<strong><u>Background to Peppy's project</u></strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
After manufacturing metal furniture for a few years, the unforgiving economic climate and weight of the heavy materials needed for her pieces drove Peppy, the creator, to look for a more sustainable way forward. More about <a href="http://1111-fr.com" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>
This new project was inspired by a strong ambition to dispense with the constraints imposed by the creation of large pieces, and to generate new artistic opportunities exploiting Peppy's extensive experience.</p>

<strong><u>The organisation of the project</u></strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
After analysing the situation and reflecting on it, Peppy decided to launch this new adventure.</p>
<p>
* Creating small scale functional or ornamental home accessories: these are lightweight objects which lend themselves to being injected with individuality and creativity.</p>
<p>
* Using laser or waterjet cutting: Peppy has a wealth of experience in the use of computer-aided design (CAD) and is lucky enough to work alongside the very skilled metal-cutting expert John Steel, to whom she can subcontract this part of her work (he too practices in France, although his name does not indicate it...)</p>
<p>
* Reducing production costs, hence enabling Peppy to make her creations accessible to all budgets. Upon receipt, each piece is checked, finished, assembled as required, cleaned and quality controlled in her workshop.</p>

<strong><u>The choice of materials</u></strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
At first, exclusively the metal because Peppy has a good knowledge of the network. We also often recognized her the gift to bring a surprising sweetness to the metal. What sticks on the project. Most of the products will be in stainless steel, at first. This material is not the cheapest, but it is of a good value for money: its finish is elegant and completed. It's strong and offers the guarantee of a sustainable product. It also has the avatange to allow a fork(range) of interesting applications by its compatibility with liquids and foodstuffs. Food? Why?! Because the beloved sister of Peppy is a chief cook and because for and in dialogue with her, Peppy began to develop a range of products of art of entertaining. </p>

<p>
</p>
<p>
The project is tied up well. Perfect! But what that means a new type of products, says that he is going to need to conquer a quite new clientele. And for it, it is necessary to communicate, be known, and constituted a stock of products ready to be sent. All this carefully packaged by the custom-made packagings designed and realized in Normandy by ___.</p>
<p>
.... Peppy no longer suffers from backache and was able to finance her prototypes. These were tested and modified as necessary until the finished objects met her high expectations.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
However, the recent economic downturn has hindered the production of large volumes of stock as well as restricting marketing options. This led to Peppy considering the merits of using KisskissBankbank as a solution:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
> This campaign will enable the popularity of Peppy's products to be assessed</p>
<p>
> In return for any monetary contribution, sponsors will also benefit by qualifying to receive one or several of Peppy's home accessories dependent on the sum of money they pledge. This system of presale offers Peppy's creations at a very attractive and competitive price.</p>

<p>
</p>
<p>
<u><strong>The objective is to gather 2800 €:</strong></u></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
- 1800 € to enable the production of minimum stock: in order to lower manufacturing costs and allow rapid dispatch. A presale system is the most logical solution: it contributes directly to the production of</p>
<p>
stock which is based on real quantities. Furthermore, certain consumables, such as the custom-made packaging for mirrors, require a minimum order.</p>
<p>
- 500 € to help advertise Peppy's work and develop her clientele (creating an e-shop, internet referencing for more visibility in search engines, production of a catalog, videos)</p>
<p>
- 300 € to finance new prototypes, enabling expansion of the product range</p>
<p>
- 200 € to cover KissKiss BankBank's 5% commission fee and banking charges of 3%.</p>

<p>
<u><strong>What will happen dependent on the collected amount? </strong></u></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
- > If the above goal is reached by the deadline, Peppy secures all of the funds minus KKBB's commission and the banking charges.</p>
<p>
- > If the objective is not reached, the contributor recovers their donation</p>
<p>
- > If the goal is reached prior to the end of the deadline, a second objective can be set. Peppy's venture will then benefit from however much money was pledged, regardless of whether the second objective was reached. In this case, Peppy's objectives would evolve, towards producing more stock, financing the publishing of communication materials in the English language to enable sales to be exported (Peppy has various international contacts and has previously enjoyed exporting her work), investing in a tablet or laptop for the purposes of client facing activities.</p>
