Packaging Workflow Automation

Too much manual work in packaging production?

I help packaging teams automate repetitive Illustrator tasks — so production runs faster, with fewer errors.

Where Is Your Team Losing Time?

Your team may be managing dozens of SKUs, handling last-minute changes, or spending hours on repetitive file preparation.

I look at how the work is actually being done and identify where automation can remove unnecessary manual steps.

The goal isn’t to automate everything. It’s to remove repetitive work that doesn’t need human judgement.

How much time could that save your team? Use the calculator to find out.

Calculate Your Workflow Savings

See how much time and money your team could save with workflow automation

Examples: barcode placement, file prep, colorway updates
💡 Base salary without benefits (typically 250-600 SEK/hour)
💡 Typical overhead: 100-150% of base salary

🔍 What “Overhead” Includes

Overhead represents all the extra costs a company pays in addition to an employee’s gross salary. It typically includes:

  • Employer taxes & social fees
  • Pension contributions
  • Paid vacation & sick leave costs
  • Insurance (health, work injury, unemployment, etc.)
  • Office space (rent, utilities, cleaning)
  • Equipment (computer, monitors, software, tools)
  • Admin & operations (HR, accounting, management, support)
  • General workplace costs (internet, coffee, furniture, supplies)

In short: Overhead = everything it costs the company to employ someone beyond the salary itself.

Most automation projects pay for themselves in 3-6 months,
delivering 200-500% ROI in the first year alone.

Tired of Repeating the Same Tasks in Illustrator?

If your packaging team spends hours weekly on barcode placement, dieline adjustments, and multi-SKU rollouts, you’re losing money and missing deadlines. Manual, repetitive work creates bottlenecks that prevent your team from focusing on strategic design work.

The solution isn’t more hours or more people — it’s eliminating the bottlenecks entirely. With targeted automation, you can transform time-consuming tasks into competitive advantages.

Save Time, Cut Errors, and Work More Efficiently

Teams that implement workflow automation typically see dramatic improvements in their production timelines. Complex tasks that once took hours can often be completed in minutes with the right automation in place.

Whether you’re managing packaging rollouts, handling multiple product variants, or facing tight deadlines, packaging workflow automation can free up your team to focus on higher-value creative work that drives real business results.
