It’s about empowering you with real-time data to make better business decisions.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Teesom’s Live Vendor Integration in Action: A Deep Dive</h2> <p>In this section, we’ll take a closer look at the unique features of Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration and explore how it impacts your workflow. Let’s dive in.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">A. Real-time Stock Checks: Ensuring Availability</h3> <p>Running a business often involves juggling many variables, especially when it comes to inventory management. <strong>With Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration, you no longer have to play the guessing game.</strong> You can conduct real-time stock checks from your order entry screen or by simply clicking the ‘Find Stock’ button from anywhere within the program.</p> <p><strong>But that’s not all.</strong></p> <p>You can also perform a quick stock check right before finalizing a purchase, reducing the chances of ordering an out-of-stock item.</p> <p><strong>And it doesn’t end there.</strong></p> <p>Teesom provides visibility into stock levels across various vendor warehouses. This is a game-changer as it not only indicates the availability of goods but also the shipping timeframes. Knowing where the goods are located allows you to anticipate whether the shipping would take three days or be an overnight delivery.</p> <p>With Teesom, you have the power to make informed decisions every step of the way. <strong>The real-time information ensures that you can confidently quote and fulfill orders, enhancing customer satisfaction and streamlining your operations.</strong></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">B. Real-time Cost Updates: Keeping Pricing On Point</h3> <p>Pricing can make or break a deal. Overestimating could lose a customer, and underestimating could eat into your profits. But how can you maintain accurate pricing when vendor costs are constantly fluctuating? The answer is Teesom’s real-time cost updates. The platform syncs with your vendors, providing you with the most recent cost information, <strong>based on your account</strong>. This allows you to maintain accurate pricing and protect your profit margins.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">C. Purchase Orders in Real-time: Say Goodbye to Tedious Tasks</h3> <p>One of the most significant advantages of Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration lies in its real-time purchase order feature. Imagine a world where you no longer have to manually add items to your vendor’s cart on their website. Instead, with a simple click, <strong>you can send out purchase orders, receive an instant confirmation number from your vendor, and rest assured that your order placement was successful.</strong></p> <p>This real-time feature <strong>does more than just save you time</strong>—it also significantly reduces the likelihood of errors. <strong>Human error, after all, is a common and costly occurrence in manual operations.</strong> Whether it’s ordering the wrong item, misreading quantities, or inputting incorrect shipping information, <strong>these mistakes can lead to wasted time, increased costs, and even damaged client relationships.</strong></p> <p>However, by leveraging Teesom’s automated purchase orders, you’re eliminating the risk of these costly errors. Teesom’s system is accurate, efficient, and most importantly, reliable—giving you peace of mind and more time to focus on other vital aspects of your business. In other words, <strong>with Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration, you’re saying goodbye to human error and hello to streamlined purchasing.</strong></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">D. Simplified Stock Check-ins with SanMar’s LPN Feature</h3> <p>Our real-time vendor integration offers <strong>another monumental advantage</strong>: SanMar’s Licensed Plate Number (LPN) feature.</p> <p>This feature is designed to save you countless hours during the stock checking process. How does it work? When a box arrives from SanMar, you don’t need to painstakingly check in each item manually. Instead, all you need to do is scan the box. The LPN feature does the rest, automatically checking in all the goods for you.</p> <p>By eliminating the need for manual check-ins, you can free up your team’s time to focus on more important tasks and reduce the likelihood of mistakes during the check-in process. It’s another way Teesom’s live vendor integration is transforming the way businesses operate.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">E. The Impact of Live Vendor Integration on Workflow</h3> <p>Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration isn’t just a fancy feature – it’s a game-changer for your workflow. It streamlines various tasks and processes, helping your business to function more efficiently. Real-time stock checks mean less time spent tracking inventory and more time spent serving customers. Accurate cost updates allow for precise pricing strategies, contributing to a healthy bottom line. And instant purchase orders cut down the time and energy spent on placing orders, freeing up your team to focus on other important tasks. <strong>In essence, Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration leads to better-informed decisions, reduced manual work, and an overall more efficient and profitable business</strong>.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Real World Implications: How Teesom’s ‘Real’ Live Vendor Integration Transforms Businesses</h2> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">A.

