Web sales of decorated garments and accessories are booming. We zero in on three platforms that have been developed to enhance your online business operations

DecoNetwork

DecoNetwork offers a complete print and embroidery platform to manage and grow your apparel decoration business.

“With our click-and-drag web editing tools, launching and maintaining your online store has never been this easy — simply choose a pre-made template to quickly get started, or take the custom route and customise a website to your specific branding needs,” explains the company.

Customers are able to mock up designs through DecoNetwork’s Online Designer, which includes real-time pricing that automatically updates based on design choices.

Offering instant access to product catalogues from leading industry suppliers, such as BTC Activewear, TheMagicTouch and Ralawise, the software avoids hours of having to manually upload products too.

“With just a few clicks, your customers can go from choosing a product to customising to making payment on their new order.”

“You can also leverage the ‘live purchasing’ system to automate your purchase-ordering process and eliminate unwanted costly errors”.

AJS: PulseID Personalisation Automation SaaS

The PulseID Personalisation Automation software is designed to enhance your web shop, order processing and production floor through maximising efficiency, consistency and profitability from order through to production.

The PulseID Workflow Automation solution helps track your production through intuitive networking and reporting, with a plug-in for online retailer Shopify also available.

“In the apparel decoration market, it’s difficult to succeed without offering some type of product personalisation, which is especially true in the rapidly growing market of online shopping.
