# Campaign Brief — "The Suede Edit" (Novasuede™ + Ultrasuede™)

**Requested by Steve, 2026-08-26.** "Campaign on novasuede and ultrasuede and their benefits with links to collections." Based on new arrivals, using the last email template. Constant Contact.

## Template (reuse, do NOT reinvent)
- Model builder: `data/campaign-drafts/build-classics.mjs` — self-contained `.mjs` emitting the **"Commercial-Edit" template** (600px, Georgia serif, #f3f1ec bg, gold accent #9a7b3f, DW masthead "TO THE TRADE · SINCE 2003", 3-up product cards, category chips, footer with {{unsubscribe_url}}/{{update_profile_url}}).
- Last verified campaign: `the-classics-VERIFIED-2026-08-18.html`.
- Clone that structure; swap content to the two suede lines.

## VERIFIED live data (checked 2026-08-26)
Collections all 200 (note: canonical host is **www.**designerwallcoverings.com — use www to avoid the 301):

(Re-pull products.json at build time to confirm the current image src per handle; some ultra_* images are on the /products/ path not /files/.)

## Benefits copy (the "and their benefits" ask — the differentiator vs the classics build)
Add a benefits band (icon/label list or short bullets) BEFORE the product sections:
- **Cleanable & stain-resistant** — spot-clean with soap and water; holds up to real-world use.
- **Commercial-grade durability** — high double-rub abrasion resistance; dual-purpose wallcovering + upholstery + panels.
- **Colorfast & non-fading** — engineered microfiber keeps its tone.
- **Breathable, lightweight, easy to work** — wraps panels and walls seamlessly, no crocking like real suede.
- **176 Novasuede colors / full Ultrasuede range** — one material, a complete palette.
- **To the trade** — memo samples + trade pricing.
Keep claims conservative/defensible (no specific rub-count unless confirmed in dw_unified spec).

## Gates & rules
- Run `lib/leak-deny.js` (private-label guard) + `lib/settlement-gate.js` on final HTML (suede is low-risk but enforce).
- Verify EVERY href returns 200 (www host) before staging.
- **HARD GATE — sending is send-to-list.** Build + stage the draft and CREATE the Constant Contact DRAFT via the cc-agent (:9820, Kamatera) ONLY as a draft. The actual **send/schedule draws a gated memo to `~/.claude/yolo-queue/pending-approval/`** — never auto-send.
- Output: `the-suede-edit-<date>.html` + `.png` render in `data/campaign-drafts/`, plus the pending-approval send memo.