We’re glad you’ve stopped by. You see, we’ve noticed something quite peculiar lately. We’re in regular chats with prospective clients who are on the hunt for the best software solution to streamline their operations. Naturally the conversation turns to “What is a Teesom and Printavo Alternative”, because most of our prospects know who Printavo is and obviously they know who we are. </p> <p>More often than not, these discussions are enveloped with a common theme of confusion – they’re comparing <a href="https://teesom.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Teesom</a> and Printavo with Inksoft and Deconetwork. Now, that might sound perfectly normal at first glance, but here’s the kicker – Inksoft and Deconetwork aren’t actually our direct competitors! Why, you ask? Well, it’s all about the classification of the software.</p> <p>Let’s break it down a bit. All these software solutions, including Teesom, were created with a noble purpose – to serve the screen printing and custom apparel industry, making life a whole lot easier for businesses like yours. But here’s the thing, not all software is created equal or even with the same exact focus. Teesom is a robust business management software, engineered to manage the complex back-end processes of your business. On the other hand, Inksoft and Deconetwork, they’re more about being fantastic store platforms, providing an impressive front-end experience for your customers, with some business management functions. But does that make them a perfect apple-to-apple comparison for Teesom? Not quite!</p> <p>So, we’re taking it upon ourselves to clear up this confusion. We’ll be embarking on an exploration journey, shedding light on <strong>what truly sets business management software and store platforms apart.</strong> We’ll dive into the depths of the software realm, revealing the core functions and distinct attributes of each, and guide you on how to make the right comparisons and, ultimately, the right choice for your business. Trust us; it’s going to be an enlightening ride. So buckle up, and let’s dive straight in!</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Landscape of Business Management Software</h2> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Unveiling Business Management Software: An Overview</h3> <p><strong>You might be wondering</strong>…<br><br>What’s the big deal with business management software, right? Let us tell you, it’s like the ultimate multi-tool for your business. Imagine having a complex machine with countless parts working together to get the job done efficiently. That’s what a good business management software does. It’s designed to handle the intricacies of your operations, from order management and scheduling to inventory control and invoicing. It’s like having a personal assistant that never sleeps, meticulously managing your business’s back-end tasks so you can focus on what truly matters – growing your business and wowing your customers!</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Role of Teesom in the Business Management Software Market</h3> <p>And here’s where Teesom comes into play. We’re not just a business management software; we’re your business’s best friend. Our team has invested countless hours in developing a tool that is robust, reliable, and absolutely raring to revolutionize your business operations.

It isn’t a jack-of-all-trades, but rather a master of one – efficient, effective business management.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Identifying who is a Teesom or Printavo Alternative</h3> <p>So, who should you be comparing Teesom with, you ask? Let’s set the record straight. It’s not the store platforms like Inksoft or Deconetwork that should be in your comparison chart. Instead, say hello to <a href="https://www.printavo.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Printavo</a>, <a href="https://www.yoprint.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">YoPrint</a>, <a href="https://priceitsoftware.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PriceIt</a>, <a href="https://www.theprintlife.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Print life</a> and <a href="https://www.shopworx.com/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://www.shopworx.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ShopWorx</a>. These software solutions are more in line with what Teesom offers – comprehensive, dedicated business management solutions designed to keep your business running smoothly. So, the next time you’re evaluating options, make sure you’re comparing apples to apples, not apples to oranges. Because when it comes to getting the right tool for your business, understanding the difference makes all the difference!</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Store Platform Arena: More than Just a Shopping Cart</h2> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Demystifying Store Platforms: A Detailed Look</h3> <p>Picture this: A bustling online marketplace, adorned with custom-branded stores, teeming with unique products, and brimming with eager customers ready to fill up their shopping carts. Sounds fantastic, doesn’t it? That’s the vibrant world of store platforms!</p> <p>But wait, it’s not just about providing a digital storefront. Store platforms are about crafting immersive, personalized shopping experiences that make customers come back for more. They’re the virtual salespeople, the online catalog, and the digital checkout all rolled into one. They let you display your products, manage orders, and handle payments seamlessly.</p> <p>However, it’s important to remember, while they do include some basic business management features, they’re like a Swiss army knife with a few handy tools, not the complete toolbox that a robust business management software offers.