Can't say thanks enough every time I watch your videos! I started my free trial under your referral code a few days ago, and can I just say that Craftybase is AWESOME! It was great to be able to import my spreadsheet data into the database with ease, saving me so much on data entry time. You pointed out so many great features of the software that convinced me that my spreadsheet was not going to cut it! Thankful that you are so generous with your expertise in this artisan craft!

One of the hardest things about running a business, especially a handcrafted or manufacturing business, is keeping track of everything.

The first thing I did was want to start adding materials - fragrance oils alone I had 241 to add (samples, ones in testing, etc). Thankfully I already had a super type-A spreadsheet going and Craftybase just made it INSANELY easy to bulk upload all those. I'll be doing the same with my soap colorants tomorrow.

A real bummer. I watched your video and was excited and ran over there. They’ve changed their pricing structure, apparently pretty dramatically since your video 9 months ago. As someone just starting out I’d have been interested at the $9 starter plan for now. But they don’t have a starter now. The lowest plan appears to be a $19 a month plan paid for a year up front. That’s too much for me as a newbie. Bummer.

Yah like most software the pricing does go up occasionally. Which is a bummer I know.

Thank you so much for your videos. They have been really helpful. I do have a question though. I can’t seem to figure how to add multiple materials in the “add expense category.” I purchased multiple items from one business, but it appears that I have to add each item separately. My concern is the shipping cost aspect of all of this. If I bought 2 fragrance oils in one order how does one reflect that? Thank you again for your videos🙏🏾
@BlackTieBarn
@BlackTieBarn 2 года назад
Yes you definitely want the items listed separately from one another because each items cost should be tracked separately. For items you order more than one of... there is a qty column. Shipping is proportion out across all items by percentage of coat. Which is pretty standard. Here is a video of how I enter expenses and materials. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gtM-PnvtN7A.html

But yes..m you can do just this and then turn over the reports to your accountant. Or use both like me. :)

The recipe is the default recipe that each manufacturer (new batch would use). If you need to tweak or customize a batch you can do that on the New Manufacturer screen. You can edit a recipe on demand if needed. Hopefully that answers your question.

Dang, was interested, but some of the items should just bottom line be in the lower end. Lot and BIN tracking 100% should be in the starter package for the types of businesses this is really geared for..

I hear ya. Wish we had some control over that ourselves. But, we are at the mercy of companies if we want to use their software. I agree though.... would be great if more was included in base package OR maybe cheaper overall. But I have used it for years and absolutely love it. Someday.... another good competitor will come around and maybe either be better OR cause price competition. :)

Yes they have recently raised prices a bit as most services do. It had been a long time since they had so it was a matter of time at some point. :/ bummer. Thanks for the update. It is great software though.

Sadly, they seem to have doubled their pricing since your video came out. :/

Oh no really? Haven't noticed it yet. Did they just add another tier maybe? It was a matter of time they did a small increase which how much they've added over the years. Like most software... i would expect to go up every once in a while .but bad timing. :/

Yah I looked at it last night. Although I only saw about a $5 bump for most. Which is still not good obviously but I'm not surprised l. They haven't increased pricing in YEARS which is not common for software, licensing etc. So it was a matter of time they'd have to bump them some. But ya... its a bummer. :/

Looks like a good product but unfortunately they've more than doubled the price since your video. Not worth the money anymore. : (

Hey Jam. Yes... it is, I honestly couldn't work without it at this point. But, yeah software does increase periodically as most services do either for inflation over the years or as they add more services. But, it is a bummer when it happens. That being said, it shouldn't be anywhere near double the price. I just looked and it looks like around 20%. The plan I am on went up about $5. So, it may be some confusion on which plans you are comparing to one another. I believe they added a plan in the middle somewhere or possible renamed a few. But.... its business and hardly anything good is free unfortunately. I agree, early on its worth saving the money. But, as business grows and revenue goes up.... this is a life saver product. I 100% see where you are coming from though. Ive stopped using software before due to price hikes, so I get it. But some... i just can't work without. :)

@@BlackTieBarn I'm not doubting it's a good product, but perhaps the pricing might be regional because I'm on their site as I write this and the pricing is $19, $29, $49/mo purchased annually. Your video from July is $9, $15, $25...I would have jumped on that immediately. I wanted the Studio plan to manage raw material inventory. It starts to get a little much when your already paying for QuickBooks along with their Payroll option, and then to add Craftybase...?

@@jamlordav Ok, so I just looked into it. What they did was add a new plan... to the top. I showed Starter, Pro and Studio. Their site hides the starter by default it appears now. But, I wonder if its still available? Then they added "Indie" to the top plan. most of the features from the original plan to the new plan are the same. But, yes... I found a few differences as well. The Studio plan is pretty much the same still except is $29 instead of $25. The only think you lose with the plan restructuring appears to be Material Lot and Bin tracking. Which, if you aren't using (most people dont), then that wouldn't matter yet. I also see Automated Assemblies not available without the Indie plan.. but I've never used those anyways. Other than that, I'm not seeing much of a difference other than the small $4 increase on the studio plan. It is just confusing because they added a new plan and shifted all the plans to the left one. So it looks like huge increases. You mentioned wanting to track raw materials... you can definitely do that with the studio plan for $29.You can actually do that with lower plans. That is one of the standard features. Unless I am misunderstanding a specific function you are referring to. I'd be happy to help more if I can. All that being said, I agree.. if you are already paying for QuickBooks + payroll + other expenses I completely get that adding another expense can really bite. I'm always finding ways to save as well. But.... for me, at this point and with my size.. I HAVE to have materials tracking, recipe tracking, cogs tracking , manufacture tracking, etc. I did this video because I really get so much value out of it. But, I totally understand not everyone would be interested either for functional reasons or expense reasons. I'm with you there.

@@BlackTieBarn Last question...promise. Do you have to manually enter orders or does the software integrate with other platforms and sync automatically? By the way, thanks for the videos, they're very helpful and I did subscribe.

@@jamlordav Hey worries at all, that is what I am here for (or at least try to be, lol). All of the plans (pro, studio, and indie all include at least 1 integration. Pro includes 1, Studio includes 3, and Indie includes 5. When using the integrated sales channels, the orders are imported automatically which is nice. But, you can also add orders manually for orders outside of that sales channel. I do this frequently for in person sales, etc. Hope that helps!
