Estimating Print Jobs is Critical but Complicated
As an estimator, you struggle with slow manual processes, inaccurate numbers, and lack of visibility into jobs, which impacts your ability to produce estimates on time. You want to provide sales with quotes they can use to close the deal, that actually reflect the costs of the job, but you’re held back because:
- A single program doesn’t contain all the necessary information, so you’re required to stop estimating to look up things like paper pricing.
- You can’t measure the accuracy of past estimates to refine future ones.
- Cumbersome, separate systems don’t allow for speed, accuracy, or confidence in your numbers.
- You’re unclear about all the business expenses to include in an estimate, and how to allocate them.
- You know money will be lost if you omit something in a complex calculation, but you can’t verify your calculations in any way.
As the print shop has grown, the processes haven’t evolved effectively, and it has become increasingly difficult to feel in control of your job. You know that with better support from the systems around you, you could truly excel at print estimation, enhance quote accuracy and timeliness, and reduce mistakes and delays that lead to lost business and revenue.