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Dominance of Inksoft and Deconetwork: Powerful Store Platforms with Some Business Management Capabilities</h3> <p>When we talk about the heavyweights in the store platform arena, two names come to mind: <a href="https://inksoft.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Inksoft</a> and <a href="https://www.deconetwork.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Deconet</a>work. There is also <a href="https://www.ordermygear.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Order My Gear</a>, <a href="https://chipply.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chipply</a> and <a href="https://www.brightstores.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bright Stores</a>. They’ve created quite a splash in the industry, offering feature-rich store platforms that have simplified the online selling process for businesses in the screen printing and custom apparel industry.</p> <p>While <strong>some of them</strong> come with some <strong>basic</strong> business management functionalities, it’s crucial to remember that their primary purpose is to serve as a store platform. Their business management features are more like a side dish to their main course of online storefront solutions. And while they do a great job of that, when it comes to the comprehensive operational control offered by dedicated business management software like Teesom, Printavo, YoPrint, and ShopWorx, there’s a marked difference.</p> <p>So, while Inksoft and Deconetwork have a strong game in the store platform field, comparing them to a focused business management software like Teesom is like comparing a great home cook to a Michelin-starred chef; they’re in different leagues altogether.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Interplay Between Store Platforms and Business Management Software</h2> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Teesom’s Innovative Approach: Merch It Now</h3> <p>I’d like to let you in on a little secret: Teesom has been cooking up something exciting in their software kitchen. They’ve heard your concerns, they’ve understood the market gap, and they’ve taken action. The result is a tantalizing new dish called “<a href="https://merchitnow.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Merch It Now</a>“. This isn’t just an additional feature to their software; it’s an innovative solution set to change the game.</p> <p>“Merch It Now” is Teesom’s answer to the store platform demand. Slated to launch in early 2024, it promises to bridge the divide between business management software and store platforms. What sets it apart is its seamless integration with Teesom. Unlike other solutions that try to bolt on added functionalities post-development, “Merch It Now” has been designed from the ground up with integration at its core.</p> <p>Just imagine, a store platform built to work hand-in-hand with a robust business management software. That’s the kind of harmony we’re talking about here, and we can’t wait to see it in action!</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Inktavo Fusion: The Ambitious Attempt at Integrating Two Separate Systems</h3> <p>Speaking of integration, there’s another industry development that’s been causing quite a buzz. Inksoft and Printavo, two giants of their respective domains, have merged to form Inktavo. Their goal is ambitious: to create a unified solution that offers both a powerful store platform and a comprehensive business management system.</p> <p>But merging two established companies is like trying to blend two full-grown trees into one—it’s complex and tricky. While the intent is to have a smooth, integrated system, the fact that they were two separate entities to begin with can make the fusion process a challenging one.</p> <p>And this is where Inktavo might face some growing pains.

This fee typically covers the cost of the credit card processing fee charged by card networks, allowing the business to retain more of its profits.</p> <p>The rising popularity of credit card surcharging in the U.S. is a fascinating phenomenon. Over the past few years, it’s steadily gained acceptance as a way for businesses to combat the increasing costs of credit card processing fees.</p> <p>Yet, like all significant changes, <strong>it’s a concept that needs to be approached thoughtfully.</strong></p> <p><strong>So now you’re likely pondering?</strong></p> <p>Why has credit card surcharging grown so rapidly in popularity? Let’s dive deeper to better understand the appeal.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Rising Popularity of Credit Card Surcharging</h2> <p>You might find yourself asking, “Why has credit card surcharging grown so rapidly in popularity?”</p> <p><strong>Here’s the scoop:</strong></p> <p>With the <strong>increasing shift towards cashless transactions</strong>, <strong>businesses are experiencing higher operating costs </strong>due to credit card processing fees. These fees can range anywhere from 1.5% to 3.5% of the transaction value.</p> <p>Multiply that by hundreds or even thousands of transactions, and you’re looking at a substantial expense. So, how do businesses combat this? They pass on these fees to the customers via credit card surcharging.</p> <p><strong>But wait, there’s more.</strong></p> <p>It’s not just about the costs. Credit card surcharging can also be a strategic move. It might encourage more customers to pay with cash or check, reducing the processing fees the business needs to cover.</p> <p><strong>Additionally,</strong> businesses can offer cash discounts as an alternative to surcharging, providing flexibility for both the business and the customer.