What is the difference between the tiers? +
Tier 1 is the digital book only. Tier 2 adds the printed hardcopy. Tier 3 adds the full resource bundle — tech pack templates, editable SVG files, the Tech Pack Manuscript, and the Manufacturer & Contact Directory. Tier 4 adds four 1-on-1 consulting calls with André on top of everything in Tier 3. Every tier includes the Build Checklist for free.
When do I get my digital files? +
Instantly. All digital files are delivered to the email used at checkout immediately after purchase — no waiting, no manual steps. The physical book ships separately within 3–5 business days.
What format is the book in? +
The digital version is a PDF — readable on any device, phone, tablet, or computer. The physical version is a printed hardcopy, First Edition 2026, shipped to your door.
Do I need special software to use the SVG files? +
The SVG files are fully editable in Adobe Illustrator — just go to File → Open and select the file. Every element is editable: text, shapes, colors, and measurements. If you don't have Illustrator, the PDF version of the tech pack template is included and can be used as a reference to fill in manually.
Is the Manufacturer & Contact Directory current? +
Yes. The directory contains 95 vetted contacts across 27 categories — the same manufacturers and suppliers used to build Engineered By Dré. These are real contacts, organized by category, with sourcing notes included.
Can I upgrade from Tier 3 to Tier 4? +
Yes. Your original $250 Tier 3 purchase is credited toward Tier 4 — you pay only $750 to upgrade. Email shop@engineeredbydre.com with your original order number before purchasing and the credit will be applied.
Who is this book for? +
Anyone who is serious about building a real brand — not a side project, not a trend, a brand built to last. Whether you are starting from zero or already selling and want to tighten your systems, this book was written for the builder who is willing to do the work the right way.
