Smart Resolution

What Smart Resolution does

Smart Resolution, Inc. is a privately held online custom printing company founded in 2003 and headquartered in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, with a separate Canadian storefront at smartresolution.ca. The company operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform that enables small and medium businesses to order custom printed business products — including business checks, carbonless and laser forms, business envelopes, letterheads, business cards, brochures, postcards, labels, corporate kits, and medical office supplies — through web-based customization tools, online design templates, and an artwork upload workflow. The platform supports software-compatible checks engineered for QuickBooks, Sage, Quicken, and Microsoft accounting systems, and integrates Zoho SalesIQ for live chat and ZoomCatalog for digital catalog browsing.

The core technology is a conventional e-commerce stack with web-based product customization, an online proof approval system, and PDF proof generation; no proprietary AI/ML capabilities are disclosed. The proof approval system charges customer credit cards only after proof sign-off, with a satisfaction guarantee providing free reprint or refund. The product catalog spans 30+ categories, and the company has industry-specific assortments for healthcare/dental, field services, accounting, professional services, retail, and corporate entity documentation.

The business model is unit-based, pay-as-you-go pricing with no minimum order requirements for most products and no recurring fees; revenue derives from one-time transactions on custom printed goods, promotional and seasonal products, and bundled free graphic design services for custom artwork orders up to three ink colors. The company self-ships across the United States and Canada, supports digital catalogs, and relies on SEO, email, social media, and promotional discounting as its main marketing channels. It has operated without external venture or private equity funding and holds BBB accreditation.
