Is the $3699 embroidery machine a scam?
2022-08-18Hello, guys, welcome to BAI. Nowadays embroidery business is pretty popular and a lot of people want to start their own embroidery business, with experience or with no experience. If you have that idea in mind, then how to choose a high performance, great quality and cost-effective embroidery machine would be pretty important for you.
So today I’m going to help you to choose the fitted first embroidery machine, including what kind of machines are suitable for beginners and how to buy your machine more nicely. Here are some suggestions offer to you.
First suggestion: Figure out what you would embroider ?
Before you purchase your machine, you need to figure out why you wanna purchase this machine. Are you doing this with passion ? are you doing this because you want to expend your embroidery business ? are you doing this because you want to move into a completely different business line ? Or are you doing this because you need for your shop ?
Once you figure out your ideas , you need to confirm what items you would embroider on ? Caps ? T-shirts ? Bags ? Or others ? That is to say, what type of embroidery business are you going to do ? T-shirt business, or cap business, or logo or any other business.
Second suggestion: Figure out what quantity of your order would be ?
For those items, you need to figure out what quantity of your order would be. You know, your working hours per day is limited. The working capacity of your embroidery machine would decide how many works you can process each day. If you estimate that your order volume will be very large, then you can choose an industrial machine, but if you just want to sell some items on your shop or just do some home business, then the single head multi needles embroidery machine is very cost-effective for you.
In fact , our many clients started their embroidery business with single-head multi-needles embroidery machine, because that kind of machine is very useful for home but also not take much space, and it’s easy for you to move around. At the same time, the price is also very low. Just imagine when you want to move around the machine at home, but no one to help you, then how do you achieve it ? If you choose single head multi needles machine, then this would be no longer an issue, it would be very easy for you to use at home.
Third suggestion: Note embroidery area
The embroidery area would also affect the price of embroidery machine. We know that a lot of cheap machines have very small hoops and embroidery area, so for embroidery you need to know how big the hoops are, for example, if you want to do a big area hoodie, but your machine you purchased just support little area, then your need would cannot be meet.
Forth suggestion: Note embroidery speed
All right, guys, the forth suggestion is about embroidery speed. Why do I mention the embroidery speed ? Because embroidery speed sometimes is also relative to your stitches. Commonly, the speed of some small embroidery machines is about 450 stitches per minute, and the speed of some larger embroidery machines is 1000-1200 stitches per minute. If you need to do a big area embroidery, then the number of stitches will be particularly high, which means that you have to increase the embroidery speed, otherwise, the embroidery will consume a lot of your time. Once you figure out the embroidery stitches, then you can understand the embroidery speed you want, but most likely you need to talk to your digitizers / designers because they know how many stitches there are. And for that, you can choose the suitable embroidery speed, also the right embroidery speed.
Fifth suggestion: Choose right brand
Here is the fifth suggestion for you. Make sure you choose the right company, a company that has very good after-sales service, and many years of experience in the embroidery industry, who has very loyal clients, and those people who has a lot of experience, who has a lot of ideas, has a lot of technology, helping you every step of time. Those people who really share everything every experience. Especially when faced with complex problems, is there a community like a Facebook group where customers can communicate with each other ? This way you can rest assured of getting some help when faced with a problem. Make sure you find the brand who is really willing to push you, show you the right way, and lead you on the smooth way in embroidery.
Sixth suggestion: What accessories should prepare ?
All right, now we move to the No.6 . The sixth suggestion we offer to you is that a lot of people they have no idea about what kind of accessories should prepare for the embroidery. What kind of the hoops ? What kind of the size? They have no idea. Oh, for that, don’t worry, it’s also easy for you to solve. From amazon, Shopify, etc, you can find everything you need for embroidery, such as frame attachments /threads/needles/backings etc. Just note to contact your sales reps of machine before you actually purchase the accessories, your machine supplier would tell you what to buy, what kind, what size,etc.
7th suggestion : Choose the right machine match your budget
The 7th suggestion is making sure choose the right machine match your budget. Basically, after you confirm the above details, you can start thinking about how to buy the machine, how much budget you have, and how much you are prepared to pay. And, you need to consider whether you need to buy other things when you buy the machine, otherwise when your machine is safely delivered to your home, you will find that : oh my god, I have nothing to embroider. Secondly, in terms of the price of choosing the machine, when you just start your business, if your order is not a lot, then you should save your money seriously and consider whether you need the best international brand.
Of course, some people will worry about the quality. It is recommended to check the knowledge of the product online and offline. You can choose some well-known brands and conduct research in places you know, such as customer evaluations on shopping platforms, discussions on social media, such as Facebook, ins, YouTube, etc. When you know enough about the brand, you can choose to believe and buy. Even if someone locally buys your favorite brand, you can take your design directly to his home to experience the real embroidery effect.
