Working From Home: Brother Embroidery

Originally released in 2014 as "How to Start Your Own Embroidery Business" and updated in April 2018. This book is aimed at those wanting to work from home. Business startups face a tough time and a little bit of foreknowledge can go a long way. If you own or are thinking of buying a Brother embroidery machine and would like to start your own small business, then this is the book for you. My wife and I set-up our personalised garment embroidery and vinyl printing business in England in 2006 and it was a great success. Though we are British through and through, we decided in 2008 to re-locate to the eastern Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Since then we have made our business an even bigger success. We now supply garments to three private schools on the island as well as sports teams in military bases on the island and local & international businesses. What can you actually embroider on? Will it enhance the garment? The answers to those two questions are, virtually any garment and yes, it will. T-Shirts, polo shirts, sweatshirts, school uniforms, sportswear, aprons, towels, military uniforms, cushion covers, shorts, bikinis and even underwear... and a lot of things I can't even think of are all easy to embroider and many you can also print on. Enhancing a garment means you are adding to its value. Adding to the value means you can sell it as premium goods. Do that on a regular basis and you have the makings of a profitable business.
