Woodcarve is not your typical promotional product brand.
Founded by 11-year-old entrepreneur Timo Goudriaan, the company specializes in personalized wooden products — custom-engraved gifts, boards, drinkware accessories, decorations, and more.

‍

Inspired by his father, who has worked in the printing and promotional products industry for over 20 years, Timo wanted to build something of his own. He started designing and manufacturing all Woodcarve products himself, adding engraving as a personalization option.

‍

Timo isn’t just the founder — he’s the designer, manufacturer, and now, the digital integrator behind his brand.

To scale Woodcarve beyond manual orders, Timo needed:

‍

• A way to upload, manage, and visualize 50+ handcrafted products
  
• An easy personalization tool for his webstore
  
• A fully integrated editing experience that allowed customers to preview engravings instantly
  
• Technology that he could set up himself

‍

FastEditor became the backbone that made this possible.

‍

1. Self-Service Product Onboarding With Product Hub

Timo uploaded the entire Woodcarve catalog himself using the CSV import functionality and FastEditor’s Supplier Tools (especially the Coordinates Tool) to define engraving positions and print areas.

‍

The results were exceptionally fast:

‍

• 50 products onboarded in 2 days
  
• Fully enriched with coordinates, variants, and visualization data
  
• No custom development required

‍

2. Building His Webshop — And Integrating the Logo Editor Himself

Timo built the Woodcarve webshop independently using Loveable, an AI website builder.
What makes this special: he also connected the FastEditor Logo Editor entirely through Loveable’s prompting workflows.

With support from the FastEditor team on best practices for implementation, the full integration took:

‍

• 4 hours total
  
• No external developers
  
• Fully connected personalization embedded into the storefront
  
  

Customers can now upload logos, preview engravings, and generate production-ready files instantly.

‍

3. Realistic Visualization for Wood Engraving

FastEditor’s Logo Editor delivers highly accurate visual previews for engraving:

‍

• Real time previews of uploaded artwork and logos
  
• Depth simulation
  
• Realistic visualization of the engraving effects (optimized by product and image)
  

This allows Woodcarve customers to see exactly what their final engraved product will look like — directly in the webshop.

‍

Woodcarve is a powerful example of what’s possible when craftsmanship meets automation. With FastEditor’s Product Hub, Supplier Tools, and Logo Editor, even a lean, founder-driven business can scale personalized production and deliver a premium customer experience.

‍

Timo now operates a fully automated personalization workflow — from product onboarding to engraved previews — proving that entrepreneurship has no age limit.
