Houston manufacturers: make the quote path obvious.
Engineers and buyers research online long before they email a Houston shop. We build manufacturer sites where capabilities are obvious. RFQ intake for job shops — structured quote form, drawing upload, estimator handoff — is $2,400, priced on its own.
Buyers can’t search it, Google can’t index it, and AI assistants can’t cite it. Every spec locked in a PDF is a lead your competitor gets instead.
02
RFQs arrive by carrier pigeon
An info@ email address is not a quoting pipeline. Without structured RFQ intake, quotes stall, details go missing, and follow-up depends on memory.
03
Your capabilities are a secret
Tolerances, materials, certifications, capacity — the exact terms buyers search for are nowhere on your site.
What we build instead
Built for how manufacturing customers actually buy
Searchable product & spec catalogs
Every product a page, every spec indexed — findable by Google, buyers, and AI assistants.
RFQ intake for job shops
RFQ intake for job shops: structured quote form, drawing upload, estimator handoff. $2,400, added to a Launch site. Drawings, quantities, and tolerances arrive together so the estimator quotes instead of chasing email.
A page per process and material, written in the language buyers actually search.
Distributor & rep resources
Current spec sheets and assets in one place, so your channel always sells from the latest version.
Beyond the website
Distributor portal
A login for your reps and distributors: live product data, spec sheets, and order status — no more “which price sheet is current?” emails. Custom web apps like this start at $8,000 and ship in 2–4 weeks.
Founding clients
A few Houston shops. The list starts empty.
Names, quotes, and results go on this list after a Houston shop finishes the project and
gives case-study permission. The list is empty today. A published case study on
/work/ carries measured numbers and the method.
Founding-client offer
Website + RFQ module $4,900
Website + RFQ module $4,900, invoiced 50/50, in exchange for case-study
permission. Limited to a few Houston shops.
$2,500 starting site (up to 7 pages) + $2,400 RFQ intake for job shops (structured quote form, drawing upload, estimator handoff).
$2,450 to start, $2,450 at completion.
We invoice it directly. A larger page count follows the published Launch tiers, and the
module is added on top. This is the starting site plus the module — a different figure
from the 16–30 page Launch tier.
A manufacturer website from Designamo Studio — custom design, capability pages, and product-structure groundwork — starts at $2,500. RFQ intake for job shops (structured quote form, drawing upload, estimator handoff) is $2,400. Searchable catalogs and portals are scoped as web apps from $8,000.
Should my product catalog be a PDF or web pages?
Web pages, always. PDFs can’t be searched, indexed, or cited by AI assistants. A page per product with structured specs is how buyers — and the AI tools they increasingly ask — find you.
Can you integrate with our ERP or inventory system?
Usually yes. Build projects regularly integrate with existing ERPs, inventory systems, and CRMs — scoped during a short paid discovery sprint so the price is fixed before we start.
