Hi All:
More starter questions.
One of the most difficult things about this business (besides mastering the
Amaya) is figuring out what to charge customers. I would love some guidence
from those of you that have been doing this for a while.
Do you follow any sort of formula... Such as shirt cost x markup + stich
count/labor cost = final price ? Or do you sort of wing it... Double
the cost of shirt and add "X" for the sew out of the design and if that
sounds too low, you add to it? =) Do you charge more for embroidering on
certain items? Less for others?
The orders are starting to come in and I'd really like to nail down a
pricing strategy.
Todays example. Church group had us digitize a design. That ran $40 (our
cost). They want it sewn out on denim log sleeve work shirts ($7-8 our
cost). Quantity to start is between 1-2 dozen pieces. Design takes about
10 minutes to sew out on the Amaya. 6 colors, 9600 stitches.
Thoughts?
