Calculating Print Job Costs

You can’t help but smile whenever you walk through the lobby. The shop looks quite a bit different today than it did when that faded black and white picture on the wall was taken. In recent years you’ve embraced digital printing and added ERP technology. Yes, you’ve taken business into the new era. Pop would be proud - so, why are you still creating quotes like its 1979? 

You vs Them

ERP and other business systems have their place within any company. These applications eliminate manual input, manage vast amounts of data, promote efficiency, and accelerate productivity. All very good things for business. 

But something else that is good for business (in fact great for business) are sales.  And these applications, as robust as they might be, are simply not designed for creating sales quotes. Maybe this explains why so many printing companies continue to rely on traditional, manually intensive processes for estimating. 

Automated Quoting

Automated quoting systems generate quotes two, three, maybe four times faster than manual methods.  With a literal push of the button files are imported, attributes assigned, layouts are examined and nested, run time and material costs calculated, inventory checked, finishing operations factored in, and shipping costs calculated.  Within minutes, not hours or days, the quote is out the door and it’s on to the next.

Supercharge Quoting

The formula to more sales isn’t complicated. If you want to catch more fish, get more lines in the water. And if you want to increase sales, get more quotes out.  Clairco Systems’ quoting software accelerates the process exponentially.

More quotes mean more sales. What’s more, the system captures, manages, and disseminates the experience, information, and know-how of your senior estimators allowing them to focus on important projects, and maybe even take a day or two off every now and then.
