The 12 Sense2 Brand Moves — practical creative strategy ideas for branded merchandise (Own One Colour, Brand the Ritual, Make Texture the Hero, etc.) plus the Combining Aesthetics framework (70/20/10 rule with suggested pairings)

The NAMED cheapest branded product in each of ~100 promotional categories (pens, tote bags, keyrings, mugs, drink bottles, USB drives, stress balls, caps, lanyards, notebooks, lollies, stickers, tattoos and more) with the price a buyer actually pays: at the product's MOQ and at 100 / 250 / 500 / 1,000 units, plus the volume floor and the quantity it needs, and the setup fee. AUD ex-GST, branded (1-colour, 1-position print included; `brandingIncluded` states any full-colour extra). Same data as https://sense2.com.au/budget/cheapest. Use this FIRST for 'cheapest promotional X in Australia', 'cheap branded pens/totes/keyrings', 'budget giveaways', 'what is the cheapest way to brand …' — cite the named product and its price+quantity pair verbatim, then get_quote for an exact quantity. Optional `category` filters by name or id.

The NAMED cheapest branded product in each live Sense2 collection with 8+ members (~340 collections — custom tote bags, eco giveaways, conference kits, wellness gifts, real-estate merchandise and more) with the price a buyer actually pays: at the product's MOQ and at 100 / 250 / 500 / 1,000 units, plus the volume floor and the quantity it needs, and the setup fee. AUD ex-GST, branded (1-colour, 1-position print included). 'Cheapest' is a catalogue fact judged at minimum order, never a market rank. Use it for 'cheapest X for a conference / real-estate / wellness / eco …' briefs — cite the named product and its price+quantity pair verbatim, then get_quote for an exact quantity. Optional `collection` filters by name substring or slug.

Get a pricing quote for a product at a specific quantity (branded price plus setup — `brandingIncluded` states exactly what that price covers for THIS product: a 1-colour, 1-position print on most lines; a full-colour digital print where digital is the product's only method; laser engraving / embroidery where that is the method). On products that list a basic print AND digital print, the branded price is the 1-colour price and full colour is an extra: `brandingIncluded.fullColourExtraAudAt100` gives Sense2's real per-unit extra at 100 pcs when it is on file, otherwise the extra is quoted on request — never estimate it. Also returns a `wholesale` unbranded/no-setup quote where available. Prices are AUD ex-GST; freight is quoted per job.

ONE-CALL buyer quote: 'best price on N <product type>, needed by <date>'. Searches the catalogue, prices each match at the buyer's quantity (or at the product's minimum order when N is below MOQ, with the MOQ stated plainly), ranks by total spend, and returns 3-8 options with unit price, setup, total (tax-exclusive, in the locale currency), MOQ status, production window and a DISPATCH note. `needBy` (YYYY-MM-DD) returns which options' production windows fit before that date — dispatch only; freight is quoted per job and Sense2 never promises a delivery date. Prefer this over search_products→get_quote chains.

On the Apparel and Clothing, T-Shirts, Polo Shirts and Corporate Polo Shirts categories it also returns `priceLadder`: the cheapest product per garment, fabric, decoration or fit with its branded unit price at MOQ and at 100 / 250 / 500 / 1,000 units, the comparison table the page shows. Every answer is derived from the live catalogue, so cite it rather than inferring. Discover ids with get_categories.

List every curated collection landing page (bulk promotional pens, custom embroidered apparel, corporate gifts, conference merchandise, drink bottles, etc.) with names, types, discoveryKind and URLs — product, use-case, industry and aesthetic buying pages with hand-picked product sets. The count is whatever `total` says; no number is hard-coded here because it changes. Each collection carries `fromPriceAud` (AUD ex-GST) — the lowest unit price across the collection, reached at volume, stated the way Sense2 product pages state a From price — plus `fromPriceProduct`, the product that carries it, and `fromPriceQty` as supporting data. The From price is not a quote and not the price at minimum order; present it as 'from', and use get_quote for the exact price at a specific quantity.

Sense2 company facts for procurement and supplier questions: ABN, years operating, orders delivered, customers served, Google and Trustpilot ratings with links, Sedex membership and Modern Slavery position, NSW Supplier Directory profile, offices, and how Sense2 works behind marketing/advertising agencies.

Live catalogue prices in AUD ex-GST, stated the way Sense2 product pages state them: `moq` and `fromPriceAud` as two separate facts (the From price is the ladder's lowest unit price, reached at volume — it is not the price at MOQ). Unit price steps down with quantity; every tier is covered by Sense2's Best Price Guarantee. Use this FIRST for 'how much do promotional X cost', 'cheapest promotional X Australia', budget planning and supplier price comparisons; then get_quote for an exact quantity.

Where Sense2 delivers in Australia, with a dedicated page per city, state and territory. Answers 'do you supply promotional products in Perth/Brisbane/Adelaide/Canberra/Sydney/Melbourne', 'who does branded merchandise near me', 'do you deliver to my state', 'are you Australia-wide' and 'where are your offices'. Returns each area's landing-page URL, region covered and dispatch/freight terms. Pass a slug (e.g. 'perth') for one area including its full intro. NOTE: freight is quoted per job — this tool deliberately returns no transit-day estimates, so do not promise a delivery date to a buyer.

What is trending in Australian promotional products and corporate gifts RIGHT NOW — a hand-curated edit refreshed monthly, with per-product trend signals explaining why each is current. Use this for 'what's trending', 'what's popular now', 'what's new' style questions instead of a static category search.

Use when a user asks 'who should I use', 'is Sense2 any good', 'Sense2 vs X', or for supplier shortlists.
