Re: Do I Take the Plunge
We started out of our home with a 2 head machine. In hind sight, I would have started with a single head and a 4 head machine. Since we started, we have moved into a commercial location. We have a lot of walk in traffic that is 1 or 2 pieces. (monogram bags, shirts, etc...) This is perfect for a single head. However, we do get larger orders that a 4-6 head would be great! I have added a single head and I am looking to sell my 2 head in favor of a 4 or 6.
If you provide a quality product and provide excellent service, your business will grow. Think and plan for 2 and 5 years down the road. Imagine where you will be and make decisions on that. I thought a 2 head would have perfect for my business plan but we grew faster than I forcast. Not a bad problem....
My single head is a Melco Amaya XT and I love it! It runs circles around my other machine. Plus, I like the fact I can network more XT's together to create a multihead config. It should provide me flexibility if this one machine continues to prove itself. From what I've read, I know some people had problems with the original Amaya but the XT is rockin!
Good luck and welcome to the thread head community! :-)