</p> <p><strong>Sounds like a win-win, right?</strong> Keep reading. The story gets even more interesting…</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Surcharging and the Law</h2> <p>Let’s navigate the complex maze of legalities surrounding credit card surcharging. It’s true, the thought of adding a surcharge might make you anxious.</p> <p>Questions pop up – “Is it even legal to surcharge?”</p> <p><strong>Well, let’s clarify that.</strong></p> <p>The practice of surcharging was actually outlawed for several decades in the US. Then came 2013 – a pivotal year. A class action lawsuit shifted the dynamics, permitting merchants in most U.S. states to implement surcharges in their businesses.</p> <p>Interestingly, credit card surcharging is currently legal in all but two states – Massachusetts and Connecticut.</p> <p><strong>However, don’t lose hope if you’re operating in these states.</strong> You can still implement ‘Cash Discounts’ for customers who don’t pay by card. Now, that’s a smart workaround, isn’t it?</p> <p>You may even want to consider ‘Cash Discounts’ even if you don’t operate out of these two states, but more about it later in this article.</p> <p><strong>Of course, it’s not a free-for-all scenario.</strong> There are rules and regulations in place that businesses must follow to legally implement a surcharge. These laws can differ from state to state, making it even more important to do your due diligence.</p> <p>We’re not legal experts here, and the purpose of this article is not to provide a detailed rundown of these laws. So, it’s always best to consult with a professional or directly with your payment processor to ensure you’re staying within the legal boundaries.</p> <p>Are you with me so far? Great! Let’s keep going.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Clear Communication: The Art of Discussing Surcharging with Your Screen Printing Customers</h2> <p>But how can you introduce this to your customers without losing their trust? Here are a few key pointers.”</p> <p><strong>As a screen printing business, where margins can be quite thin, adopting credit card surcharging could be a game-changer.</strong></p> <p><strong>However</strong>, it’s crucial to communicate this change effectively to your customers.</p> <p><strong>You might be wondering,</strong></p> <p>“How exactly do I approach this conversation?” Good question.</p> <p><strong>Begin with transparency.</strong> Openly discuss the reasons for the surcharge – explain that credit card processing fees have a significant impact on operating costs, which in turn, can lead to higher prices. By using credit card surcharging, your business can better manage these costs, and potentially keep prices more stable.</p> <p><strong>But wait, it doesn’t stop there.</strong></p> <p>You may also want to introduce cash discounts. This can serve as an excellent alternative for those who prefer not to pay the surcharge, providing more options for your customers.</p> <p>But remember, as a screen printing company when using <a href="https://teesom.com/" data-type="page" data-id="10">screen printing management software</a>, it’s crucial to stay updated with the latest features and offerings that could enhance your operations, like Teesom’s integration with Paystri for easy and legal credit card surcharging.</p> <p><strong>Still with me?</strong></p> <p>Good, because there’s more to uncover.

Most notably: we are preparing to provide integration with <a href="https://www.paystri.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Paystri</a> for the smoothest online payments yet!</p> <pre class="wp-block-verse">Paystri Payments integration should be ready to go live within the next few weeks. Watch this space!</pre> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Improved payments flow</h3> <p>In the past there has been some confusion when it comes to your customers paying for an invoice after you have emailed it to them, especially when they use a saved card and Teesom sends them an OTP as a security measure.</p> <p>We have improved that process to make it more intuitive and easy to follow. </p> <p>For more details, please see: <a href="https://help.teesom.com/manual/customer-payment-saved-card-example/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Customer Payment – Example</a></p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Improved custom ‘Payment Terms and Conditions’</h4> <p>With the addition of the ability to add a % based charge (or “surcharge”) to an Invoice, we have also improved the way you can provide a <em>custom</em> “Payment Terms and Conditions” message to inform your customer of the card payment levy, or of the option to gain a % discount when paying with cash.</p> <p>For more information, please see: <a href="https://help.teesom.com/manual/payment-terms/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Payment Terms – Examples</a></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Other Charges</h3> <p>Improvements to the way you can create your own custom charges for services not directly related to the imprint, such as Shipping Fees or Credit Processing fees, has been improved.</p> <p>Most notably: you can now create a % based charge as well as a % based Discount!</p> <p>Each of these can be calculated based on the whole order total, or just on the value of a single Job:</p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Percentage based charges</h4> <p>You can now create an Other Charge as a percentage of the Total Order Value, or based on the value of a single Job on the order. </p> <p>For more information, please see: <a href="https://help.teesom.com/manual/other-charges/" data-type="URL" data-id="https://help.teesom.com/manual/other-charges/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Other Charges</a></p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Percentage based discount</h4> <p>A normal “flat rate” discount is created as an Other Charge witha negative value.