See what “materials × 2” leaves out.

A balloon garland, arch or backdrop install can look profitable until labor, operating costs and travel enter the picture. Try the example below to see a sustainable selling price based on your target profit margin.

Profit-first formulaSelling price = total job cost ÷ (1 − target margin)

Margin and markup are not the same. DecorQuote shows both, so you can price with the number you actually mean.

Labor cost
$105
Projected profit
$164.67
Markup
66.7%

From request to quote

Quote balloon decor in three clear steps.

DecorQuote keeps the workflow focused on one job: capture it, price it, send it.

01

Build from what you already sell

Choose reusable catalog items and packages, then adjust quantities for this event. No rebuilding the same garland, backdrop or delivery line every time.

02

Check the business outcome

Add internal costs and client fees, set a target margin and catch low-profit work before it reaches the client.

A balloon quote app that thinks like an owner.

Fast enough for the inquiry. Detailed enough for the business decision behind it.

01

True job costing

Never forget an invisible cost.

Keep materials, labor, overhead and internal adjustments in one calculation. DecorQuote makes the real cost visible before you commit to a price.

02

Reusable catalog

Save your best sellers once.

Store garlands, arches, backdrops, rentals and packages with per-item, per-hour, per-foot or per-meter pricing. Reuse them without losing the pricing snapshot on an older quote.

03

Margin guardrails

Know when a price is too low.

See gross profit, profit margin and markup together. Target-price guidance and warnings make thin-margin work harder to miss.

04

Professional proposals

Send a client-ready PDF.

Add your logo, terms, deposit and balance. Share a clean estimate from your phone without copying numbers into another design tool.

05

Opportunity tracking

Keep every quote in view.

Track draft, sent, accepted and declined work, then duplicate a past quote when a similar request comes in.

06

Local-first privacy

Run your business without another login.

Core quoting works offline. There is no DecorQuote account, developer-operated backend, advertising or automatic analytics upload.

Client-safe by construction

Your client sees the quote. You see the business.

A professional estimate should explain the price—not reveal how your business earns it. DecorQuote keeps the owner view and client view deliberately separate.

A focused alternative to spreadsheets and cloud CRMs

Event decorator quoting software without the software overhead.

Ask a different question
What is a balloon decor pricing calculator?

A balloon decor pricing calculator turns materials, rentals, labor, overhead and job-specific fees into a sustainable client price. DecorQuote also shows gross profit, profit margin and markup, then turns the finished price into a client-ready PDF quote.

How does DecorQuote calculate a balloon decor price?

You add reusable services or custom items, quantities, internal costs and client fees. DecorQuote calculates the quote total, tax, gross profit, margin, markup, deposit and balance using deterministic pricing rules. You remain in control of every input and final price.

Can I use DecorQuote as a balloon garland or balloon arch pricing calculator?

Yes. Save garlands, arches, columns, backdrops and rentals as reusable catalog items or packages, then add material, labor, delivery, travel and overhead costs for each job. DecorQuote calculates pricing and profit; it does not estimate the physical number of balloons needed for an install.

Does DecorQuote work offline?

Yes. The core quoting workflow works offline, and business data is stored in the app database on your device. No DecorQuote account or developer-operated cloud backend is required.

Does DecorQuote include a balloon decor quote template?

DecorQuote generates a polished PDF proposal from each quote. It can include your business branding, client and event details, itemized services, total, deposit, balance, terms and signature. Internal costs, profit, margin, markup and private notes stay out of the client document.

How much does DecorQuote cost?

DecorQuote is a one-time $6.99 purchase in the US App Store, with no subscription or in-app purchase. Apple displays the current local price for your country before you download.

Is DecorQuote event decorator pricing software?

Yes. DecorQuote is focused pricing and quoting software for balloon artists, party decorators, wedding decorators, event stylists and backdrop rental businesses. It includes clients, reusable catalog items, packages, quote statuses and branded estimates, but it does not replace payments, accounting, contracts or a full cloud CRM.

Which devices does DecorQuote support?

DecorQuote is available on the App Store for iPhone and requires iOS 15.1 or later. The App Store listing always shows the latest compatibility details for your device.

How do I back up my quotes?

DecorQuote includes explicit JSON backup and restore plus CSV quote export. Because the app is local-first, you decide when and where to save those exported files.

One purchase. No monthly software bill.

Price the next event with the whole business in view.

Build the quote, protect the margin and send a proposal you are proud to put your name on.
