Set up your pricing: 3 ways
Products, options and prices are the hardest part of any shop software. Here are three ways to be quoting on your first day, from "use what's there" to "we do it for you".

1. Quote right away
Every new shop starts with a stocked options library: 14 material groups and 52 options priced from real supplier costs, plus 12 starter products. Open Options, check a few prices against your own invoices, adjust what's off, and quote. They're starting points, not gospel.
2. Bring your own prices
Go to Settings → Import your data → Products & prices. Then either:
- upload your price list as an Excel (.xlsx) or CSV file,
- paste a price sheet, or an email where you quoted prices, or
- describe how you price in plain words ("13oz banner $4 a square foot, grommets $1 each").
PrinterFlo drafts the products and you check every row. Nothing is saved until you confirm it. Extras priced each, like grommets, come in as their own products.
3. We set it up for you
On Set up your shop, use the "Want us to set it up for you?" card. Send your spreadsheets, PDFs, photos or a zip, and we load your products and customers for you. It's free, and usually done the same day.
Where to start
Start with your 10 most common jobs and add the rest as you go. You don't need your whole catalogue in before the first quote.