</p> <p>Now, you can do the same thing, except enter a percentage value – you can have Teesom calculate the discount as a percentage of the total Order Value, or as a percentage of the value of a single Job on the order.</p> <p>For more details, please see: <a href="https://help.teesom.com/manual/other-charges/#discount" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Other Charges: Discounts</a></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Improved markup detail</h3> <p>The “Profits” tab on the order has been improved to make it clearer just how Teesom has arrived at the retail prices being charged.</p> <p>In addition, you can see a detailed breakdown of how the retail is determined for each product row .</p> <p>For more information on this, please see: <a href="https://help.teesom.com/manual/view-markup-detail/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Markup Detail</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://teesom.com/teesom-update-version-24-16/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Switching to Teesom: Overcoming the Challenge of Switching from Printavo, YoPrint or any other software for that matter</title> <link>https://teesom.com/switching-to-teesom/</link> <comments>https://teesom.com/switching-to-teesom/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Team Teesom]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Wed, 24 May 2023 10:12:54 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[All Categories]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://teesom.com/?p=7404</guid> <description><![CDATA[Welcome to the ever-evolving world of business management software!

In today’s fast-paced, tech-driven environment, choosing the right system to manage your business can make a significant difference. You may be currently using Printavo, YoPrint, InkSoft, or any of the other numerous business management software options available. While these systems might have served you well, there comes a time when exploring new alternatives can open doors to more efficient operations and greater profits.</p> <p>Switching to Teesom from a system you’re already familiar with, can seem daunting. We completely understand the potential challenges that could come with such a transition. You might be worried about data migration, the integration of existing processes, or the learning curve for your team.</p> <p>But, what if the transition is smoother than you think? What if the benefits, of switching to Teesom, far outweigh the challenges? Teesom is not just another business management software. It’s a cost-effective, feature-rich alternative to your current system. With Teesom, we’ve aimed to combine power and affordability, providing an accessible solution that doesn’t compromise on functionality.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">II. Understanding the Resistance to Change when switching to Teesom</h2> <p>Change, as they say, is the only constant. Yet, when it comes to switching from a familiar business management software to a new one, it’s natural to encounter some resistance. You’ve spent time learning the ins and outs of your current software.</p> <p>You know where everything is, you’re familiar with its quirks, and you have a process in place. The thought of changing this familiarity and venturing into the unknown might be causing some hesitation.</p> <p>Beyond just familiarity, there’s also the human instinct to resist change. We find comfort in consistency and predictability. The idea of swapping Printavo, YoPrint, ShopWorx, or even Teesom for a new system, might seem like a disruptive force in your comfortable routine.</p> <p>And then there’s the learning curve. The thought of starting from scratch, learning a new system, and training your team members can seem overwhelming. You might be wondering if it’s worth the time and effort.</p> <p>While these concerns are completely valid, they’re also part of the natural process of change. The reality is, technology evolves, businesses grow, and sometimes, your old software may not be able to keep up. Transitioning to a more advanced software like Teesom could be the next big step in propelling your business forward, and we’re here to make that process as smooth and beneficial as possible.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">III. Overcoming Data Migration Limitations</h2> <p>One of the significant hurdles businesses face when considering a software switch involves data migration. The thought of transferring your data from The Print Life, Printavo, or any other business management software to Teesom might seem challenging, especially if you’re dealing with large volumes of data. Concerns about data loss, access to historical data, and the overall integrity of information during the migration process are absolutely valid.</p> <p><em>If you are switching from Teesom to another software this will not be a concern. Teesom has a unique approach to this challenge. We believe in your right to access your data, even if you decide to cancel your subscription. This principle allows you to retain your historic data for reference or for gradual transfer to another software if you decide to switch. It’s like having an old diary, where you can look back and see how things were as you progress in your new software environment.