Motor iNKS has long been a trusted name in vehicle wraps, window film, and large-format graphics installations. Based in the U.S., they’re the go-to partner for print, wrap, and sign shops, handling complex installation projects that require specialized skills and expertise.
But as the business grew, Daniel Burton, Chief Graphics Specialist at Motor iNKS, found himself juggling rising software costs and disconnected tools. It was a challenge that began to slow down their operations, making it harder to stay efficient and serve clients at the level they had come to expect.
After 13 years in the business, Daniel knew it wasn’t just about delivering high-quality installations. To remain competitive, he needed to streamline operations and simplify processes. That’s when he discovered Flowlu—a tool that changed the way Motor iNKS managed its daily tasks and customer relationships.
Before Flowlu: Disconnected Tools and Growing Costs
Motor iNKS has always stood out for its expertise and reliability. But behind the scenes, Daniel and his team were struggling with inefficiencies caused by multiple platforms that didn’t integrate well. Tools like Salesforce, Shop Vox, and QuickBooks were expensive and offered basic functionality at a premium price. As Motor iNKS grew these tools became more of a hindrance than a help.
Daniel needed a solution that wouldn’t just add more complexity. He wanted a platform that could simplify operations, manage clients and payments, organize schedules, and do it all without blowing up his budget.
The Search for an All-in-One Solution
When Daniel set out to find a new system, he wasn’t just looking for a CRM. He needed a complete business management tool that would let him focus on what mattered most—delivering great service. He tested a few different platforms but found many of them overly complicated or missing key features.
That’s when he found Flowlu. It had everything he needed—without the unnecessary bloat or high costs.
Getting Started with Flowlu: Easy Transition, Immediate Impact
Flowlu caught Daniel’s attention with its all-in-one approach, offering powerful CRM features, invoicing, and project management in one place. Transitioning to Flowlu was a breeze. “Within a day, we were up and running,” Daniel recalls.
But what really made the difference was the hands-on support from Flowlu’s team.
The support team's quick response to technical issues or even general questions has been phenomenal.

Sales Funnels & Opportunities: This tool provides Daniel with a clear view of his sales pipeline, making it easier to track leads and close deals.
Competitive Edge and Increased Productivity
Thanks to Flowlu, Daniel has given his clients a more seamless experience. For example, he now shares his installation calendar with B2B partners, allowing them to plan around his availability. This added transparency gives Motor iNKS a competitive edge—clients appreciate the convenience and efficiency it brings to their own workflows.
“The task and calendar functions keep me organized, which is rare in the wrap and print industry,” Daniel says. “That organization is what sets us apart.”
