Hi, I'm Barbara Hobart
Specialist in Building Brands With Custom Products
I serve businesses who want to elevate their brand by identifying, creating, and manufacturing custom products and branded merchandise to build brand awareness and generate revenue.
Whether you need promotional products for your next event and need great SWAG to wow your customers... or if you want to build your retail brand and make some serious money, you're in the right place.
Let's work together to create the products that align with your vision.
BRANDING 101
If you're just starting out or want to know more about how to create a retail line of products, I created Branding 101, a Mini-Course to guide you through the benefits of branding and share the quick & easy process of elevating your brand through creating unique custom products.
The Free 4-part training introduces you to the concept of custom products, gives you plenty of ideas, and examples of how to create your own line of products.
Branding 101 Course
Make A Statement. Your Statement.
You love great SWAG. So do your customers.
There is no reason to settle for a plain, boring one-color logo slapped onto any old product.
There are thousands of options from which to choose, and I will help you sort through the clutter and offer you choices so you can select the best product for your budget and your brand.
It's easy:
We offer low minimums, fast turnaround (usually about a week) and best of all, our almost all of our products are proudly printed right here in the USA.

Custom Products & Product Development
When The Opry Entertainment Group wanted something unique for their new camo line, they told us they wanted a "6-can belt cooler," and HomePlates gladly obliged. This is what we created, designed, and manufactured for Blake Shelton's Ole Red brand.
