Strategic Development Advisory for Manufacturing in Korea

Strategic Development Advisory for Manufacturing in Korea
Expert advisory support for brands developing skincare and beauty products in Korea who want to manage the lab relationship themselves. We provide strategic input across product direction, formulation, packaging and key commercial decisions so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
This is not full project management. Instead, we act as your Korea-side advisory layer, helping you make better decisions at each stage of development.
How It Works
- Kick-Off Consultation (1 hour, $300 USD): we review your concept, product lineup and development approach and assess whether this advisory model is the right fit for your project.
- Advisory Engagement: following the consultation, we recommend a tailored advisory structure based on your project, timeline and level of support required.
- Ongoing Strategic Support: you manage the manufacturer relationship directly, with our input at key decision points across development.
How This Differs From Our Full-Service Offering
- You manage the lab, manufacturers and suppliers directly rather than us coordinating on your behalf.
- We provide guidance, not execution across formulation, packaging, commercial and production decisions.
- No supplier or production management - you retain full control of relationships and timelines.
- Greater direct involvement compared to full project management.
What We Can Support You With
- Product and range direction (what to launch, how to structure your lineup)
- Review and refinement of development briefs before submission to the lab
- Guidance on formulation direction and ingredient positioning
- Feedback on manufacturer responses, samples and proposed next steps
- Packaging and format decisions in light of cost, usability and MOQ constraints
- Commercial decision-making across pricing, complexity and market fit
What This Service Does Not Include
- Direct manufacturer or supplier management
- Translation or day-to-day lab communication
- Packaging sourcing or coordination
- Production management or logistics
- Regulatory filings or compliance work
Why Work With STYLE STORY
- Korea-based expertise across product development, manufacturing, retailing, distribution and decision-making for global beauty and wellness brands
- Independent advisory (we are not tied to specific labs, manufacturers or factories)
- Commercially grounded guidance, not just theoretical advice
- Support that helps you avoid costly mistakes and unnecessary complexity
Who This Is For
Founders and teams who want to manage their own manufacturer relationships directly in Korea but would benefit from experienced input across product, formulation and commercial decisions throughout development.
This is particularly suited to brands who have the ability to fully manage a cosmetic development project from start to finish in-house but want to avoid trial-and-error decision-making.
