Built for the operational shape of print & promo.

Print shops and promotional product agencies running B2B operations across orders, artwork, suppliers and production. We’ve built half a dozen of these. We know the shape.

Why we fit

Why we fit print & promo.

01

We’ve worked inside half a dozen print shops, swag agencies, and B2B promo operations. The shape repeats.

02

B2B order intake never fits a generic e-commerce shape — it needs catalogues, approvals, account-specific pricing, and artwork as a first-class object.

03

Production status, supplier coordination, and accounting all need to talk to each other. We treat them as one operations layer, not four tools.

What we typically build

Four patterns we ship
for print & promo.

The exact mix differs per engagement. These are the recurring shapes — most projects are a combination of two or three.

01

Branded B2B ordering portals

A logged-in portal per client account. Approved catalogues, approved pricing, repeat-order flows. Replaces email-and-spreadsheet intake.

02

Artwork approval & versioning

Drop a file, system tags it to the order, routes for approval, tracks versions. No more lost attachments and reply-all threads.

03

Production status automation

When production marks something shipped, every relevant client and stakeholder knows. Status moves itself; nobody chases it.

04

Supplier & accounting integration

Wire the operations layer into your supplier system and accounting tool. Quotes, POs, and invoices stop being copy-paste jobs.
