Hi I have another question to post. Someone told me I would have to work 7 days a week to get my business going. She does quilts. I am wondering how many hours a week you have to work to make a decent living. I have been told you can turn $40.00 an hour.

If you have one multi-head sure you can make $40/hr. You make that kind of money if you provide your customers the clothing, digitizing, and embroidery as supposed to embroidery only.

I have an embroidery and screen printing business, now we do vinyl signs and dy sublimation, yes you can work 7 days per week 12 hrs per day, to get started, I guess the reason I do work those hours is because my business is in a building here at my front yard, so really easy to go out my front door and go to work.
However, we will be getting out of the screen printing and embroidery business and we will be doing more signs and dy sub and selling our machines after 4 years.
