Set up your AI, or decide whether to.
Six how-to guides for the first week, one report built from sourced studies, a calculator that uses the pricing page’s own numbers, and the blog archive. Nothing here needs a sales call, and nothing here asks for your email before it helps.
Your first week, one guide at a time.
Each guide is one task, in order: add the catalog, write a rule, send a quote, build a collection, publish the site, invite the buyers.
Add your catalog
Photos, a spreadsheet or your website. What the AI structures, what you check, and how the sample catalog works if you have nothing handy.
Write your first pricing rule
A cost recipe in plain language, a grade matrix from a price list, and what “price on request” means until the rule exists.
Send your first certified quote
Ask, check the lines, send. What the buyer sees in the email, and where the approval lands.
Build a collection from a mood board
A brief, a budget, a board. Curate real products or invent concepts, price them, share one link.
Publish your storefront
yours.poly9.ai in one publish: theme, search, product pages, the assistant, and your domain when you want it.
Invite your buyers
Magic-link sign-in, buyer collections, quote approvals, and what your AI remembers about each buyer.
For the decision.
Three things to read before you talk to anyone: what the studies say, what the hours are worth, and what the other tools do better.
The certified quote every guide leads to: three lines, each showing its rule. Real screen.
The first week ends with a quote like this one, sent from your own catalog. The guides get you there in order; the report and the calculator tell you whether it is worth the week.
The custom-product quoting gap
What the sourced studies say about how long a custom quote takes, how many are lost to speed, and how many teams still quote from spreadsheets.
