Choose a focused starting product line
Start with a few products you can make reliably. A smaller catalog is easier to price, photograph, explain, and fulfill.
Add new sizes and product types after the core workflow is consistent.
Design, build sheets, print, sell, and manage production from one connected platform.
Price for the full job
Include materials, ink, paper, packaging, payment fees, equipment wear, labor, failed prints, and selling costs.
At live events, bundle pricing can encourage larger orders while keeping the menu easy to understand.
Make custom ordering easy
Customers should know what image to provide, what product they are purchasing, how the crop works, and when the order will be ready.
A storefront or event order page can collect photos and instructions without relying on scattered messages.
Create a repeatable production system
Use clear statuses for new, paid, printed, and completed orders. Build sheets efficiently and keep customer notes attached to the order.
A repeatable process makes it easier to train help, attend larger events, and increase volume.
