Start by entering-

• Techpack /Design title.

Keywords work similarly to social media hashtags. They help you and your team easily locate a particular techpack through filter search. You can add your own custom keywords based on season, details, silhouette, factory name, etc.

In this section, you will define your techpack share settings with your manufacturers, community of designers and brands on Techpacker. 

•  Invite manufacturers and share your techpack with them. Enter their email(s) and confirm by clicking the add to list button. An invitation email will be sent out inviting them to access the techpack. 

• If your manufacturer has a Techpacker account, the shared techpack(s) will be added inside a new folder (named after your brand) and automatically created on their Organization page. In case they do not have an account on Techpacker, they can sign-up using the link provided in the invitation email.

•  You can choose to make your techpack public or private. Public techpacks are visible to Techpacker’s community via Explore library and can be accessed through search engines like Google.

That's it! Your techpack settings are now complete. You can edit them anytime by clicking on the  gear icon located on top of your techpack preview card.

Finish by clicking "done" or anywhere outside the pop-up area. Your new techpack will now be ready on your techpack dashbaord. Click on the techpack to continue editing or adding design details as cards.
