Use premade products or build your own
When to pick a ready product versus building a one-off custom line.
What this is for
Two ways to price work: pick a premade product from your catalogue, or build a custom line for a one-off that is not in the catalogue. This explains when to reach for each so quoting stays fast without boxing you in.
Step by step
- 1
For work you do regularly, use a premade product — pick it, set the size and quantity, done.
- 2
For something unusual or brand new, build a custom line and add its materials, labour and machine time by hand.
- 3
If a custom line becomes a repeat job, turn it into a product so next time it is a premade pick.
Tips & gotchas
- Premade keeps prices consistent across your team; custom keeps you flexible. You will use both every week.
