The challenge
Context and Problem
The client operates within the print services sector, offering a variety of products such as business cards, flyers, posters, and other signage. They faced challenges with customer engagement, complex ordering flows, and difficulties in enabling users to discover their offerings efficiently. The existing online ordering system was not user-friendly, resulting in potential buyers abandoning their orders and general frustration during the purchasing process.
Goals
The main objectives included enhancing the overall customer experience, simplifying the ordering process, and creating a clearer structure for their service catalog. The aim was to facilitate users in customizing products and uploading designs while ensuring a smooth transition through to order fulfillment.
The solution
Solution Overview
Netbase implemented a comprehensive solution aimed at transforming the client's online print services landscape. This included re-structuring their website to improve service discoverability and introducing user-friendly online design tools that allow customers to personalize products directly on the platform.
Implementation Approach
The implementation process consisted of several phases, starting with a thorough analysis of the existing customer journey, followed by designing a new site layout that effectively showcases products and services. Development of user interface enhancements allowed for interactive elements that improved user engagement and conversion rates.
What was built
- Enhanced online ordering flow with clearer prompts and navigation.
- Product configuration tools enabling customers to input unique designs effortlessly.
- Improved artwork upload capabilities for print jobs, streamlining submission processes.
- Revamped category organization, making it easier for users to find products and services of interest.
- Integration of a preview option to help users visualize their customizations in real-time before placing orders.
How it fits the order workflow
This transformation fits seamlessly into the client's service workflow, where customers can submit a design, receive a quote, and proceed to production and fulfillment in an efficient manner. The improved structure not only facilitates customer interaction but also enhances operational efficiency for the client.
Outcome
As a result of these enhancements, the client experienced an improved customer journey characterized by reduced friction during the selection and ordering processes. Users found it easier to navigate through offerings and submit their artwork, leading to a notable increase in successful orders and overall customer satisfaction.

FAQ
Questions about this project
Who is this workflow best for?
It’s designed for print and signage businesses that sell online—especially those offering items like business cards, flyers, posters, and custom signage that require customer artwork and approvals.
What problems does it solve in day-to-day operations?
It reduces back-and-forth on missing files, prevents orders getting stuck in review, improves product selection clarity, and keeps customers updated so your team spends less time chasing details.
What customer notifications are included?
Common messages include order confirmation, artwork upload reminders, proof ready/approval requests, and fulfillment updates. On a Pro plan, you can add more robust monitoring and retries.
Does it work for multiple product types and options?
Yes. You can map different product categories and configuration choices to different checks, messages, or routing rules, so each item follows the right path from order to fulfillment.
Can it support a proof/approval step before production?
Yes. You can set it up to request approval before moving an order forward, ensuring the latest design is confirmed and reducing reprints caused by misunderstandings.
How are artwork files handled?
Files can be organized and tracked so the right artwork is connected to the right order. You can also add checkpoints for “artwork received” and “artwork approved” to avoid mistakes.
How long does setup usually take?
A basic setup can be done quickly, but stores with many categories, option rules, and approval steps usually need additional time to map products and test the customer journey end-to-end.
Do I need an online design/preview tool to use this?
Not required, but it helps. The workflow supports a smooth path whether customers upload files or personalize designs online; you can enable previews where your store supports it.
Can I tailor it to B2B ordering (purchase orders, repeat jobs, reprints)?
Yes. You can adapt messaging, routing, and status steps for repeat customers and internal approvals. A Pro plan is recommended for more complex processes and higher-volume reliability.
What happens if something changes in my storefront or email settings?
If product options, emails, or connected services change, the workflow may need updates. Pro plans help with stability features, quicker troubleshooting, and better monitoring to catch issues early.
