Sell the solution, not the tape
Stop measuring. Start mapping.
Every replacement-decal order used to mean five inboxes, a tape measure, and a prayer that nothing came back the wrong size. Map-to-Cart makes the plan the spec — so the whole team stops re-typing the same numbers and starts installing on schedule.

Plan a real site, right here.
Pick a product and drop it on the satellite view (or switch to a blueprint). Watch the cart and the federal compliance check build as you place — then add it to a quote.
Every decal order is a relay race.
Here is what it actually takes to replace a set of decals the traditional way. On a recent ASU job, the originals were measured from an out-of-date map and came back 2″ too wide — which meant running this entire loop twice.
- 1
The request
Facility / buyer"I need replacement decals for these locations." An email kicks off the chain.
Nothing is specified yet — sizes, quantities, and surfaces all live in someone's head.
- 2
Measure & spec
Buyer + old drawingsSomeone pulls dimensions off an old map or a tape measure and writes a list.
The ASU order was measured from a stale map — the decals came back 2″ too wide.
- 3
Request a quote
DistributorThe list is emailed to the distributor, who prices each line by hand.
Back-and-forth on sizes, options, and availability — days, not minutes.
- 4
Freight & lead time
EstimatorA separate email chases shipping cost and production lead time.
Another handoff, another wait, another chance for a number to be wrong.
- 5
Estimate & approval
Buyer → clientThe marked-up estimate goes to the client to sign off before anything is ordered.
Approval stalls; the window to install on schedule keeps shrinking.
- 6
Purchase order
BuyerOnce approved, a PO is issued back up the chain and the order is finally placed.
By now the same information has been re-typed by four different people.
- 7
Install — or re-order
InstallerThe crew arrives to install. If a size is off, the whole loop starts over.
A single wrong measurement means a re-print, re-ship, and a second truck roll.
Sell the solution, not the tape
One wrong measurement shouldn't cost a second truck roll.
The traditional decal order runs through five inboxes and an old tape measure. Map-to-Cart collapses the whole relay race into one shared source of truth.

The Sole Images way
One system. One source of truth.
Map the real space
Upload the blueprint or snap a photo. Set the scale once, and every measurement is taken from the actual facility — not a 20-year-old drawing.
Place & auto-cart
Drag decals, lanes, and zones onto the map. Exact quantities calculate automatically with a 5% waste factor, and a federal compliance summary builds as you go.
Approve & order
Share a read-only link for sign-off, then check out by card or net-30 PO. The map stays saved for one-tap reorders — no re-measuring, ever.
The real cost is the queue
Sell the solution, not the product.
A roll of tape is cheap. The expensive part is the human time queued up around it — the emails, the quotes, the approvals, the re-orders. Map-to-Cart takes that time back, and it does it while making every placement more accurate and more compliant.
Fewer hands, fewer errors
Every handoff is a chance to re-type a number wrong. Map-to-Cart replaces the email relay with one shared source of truth, so the spec can't drift between people.
Minutes, not days
Plan and purchase a complete, OSHA-compliant layout in one sitting. The quote, the compliance check, and the PO all come out of the same flow.
The map is the spec
Because sizes come straight off the real facility, a wrong measurement is caught before you ever check out — not on install day when a crew is standing on site.
Built to reorder
Saved maps mean the next order is one tap. Sole Images becomes the facility's permanent record — not a phone tree they dread calling again.
No blueprint? No problem.
