You’ll connect directly with a member of Linton’s product development team. The call covers your product, your current stage, and whether the project scope is a fit for what Linton does. If it is, next steps are defined. If it isn’t, that’s confirmed on the first call.

The consultation is designed for e-commerce brands, Amazon sellers, retailers, and brand owners who are either developing a new product or looking to reduce manufacturing costs on an existing one. You don’t need a finished idea, as early-stage concepts are welcome.

No. The initial consultation is free. If you’re inquiring about the cost reduction program, the audit itself is also free. Linton only charges if confirmed savings are identified.

Linton typically responds within one business day. If you’d prefer to move faster, you can book directly on a team member’s calendar using the scheduling links.

Come prepared with your product category, your current stage — concept, prototype, or existing production — and any known cost or quality issues. Engineering specs and technical documentation are not required at this stage.

Yes. Many clients come to Linton with an existing supplier relationship. Linton can audit your current setup, renegotiate pricing, improve quality control, or benchmark alternative factories without necessarily replacing your current manufacturer.

Linton operates across Product Development & Manufacturing for 200+ product categories, including sports equipment, outdoor gear, kitchen products, electronics, toys and games, and pet products. For category-specific questions, the consultation is the right starting point.

Linton structures engagements with minimal upfront fees. The bulk of Linton’s compensation is tied to production outcomes — not to hourly work or deliverable milestones. For the cost reduction program, there is no charge unless verified savings are identified. Specific fee structure is discussed during the consultation based on project scope and category.

Linton is headquartered in the Philadelphia area and primarily serves U.S.-based brands, but also supports international e-commerce brands. Linton’s team operates across the U.S. with four overseas offices in China covering key manufacturing regions.

Linton is not a sourcing agent that identifies suppliers and exits, and not a design firm that delivers files and moves on. Linton stays engaged through engineering, factory management, quality control, and production. Accountability for the product’s performance doesn’t end at handoff — it runs through mass production.
