ONE CONNECTED HANDMADE BUSINESS WORKFLOW

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A handmade product begins long before the sale.

You buy materials.

You use those materials to make products.

You calculate what each product costs.

You decide what to charge.

You plan production.

You make a batch.

You manage finished inventory.

You sell online or at a craft fair.

Then you need to understand how your business performed.

MakerFlow connects that workflow:

RAW MATERIALS

→ RECIPES / BOM

→ TRUE PRODUCT COST

→ PRICING

→ PRODUCTION

→ INVENTORY

→ ORDERS

→ CRAFT FAIRS

→ REPORTS

Instead of maintaining separate inventory sheets, pricing calculators, production planners and craft fair trackers, keep your handmade-business records organized in one interactive system.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

WHAT YOU CAN MANAGE

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

See important business information from one central workspace, including revenue, estimated profit, open orders, production activity, finished products, low-stock materials and upcoming craft fairs.

Track the materials you purchase and use to make your products.

Organize quantities, units, purchase information, costs, suppliers and stock levels.

Keep track of finished products and available quantities, with inventory history and low-stock information.

Connect raw materials to the products you make.

Build a Recipe / BOM so MakerFlow can calculate material requirements and costs from the components used in each product.

Go beyond material cost.

Calculate product cost using:

Use your own business information to understand what each product costs to make.

Explore retail and wholesale pricing using product cost, markup and margin calculations.

Make more informed pricing decisions without maintaining a separate pricing spreadsheet.

Estimate how entered Etsy selling costs can affect a sale, including configurable marketplace-related fees and other entered costs.

Compare selling price, costs and estimated profit while planning your pricing.

Create SKUs to help organize products and inventory.

Plan upcoming production and keep track of what needs to be made.

Create and manage production batches.

When an applicable batch is completed, MakerFlow can consume its linked raw materials and add the completed quantity to finished-product inventory.

Production and inventory stay connected.

Manage multi-item orders across different sales channels.

Track order status, products, customers, marketplace fees, shipping costs and other relevant sales information.

MakerFlow preserves historical cost information used by recorded transactions so later product-cost changes do not simply rewrite past records.

Keep useful customer information organized alongside your orders and sales.

Organize supplier information and connect suppliers with relevant materials and expenses.

Record and categorize business expenses.

Relevant expenses can also be connected with suppliers or craft fairs.

Plan and track your in-person selling events from one dedicated workspace.

Organize:

Useful for makers who sell both online and at markets, fairs and vendor events.

Turn everyday business records into clearer business visibility.

Review information such as:

Printable reporting tools are also included where supported.

Search across your MakerFlow workspace without manually opening every section.

Move inactive records out of everyday workflows while keeping historical information organized.

Choose from multiple visual themes and customize your MakerFlow workspace.

Export your MakerFlow data to a JSON backup file and restore a compatible backup when needed.

Regular backups are strongly recommended.

OFFLINE + LOCAL DATA

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

MakerFlow is designed to run locally in your browser without requiring a MakerFlow server connection.

Your entered app data is stored locally in the browser environment you use rather than being synced to a MakerFlow cloud account.

No MakerFlow login or cloud database is required.

Because browser storage belongs to your particular browser/device environment, regular backups are strongly recommended.
