Spreadsheet for calculating the cost of batch stickers (two versions: rectangular and round stickers)
Solve the main problems in calculating batch stickers: complexity, time costs, and inflexibility.
Sticker production involves many nuances: different print runs, area, plotter cutting, and the use of mounting film. Manually calculating each option takes time and leads to errors. Our spreadsheet takes all these parameters into account automatically, allowing you to generate accurate price calculations in just a couple of minutes.
Key capabilities and features:Smart calculation of standard (rectangular, Table No. 1) batch stickers:
- Simple input: Enter width, height, and quantity.
- Automatic pricing: The cost per 1 m² is recalculated automatically depending on the total order area (ranges: up to 0.5 m², 0.5–0.99 m², 1–4.99 m², 5–9.99 m², over 10 m²); accordingly, prices differ and depend on the print run volume.
- Flexibility: Ability to enter a “Custom price” in each calculation for non-standard situations.
- Accounting for all parameters: Cutting, mounting film, design.
Accurate calculation of (round, Table No. 2) stickers (unique option!):
Agree: printing one square meter as a continuous sheet and printing a thousand round stickers 2 cm in diameter on the same area are completely different in labor costs and price. Our spreadsheet calculates honestly and accurately.
Algorithm for round stickers:- Enter the diameter (in cm) and quantity.
- Specify whether mounting film and contour cutting are present.
- The system automatically calculates the total cut length for each sticker using the circumference formula.
- For complex shapes, there is a “Custom cutting/linear m” field for manual entry of the linear meterage.
What you get as a result:- Detailed calculation: Print area (S), total linear meterage of plotter cutting (P).
- Three ready-made price options: For the customer, for the partner, for a tender.
- Flexible settings: Adjustment of discounts and markups (% and RUB).
- Full control: All base prices are easily customized on a separate protected “Price List” sheet.
Advantage: No more sitting for hours with a calculator.
- A couple of minutes versus 15–30 minutes of manual calculation — that is your savings and competitive advantage.
- A complex order calculation can be done during a phone conversation with a client.
Table No. 2 for calculating the cost of manufacturing custom-shaped stickersPurpose:Professional calculation of the cost of producing custom-shaped stickers, taking into account print area, plotter cutting, and additional materials.
Key capabilities:Simple and fast calculation:- Enter width, height, and quantity — the system will calculate the total print area (S in m²).
- Enter the linear meterage of the plotter cut line for one item.
- Check whether mounting film is required.
Flexible and intelligent pricing system:- The cost per 1 m² is recalculated automatically depending on the order volume (ranges: up to 0.5 m², 0.5–0.99 m², 1–4.99 m², 5–9.99 m², over 10 m²).
- Ability to set a “Custom price” for each calculation, providing maximum flexibility.
- All price categories are easily configured on a separate sheet and protected from accidental changes.
Versatility:- Ideal for calculating both single large stickers and large print runs.
Scalability:- Simultaneous calculation of up to 12 different orders with output of the total amount.
How it works:- Enter parameters: Width, height, and quantity of stickers are entered into the spreadsheet. The area is calculated automatically.
- Specify cutting and mounting film: Enter the linear meterage of plotter cutting and select from the dropdown list whether mounting film is needed.
- Get the calculation: The system automatically determines the price category by area, takes all parameters into account, and outputs the order cost.
You do not need to manually select the price — the spreadsheet is “smart” and does it for you.
