Promo software for mid-size distributors

A 15-person promo shop is past the "everyone does everything" stage. You have a sales team, an art team, a production team, and accounting. The bottlenecks shift from "we forgot a step" to "the handoff between sales and production lost the requirements." The software has to support real handoffs with real audit trails.

Project-based work, not just orders

A mid-size shop sells projects, not single orders. "The Marriott downtown rebrand" is a project with eighteen orders, three customers, six suppliers, twenty proofs, and a budget. Each order rolls up to the project. The project owner is a sales rep, the project manager is in operations, the art lead is in art services. All three see the same record.

The supplier-relationship operations layer

At your scale, supplier relationships are a competitive moat. Track every supplier's reliability score (from your delivery survey data), their per-product net price history, the rep's phone number and personal cell. Negotiated terms (1-color setup waived after $5k annual spend, free freight over $1,500) live on the supplier record so every quote respects them automatically.

Accounting integration that does not need a part-time accountant to maintain

Stripe for collections, QuickBooks for the books. A clean handoff: paid invoices sync from Stripe to QuickBooks daily, supplier POs become accounts payable entries, art services route to their own GL category. Your accountant spends three hours a week reconciling, not three days.

Mid-size shops live or die on handoffs. The software's job is to keep the data with the work, so production never has to chase sales for missing requirements.

What we built differently in DECADE.promo

Unlimited AI on the GOAT plan

AI mockups, Product Capture (browser-extension AI scraping of supplier sites), AI vectorization, and AI image upscale - all unlimited on one flat-price tier. No credit metering, no per-feature add-ons.

AI Product Capture extension

Browse any supplier website - SAGE, Hit Promo, Koozie Group, anywhere - click the browser extension, and our AI reads the page. SKUs, pricing tiers, setup fees, colors, lead times, and images are extracted in seconds and import directly to your products catalog.

Tightly integrated with SAGE

Bring your own SAGE Connect subscription. Search, adopt products, and pull pricing tiers without leaving DECADE.promo. Sales decks, quotes, and POs reuse the SAGE data automatically.

Free tier for solo distributors, flat per-distributor pricing for teams, and no per-seat tax. Customers always free. Suppliers always free.
