For franchises & multi-location operations

Standardize pricing and brand across every location.

Without ripping out your existing software overnight. Printmio gives every location its own branded storefront, one central price list applied across the network, B2B accounts that reorder themselves, and team roles with a full audit trail - so head office sets the standard and every shop holds to it.

Sound familiar?

Five locations can become five different shops.

As a print network grows, pricing drifts, the brand splinters, and head office loses sight of what’s happening. It’s rarely one bad decision - it’s a hundred small ones nobody can see.

Every location prices it differently

One branch charges $40 for a sign, another charges $55, a third throws in setup for free. Corporate has a price list in a spreadsheet that nobody opens. The result is margin you can’t predict and customers who notice they paid more across town.

The brand drifts, location by location

Each store ends up with its own version of the logo, its own templates, its own “close enough” colours. The franchise looks like five different shops. Holding the brand together means policing artwork by email - and you still miss things.

No record when something needs explaining

A price gets changed, a proof gets approved, a reprint goes out - and nobody can say who did it or when. Each shop runs its own software, its own way, and head office ends up reconstructing the story from email threads and memory.

Every bounced file is a reprint, a delay, or an hour of free prepress. Multiplied across every location, standard pricing and online proof sign-off stop being nice-to-haves.

How the network holds together

One standard, set centrally, lived in every location.

Set the brand, the products and the prices once at head office. Every storefront inherits them - and every action across the network is on the record.

Branded storefronts per location

One brand, a storefront for every location

Run multiple branded storefronts from one account - one per location, region, or franchisee - each on its own web address, all carrying the same brand, products and templates you set centrally. Customers buy from their local store; you keep the look consistent everywhere.

  • Multiple storefronts from a single login
  • One central catalogue and template set, shared out
  • Each location on its own domain, same brand

Standardized pricing

Set the price once, apply it everywhere

Build your price list with the built-in pricing models - flat price, percentage markup, quantity breaks, per-area, or your own formula - and roll it across the network so a sign costs the same in every town. When you change a price centrally, every location prices the new way. No more spreadsheet nobody opens.

  • Pricing models that cover how print really sells
  • Quotes calculate instantly on every storefront
  • Update once centrally - no per-store rework

B2B accounts

Corporate accounts that reorder in seconds

Your business customers - the property management firm, the regional chain, the school district - get their own account, their agreed pricing, and a saved set of products to reorder. Their staff log in, pick from approved items, and order without a phone call. Repeat work runs itself.

  • Business accounts with their own login and pricing
  • Saved, approved products for fast reorders
  • Pay-on-account ordering for trusted customers

Team roles + audit

Right access for every role - with a record of who did what

Give head office a network-wide view, give each location control of its own shop, and give front-counter staff exactly what they need and nothing more - all through team roles. Every action is logged, so you can see who changed a price, who approved a proof, and when.

  • Team roles from network-wide down to front counter
  • Per-location control without losing central oversight
  • Full audit trail - who did what, and when

Printmio vs EFI PrintSmith

Keep the production system. Add the front of shop.

EFI PrintSmith is a mature estimating and production system built for staff inside the shop. Printmio keeps quoting and production - and adds the branded storefronts, self-serve pricing and B2B accounts a growing network needs out front.

Branded online storefronts per location: Strong production and estimating system, but the customer-facing online store is limited

In-browser product design studio: No built-in storefront design studio for customers

Self-serve pricing models: Deep estimating built for staff; not instant self-serve pricing on a storefront

B2B corporate accounts with saved products: Account management focused on production, not online reordering portals

A straight answer on cost - exact numbers on your first call: Sold through quotes; pricing is not published

Live in days, no server to run: Cloud and on-premise options; rollouts are typically longer projects

Comparison reflects EFI PrintSmith’s publicly described capabilities as a print estimating and production management system. Check both tools against your network’s needs before deciding.

Rolling out across the network

No big-bang cutover. Roll out at your pace.

You don’t have to switch the whole network overnight. Pilot one location, prove the brand and pricing hold together, then expand - with migration help the whole way.

Free migration, done with you

Free migration is part of our founding-100 offer - on any plan, we move your products, customers and price lists across with you at no extra cost. After the founding group, migration help is included on Growing Shop and Multi-Location.

Keep your current software running while you build

You don’t have to flip the whole network overnight. Stand up storefronts and pricing in Printmio alongside your existing system, roll out location by location, and switch each shop when it’s ready.

Pilot one location first

Start with a single store or region, prove the pricing and the brand hold together, then expand across the network with confidence instead of a big-bang cutover.

Your data stays yours

Products, orders and customer records are exportable. You’re never locked in - if it isn’t right for the network, you take your data and go.

If it’s not here, book a demo and ask us directly.

Yes. You run multiple branded storefronts from one account - typically one per location, region or franchisee - each on its own web address. Products, templates and branding are set centrally and shared out, so every store looks and prices the same while customers buy from their local shop.
