Inside the Assessment

What You're Actually Scoring

The assessment covers four real areas: your business stage and production volume, the resources and expertise you already have in-house, what your production actually requires in terms of quality control and complexity, and how involved you want to be day to day. Nothing here is about which route is "better." It's about which one fits your brand as it stands today.

About the Author

Built by Someone Who's Actually Made This Call

I'm Nailya, founder of CMT Studio. I've watched brands choose the wrong production route more than once, not because they made a bad decision, but because nobody laid out the real trade-offs clearly before they had to choose. This assessment is the version of that conversation I wish more people had before committing to either route.
