forward

Now that we received our samples and everything is good to go (minus the small adjustment), we're about ready to start production. What this means for you is that after we confirm that the samples are good to go, production will begin and take about 2-3 weeks to finish. So things are looking up and we'll do our best to get your Unclip Keychains to you all around June. 

We just wanted to take this time to thank all of you for patiently waiting and understanding the circumstances we've been dealing with. It's thanks to all the positive support from all of our backers that we were able to continue pushing and do our best.

In Addition

We'd be honored to get some feedback on our website. If you have some time, take a look around on our website and get a feel for it. Let us know in the comments below what your thoughts are (bad/good/great) and any improvements you'd like to see. We're about to add in some new features coming up soon so if there is anything you particularly like about our website, we'll focus more on keeping those features around. Just click the picture below and that'll send you straight through.
