In just a few steps, your customers can send you files,
reorder old jobs, proof their files, and request estimates. Here's how
it works:
Order/File Transfer
Once your customer is at your web site, they:
- Click the Send Files/Orders tab or use your online
Product Catalog.
- Select a job ticket such as "Color Printing"
from a list.
(The list contains order forms you have
named and customized with your required fields, your pictures, your
instructions, the works!)
- Enter only job specific information on the form.
(Their company name, address, phone, fax and
e-mail are automatically entered for them. How's that for easy?)
- Click a button to attach files or to submit the data.
(If they are attaching files they select as
many as needed. With only ONE click the files are transferred to you. The
files are automatically compressed so even those using a slow
connection can send big files quickly.)
- They receive confirming e-mail with your
message. You receive an e-mail, fax, or pager alert.
- You click a link in the "New Job"
alert to download the files and job ticket.
- Both you and your customers can use the
site to generate job reports and review previous jobs.
Reorders
Once your customer is at your web site, they:
- Click the My Jobs tab.
- Select a previously sent job from the list.
(They can even view images of the jobs and retrieve the original files
if needed.)
- Click the "ReOrder" button.
- Make any changes to the job data
(All their job data is automatically filled
out on a new job ticket form)
- Click a button to attach any new files or to submit
the data.
Proofing
Your customer opens their desktop publishing application
(Mac or Windows). They choose your name from the list of print drivers in
the Page Setup window (or equal). They create their document and click the
File->Print command.
- Their Web browser starts up and takes them to your
Web site, directly to your order entry page.
(The list contains order forms you have named
and customized with your required fields, your pictures, your instructions,
the works!)
- Enter only job specific information on the form.
(Their company name, address, phone, fax and
e-mail are automatically entered for them. How's that for easy?)
- Click a button to send the file and submit the data.
(Their file is already attached. They receive
confirming e-mail with your message and proofing link.)
- Click the proofing link to view a full color proof
in their browser window.
(They can click "Accept Proof" or
"Reject Proof". Their selection is confirmed by e-mail to
both of you and is date and time stamped in the job ticket for future
reference)
Estimate Requests
Once your customer is at your web site, they:
- Click the Send Files/Orders tab or the Request Quote
link.
- Select the Request Quote form (or whatever you name
it!).
(The list contains order forms you have named
and customized with your required fields, your pictures, your instructions,
the works!)
- Enter only job specific information on the form.
(Their company name, address, phone, fax and
e-mail are automatically entered for them. How's that for easy?)
- Click a button to attach files or to submit the data.
(If they are attaching files they select as
many as needed. With only ONE click the files are transferred to you. The
files are automatically compressed so even those using a slow
connection can send big files quickly.)
- They receive confirming e-mail with your
message. You receive an e-mail, fax, or pager alert.
- You click a link in the "New Job"
alert to download the files and job ticket.
- You can choose the tab or comma delimited
format to import the data into your favorite estimating program. After
generating the quote, you can contact your customer directly.
