QuoteToFloor.com

Software for shops. By shops.

I cut my weekly quoting time from 30+ hours to under 10. Then I built a system that takes the same quote straight to my shop floor — without changing how my crew works. Here's how.

The story

I built this because I had to.

When I bought All Weld from the prior owner of 30 years, I knew some things had to change. Quoting was paper, pencil, and fax. That worked for an owner who grew up as a welder. It didn't work for a sales-focused guy learning the business who wanted to grow it.

It took three years to build what I needed. PDFs read into the system in seconds. Dozens of details ready for pricing review in under three minutes. Modifications — miters, holes, complexity upcharges — handled in seconds.

We now return quotes so fast customers call to make sure we actually looked at the details.

My weekly quoting time went from 30+ hours to under 10. Quote volume went up.

How it works

Three things. One flow.

Quote, dispatch, and track every job — without disrupting how your crew works today.

i.

Read the print. Return the quote.

PDFs in, priced quotes out. Dozens of details reviewed in minutes. Miters, holes, complexity upcharges — handled in seconds.

Multiple customers asking to quote the same job? Each gets a unique quote in seconds. You stay in control of every price.

ii.

From the quote to the floor.

When you win, the quote becomes the traveler. No retyping. No handwriting. Pre-printed layout pages the way your shop wants to see them — inches rounded to the eighth, full metric, whatever you decide.

Our shop went from typed and handwritten to neither.

iii.

Scan in. Scan out. See everything.

$49 refurbished tablets at every station — Saw, Fit, Weld, Clean/Blast, Paint, Ship. 15 seconds to scan a detail in. 15 to scan it out.

I know where every job is, always. Mostly from my desk.

iv.

Tell your customer where their part is. Before they ask.

Every Friday, my customers get a report showing exactly where their details are — Saw, Fit, Weld, ready to ship. When they call now, it's to hurry me along — not to get status.

You see your shop floor. They see their order. Both in real time. The friction of "find detail 457" — gone, for both sides.

About big software

Don't buy big software.

Takes one to know one.

I've spent my career building venture-backed and PE-backed enterprise software. So I know what those names cost. What they promise. And what they actually deliver.

Enterprise software for manufacturing is complicated, expensive, hard to install, often never finishes installing, and generally makes you change how you operate your shop to fit someone else's idea of how your shop should run.

Don't buy it.

Your shop runs fine. You have a way. You built a successful business. We built a process that works inside your current world — not against it.

Implementation isn't an event. A few discussions, some encouragement to the crew, 48 hours from "starting" to "tracking jobs." Your existing process. Your existing people. Just better tools.

What this means

Run the business. Don't be the business.

My goal has always been to run the business — not be the business.

Too many owners I meet are approaching 70 and are still THE BUSINESS. It can't operate without them.

What does this mean for you?

  • Saturdays off rather than in the shop.
  • Take your best worker and teach them the business end of the business.
  • A path to handing over day-to-day while staying in control.
  • Don't retire or sell if you don't want to — but control your life on different terms.

Whatever you decide, do it on your terms. In a way that preserves what you built.
