Before Shop Titan

Shopify website with manual order re-entry into spreadsheets. 2-3 orders lost per week.

Orders Were Entered Twice - and Still Got Lost

The shop had a Shopify store that generated 40+ orders per week. Every order was manually re-entered into their spreadsheet system. Errors were constant.

close2-3 orders lost or duplicated every week
closeEach order took 15-20 minutes to manually re-enter
closeCustomer received no status updates after purchase
closeArt files disconnected from orders - wrong designs printed
closeNo connection between website stock and actual inventory

The Solution

Website + FileMaker - Deployed in 10 weeks from kickoff to go-live

We replaced Shopify with a connected Shop Titan storefront and deployed the FileMaker system. Orders flow from website to production automatically. Customers see real-time status. Art files attach to orders.

Orders now flow from the website directly into the FileMaker system with all specs, quantities, art files, and customer info attached. No re-entry. No lost orders. Customers check their own status through the portal instead of calling.

"We used to joke that re-entering orders was a full-time job. Now it is zero minutes of anyone's day. The system just handles it."
