A quote is easier to defend when the job details are captured before the price is calculated. This printable checklist covers the information that most often changes a laser order after the first estimate.

Capture the scope first

Record the purpose, quantity, material, finish, artwork readiness, proof approval and delivery expectations. Note who is responsible for artwork, customer-supplied material and installation.

Price production and sales cost

Include material consumed per sellable item, machine time, setup, labor, packaging, remake allowance, marketplace fees and the target profit margin. Check break-even separately from the recommended selling price.

Protect the approved order

State the final dimensions, quantity, proof, price, timing and change process. Save the approval that started production. The free PDF condenses these checks into a format you can print and keep beside a workstation.

When a reusable workbook helps

A checklist improves the conversation. A workbook adds repeatable formulas, product rows and a history of actual payouts. The Laser Pricing & Quote Kit is the paid version for shops that want those calculations linked.