</em></p> <p>On the other hand, starting afresh with Teesom can provide an opportunity to hit the reset button, leading to cleaner, more streamlined data. This fresh start can help you rid your system of old, irrelevant orders, or customer information that’s no longer applicable. Over time, as repeat customers come back, you can easily re-input their data into the system.</p> <p>For those who have years worth of data stored in their current software, downloading your data might seem like a daunting task, especially if you are told to download your old invoices or work orders one at a time. However, many of these platforms, including Printavo, do provide API access. In such cases, you can hire a programmer for as little as $700 to extract all your order data at once. This investment in time and resources will pay off in the long run, ensuring you don’t lose any valuable data during the switch.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">IV. Teesom and Your Existing Processes</h2> <p>A common concern for businesses considering a switch to Teesom is about integrating the software with their existing workflows and processes. You might be wondering how well Teesom can fit into your established routines, and whether you’d need to drastically overhaul your operations to accommodate the new system.</p> <p>Here’s the good news: Teesom is designed with flexibility and adaptability at its core. We understand that every business has its unique workflow and established processes. This is why Teesom can seamlessly adapt to your operations rather than forcing you to change your processes to fit the software. Our goal is to make Teesom an extension of your team, complementing your existing procedures rather than disrupting them.</p> <p>Whether you’re running a small startup or a large-scale enterprise, Teesom offers scalable solutions that cater to diverse business needs. With our wide range of features, you can customize Teesom to align with your processes and workflows, enabling a smooth transition that minimizes disruption and maximizes efficiency.</p> <p>In the end, it’s all about making your operations smoother, your workflow more efficient, and your business more profitable. And Teesom is designed to do just that.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">V. The Change Management Process when Switching to Teesom</h2> <p>Any organizational change, including switching business management software, naturally meets some level of resistance. It’s human nature to feel comfortable with what’s familiar and to view changes, especially significant ones, with a bit of trepidation. But change is the engine of growth and innovation, and switching to Teesom is one such change that promises substantial benefits for your business operations.</p> <p>At Teesom, we understand these concerns and the complexities involved in the change management process. That’s why we have designed our onboarding process to be as seamless and comfortable as possible. We provide comprehensive support and resources to guide you through every step of the way, helping you navigate the learning curve and quickly get your team up to speed with the new system.</p> <p>When you’re switching to Teesom, you’re not just adopting a new software; you’re joining a community dedicated to your success. From extensive help documentation to a vast library of video tutorials, to personal account management and live chat support, we’ve got you covered.

And if there’s a feature you’d like to see, you can voice your opinion via our Programmer’s Ear feature; after all, Teesom evolves with the needs of its users.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">VI. Cost Considerations: A Comparative Look at Switching to Teesom vs. Printavo/YoPrint</h2> <p>Cost is invariably a vital factor when contemplating a switch in business management software. The financial investment doesn’t only involve the software’s subscription fee, but also the costs of implementation, training, and potential adjustments in your workflows. It’s reasonable to be conscious of these costs and to weigh them against the potential benefits.</p> <p>This is where switching to Teesom makes an appealing case. Our pricing structure is competitive and value-driven. Starting at just $67 per month, Teesom offers all of our features that in many cases outperform what’s available with competitors like <a href="https://www.printavo.com/pricing/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Printavo</a>, which charge substantially higher monthly fees and/or do not include all their features in their various and more expensive packages.</p> <p>The real value in switching to Teesom lies in what’s included in that price. From integrated text notifications, purchase orders that includes live integration and of course QuickBooks integration to a customized branding approach and included customer messaging, the list of features goes on. Our package includes all these powerful tools, making Teesom a cost-effective solution providing excellent value for money.</p> <p>And let’s not forget Teesom’s free version for startups and small businesses handling up to 20 orders a month. It comes packed with all the software’s tools and features you need, totally free. This makes switching to Teesom a practically risk-free move for small businesses, allowing them to grow and scale at their pace.</p> <p>In essence, when considering the costs and benefits, the value offered by switching to Teesom is compelling, positioning it as a cost-effective, feature-rich solution for businesses of all sizes.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">VII. Support and Customer Service at Teesom</h2> <p>Good customer support is not just about solving problems; it’s about building relationships, promoting success, and ensuring a seamless user experience.

