In short

What Templates Library does for your store

Templates Library is the starting point in Cmsmart Product Designer for WooCommerce. Buyers open a ready design instead of a blank canvas: templates you add per product or pick from the global template store, a public template gallery, and template fields that put the buyer's name, title and phone into the design. You can lock template layers so brand artwork stays intact, and the clipart library adds 25,918 cliparts in 69 categories (2.14.0).

The problem

Why a blank canvas loses orders

Most buyers are not designers. Faced with an empty business card they hesitate, leave, or send a request for your team to design it.

  • Buyers abandon the designer when they have to start from nothing.
  • B2B brand artwork drifts because every employee designs their own card.
  • Your designers spend hours on simple orders that a template would cover.
  • Cost of the status quo, with your own numbers: abandoned designer sessions x average order value.

The website is very well made. However, I would like to point out the quick response of the staff, especially Ms. Andrea, who solved all our problems very quickly and kindly. Thanks.

NBDesigner is a very robust plugin for printing shops. It may take a bit of time to learn, as I am, but the support team is there to help. I've been in printing 30 years and I am impressed with how the developers have thought this plugin through. It has everything.
