Re: Stock Designs.. do you use them?
If you mean the stock embroidery designs in the books that come with the disc to download the design, I have bought a few and have used many of them.
I bought the embriodery library from Action Illustrated, and have paid for it by using the stock designs from the catalog. I do admit I charge a "design fee" for a new customer, even though the design is in the catalog. If re-order of course, there's no fee. And, if they stay a customer, and order more items but with a different design that's in the catalog, I may or may not charge them another fee, depends on how I feel if they are going to be as a customer. Just a chance I take.
I bought the 6000 design Dakota Heirloom catalog collectin, for $99 I believe, and I've used it more than I ever thought I would. My wife does towels and pillows and other things as well, and displays and shows them, and we've sold a lot of those designs. It was a great purchase. We've done dozens and dozens of dinner napkins and other items for formal dining rooms and "foo-foo" stuff.
I bought a few of the "package deals" from the internet design retailers,,,xmas, sports, holidays, etc, and have used quite a few.
As for the screen print and other catalogs, I've bought the Action Illustrated set, and although I've not used it to it's full potential, I'm glad I went ahead and bought it.
And, I also buy various single designs from the internet design sites, like Grand Slam, especially when they're on sale, or even 75% off. I've got some really good military designs that way.
Good question Robert.
