We have a new pricing calculator! This one is for contract decorating and would love some feedback on it.
https://www.promodecorators.com/calculators
Cool part is, it connects to our CRM and we can get the data on who is using it and it will eventually import the quotes directly into the shop management software.
if anybody is interested in getting something like it I can connect you with our developers.

I am on a Fiber connection, site took a good 30 seconds to load, that's way too long.
Also the chart doesn't have a price for second side or other print locations? I would think that would be a immediate issue for someone using this? Most garments we print have 2 print locations at minimum.
30 seconds, that’s crazy! We’ll look into that, thnx for the heads up! Our customers (wholesale) are impatient and need super fast solutions. Adding additional locations would make it look more complicated and they’d never use it so we decided not to include the additional locations. They just have to run it twice or double the cost of one side… Thanx for the feedback!

Do you have any at all?
Only need 3 and probably 2 would do.

God I Love AI
Try these AI tips for work-arounds:
Substitutes for Newman roller frame alignment clips (used to hold mesh in place before inserting the locking strip) can be improvised using short sections of spare locking strip, small C-clamps/spring clamps, or by hand-tensioning and securing with heavy tape.
The primary purpose of the alignment clips is to secure the mesh in the T-slot during the initial, crucial, "barely tight" stage of stretching.
Best Substitutes & Methods:
Spare Locking Strip Pieces: Cut small (1-2 inch) pieces of old, worn-out locking strip to use as "clips" to hold the mesh in the corners and center before installing the full-length strip. Small Plastic/Spring Clamps: Use small, non-marring spring clamps to hold the mesh in the channel, ensuring they do not scratch the aluminum rollers. The "Hand-Tensioning" Method: Instead of relying on clips, some printers pull the mesh taught across the frame by hand and immediately insert the locking strip into one long side, then the opposite, then the sides, pulling and tucking as they go to avoid needing pre-alignment. "Reverse Curve" Method: Instead of clips, some methods use a pencil to mark the mesh on the edge of the T-slot for alignment while feeding it in.
Important Notes:
Avoid Damaging the Roller: Do not use metal pliers or heavy, sharp tools that can dent the T-slot and cause poor tension or ruin future mesh. Alignment is Key: Regardless of the substitute, the goal is to keep the mesh squares perpendicular to the frame bars, preventing diagonal tension.

Its def been odd for awhile, big swings. 60k one day, $100 the next. But pretty even over all.
this is how we are. I wasn't able to predict anything since about 2018. Our numbers shifted and months that were normally busy weren't, but overall, we ere up. Our sales are right in line with last year. Which was up from the previous year. It doesn't hurt that we've picked up a lot of business from another shop that changed owners and the new guy is a nepo baby that couldn't care less what happens with daddy's money.

We are busy as hell with anything but shirts… I am doing farming out mugs, bracelets, bottle opener, yard signs. We have WAY too many cricket Karens in the area offer bella tees with a 2 side print for $12.00. It is CRAZY!
