The hard part isn’t always making the work.

It’s running everything around it. ShopStart replaces scattered pricing, production notes, payment chasing and customer updates with one connected system built specifically for print, sign and wide-format businesses.

1

Sell it right.

Build the customer, quote, price, approval and deposit in one record.

Customer → Quote → Approval
2

Run it right.

Production gets the details, priority, notes, due date and next step without retyping the order.

Work Order → Production → Install
3

Close the loop.

Collect the balance, complete the work and see what the job actually made.

Invoice → Payment → Profit
Pricing + quoting

Know the price before you sell the job.

Customer, products, cost, price, deposit and expected profit stay together. ShopStart gives you guardrails when you need them and lets experienced shops use their own numbers.

  • Use your own costs, labor, margins, minimums and selling rules.
  • Keep deposits and pricing decisions attached to the quote.
  • Move approved work forward without rebuilding the order.

Production control

Production sees the job — not a pile of disconnected notes.

What to run, who owns it, when it’s due, what is blocked and what is urgent stay visible in one production queue.

  • Rush, urgent and blocked work stays visible.
  • Assignments, stages, notes and due dates stay on the work.
  • Owner profitability can stay private while production gets what it needs.
