Tools that tell you exactly what to charge, how to build your gang sheets, and whether a job is actually worth taking.
Undercharging costs you money. Manual gang sheets waste your time. These fix both.
If you've ever finished a job and wondered if you actually made money — this fixes that. Stitch count, labor, blank cost, and platform fees in. A sell price that protects your margin, out. Pay once, no subscription that quietly doubles in price later.
Building gang sheets by hand wastes 20 minutes per order. This arranges your PNGs automatically, maximizes sheet coverage, and exports print-ready — in a browser, no install. Pay once, no subscription that quietly doubles in price later.
Most shops don't know their actual hourly rate. This one tracks every job, shows what's profitable, and tells you which blanks are costing you money.
I was finishing jobs and not knowing if I made money. The spreadsheet I built never quite worked. So I built something that did.
Same three steps, every order — whether it's a single left chest or a bulk run of 50 hoodies.
Thread, stabilizer, blank, labor, digitizing spread across the reorder quantity, and a 10% overhead buffer. Most shops forget two or three of these — which is exactly how you end up with a busy month that doesn't pay you.
If you sell on Etsy, Shopify, or Square, the platform takes a cut after you set your price — which means charging $30 doesn't mean keeping $30. You have to work backwards from what you want to keep, not forwards from what you think sounds fair. Most sellers skip this step and absorb the fees silently.
A number alone doesn't tell you if the job is worth taking. I look at margin percentage — under 25% and I either raise the price or tell the customer it's not the right fit. Knowing your floor matters more than knowing your price.
This is the workflow the Embroidery Pricing System is built around. The cheat sheet below gives you the formula in a format you can keep open while you quote.