The speed and efficiency of a software system are heavily dependent on a number of factors, from the raw processing power of the server it’s running on, to the way data is stored and accessed, and crucially, to the efficiency of the code that underpins it all.</p> <p>In the world of software, inefficient code is akin to a road filled with potholes and speed bumps, slowing everything down and making the journey far less smooth than it could be. This is why some systems can lag or slow down, often at the most inopportune times. But fear not, because there’s a hero in this story: efficient code, the secret ingredient to a swift and smooth software experience. Let’s dive deeper into what that means and how it’s the game-changer at Teesom.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Importance of Efficient Code</h2> <p>Imagine you’re navigating a city with two maps. One is cluttered with unnecessary details, confusing detours, and out-of-date information. The other is streamlined, up-to-date, and gets you exactly where you need to go, the quickest way possible. That’s the difference between inefficient and efficient code.</p> <p>Efficient code is like that streamlined map. It’s clean, concise, and well-organized. It performs the desired functions using the least amount of resources possible, including processing power and memory. It’s the result of thoughtful planning, good design, and meticulous implementation.</p> <p>Why does it matter? Well, inefficient code is the root cause of many software performance issues. It can result in slower processing times, higher memory usage, and more strain on system resources. It’s like a traffic jam on your server, slowing down every action you try to perform.</p> <p>Inefficient code can also lead to more bugs and system errors, as the complexity and disorganization of the code can make it harder to spot and fix problems. It’s akin to trying to find a needle in a haystack, and the larger and messier the haystack (i.e., the code), the harder it is to find the needle (i.e., the bug).</p> <p>Conversely, efficient code is quicker to execute, less resource-intensive, and easier to maintain and debug. It results in software that’s faster, more reliable, and more enjoyable to use. And when it comes to code efficiency, Teesom has an ace up our sleeve. Let’s introduce you to Lincoln Waldick, our Head of Development, and his wizard-like abilities in code optimization.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Teesom’s Development Team: The Power Trio Behind the Screen</h2> <p>Meet the masterminds behind Teesom’s streamlined performance – our development team. This trio of tech wizards is dedicated to producing the most efficient code possible, ensuring Teesom’s software runs smoothly and swiftly for our users.</p> <p>First up, we have Chris Waldick, co-founder and CEO of Teesom. Chris has been writing code since 1996, but his background is even more diverse than that. Before diving into the world of programming, Chris was deeply involved in selling accounting and business management solutions to the automotive and hotel industries. Moreover, he owned his own custom apparel business, where he operated M&R automatic equipment and handled everything from sweeping the floor to reclaiming screens, and from loading shirts at 80 dozen an hour to managing financials. This firsthand experience in the custom apparel industry runs in his veins and it’s part of what drives his passion for Teesom. Chris studied financial and marketing management, and his self-taught coding skills combined with his unique knowledge of accounting ensures Teesom is designed to be accounting-correct.</p> <p>Next, we have the prodigious Lincoln Waldick, who followed in his father’s (Chris’s) footsteps, starting his coding journey at the tender age of 16. Now, at 25, Lincoln’s proficiency in both frontend and backend development is truly impressive. But what sets Lincoln apart is his unique talent for optimizing SQL queries and backend code. He’s not just proficient in it; he’s obsessed with it. Lincoln’s skills extend to front-end languages like HTML, CSS, and Javascript, but his mastery truly shines in .NET Core and C#.</p> <p>Finally, we have Brendan Beukes, our front-end maestro. Brendan joined our team a year ago and has since been solely focusing on the front-end development of our new application, Merch It Now. Brendan’s skillset in front-end development ensures that the interface our users interact with is not just functional, but also intuitively designed and user-friendly.</p> <p>These three individuals, each with their unique skills and experiences, come together to form Teesom’s formidable development team. Their commitment to efficient code is what gives Teesom its edge, ensuring our software is as quick and responsive as you need it to be. Their collective passion for the custom apparel industry, combined with their technical expertise, makes them an unstoppable force in crafting an efficient and effective business management software.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spotlight on Lincoln Waldick: The Maestro of Code Optimization</h2> <p>Let’s take a moment to put the spotlight on a key player in our power trio – Lincoln Waldick.
