This year we need to make the most of our Spring 2021.
It is time to Spring into Action. Take your life back! Take your finances back! It's time to make that big investment into yourself. Show the world what you are made of. Show what you can accomplish if only given the chance. It's time to soar into a Blue Sky embroidery machine and create your own products. So many easy ways to sell today and you don't have to invest in advertising as you can let your products sell themselves. There are thousands of directions to take your business when it comes to embroidery. Sure there's items like business wear, but there's also kid backpacks, shoes, shirts. Baby wear, blankets, bedding, and even specialty items for babies like christening gowns, baby bags, and more. But there's so much more than just that. Business items like brief cases, ties, luggage, etc. Animals are another great way to go. Love animals? If there's a type of animal there are some things you can do, like dogs need collars, leashes and even jackets. Cats need cute collars and cut beds. Horses have bridles and tack, blankets, saddles and more. Riders even need their items customized as well. Into auto's? You can customize car mats, car seats, headliners and even car covers. Customize that matching interior embroidery with matching embroidery on the clothing of the owner. Weight lifting? Bicycling, motorcycles, paint balling, golfing, tennis, sports of any kind, you name it. Customizing is the way to go, people are searching for it and you are just letting money slip away from you. There are so many fields that I come across every single month, a new way that customers took the persons business. What are you doing with all this extra time? Isn't it time you took your future into your own hands? Took your ideas into a way to create your future and your financial stability? Invest in You. You are worth it. You have what it takes. Show the world what YOU can do. We have our wonderful Blue Sky embroidery machines (series 2) ready for shipping as always. Still with all our new features, free training, free help, and we teach you to maintain and work on your own machine. But we have a secret as well. Something is coming. Something new. I can't talk about it much, but in a few more weeks we'll be unveiling our second style of machine. We're so excited! Can you feel our excitement? I'm not going to say much else other than YES, it still has our beautiful Blue coloring. This won't replace our Series 2 machines, but be sold as a second option. #AdvantageInc #BlueSky1501emb #BlueSkyembroiderymachines #embroidery #Embroiderymachine #Machineembroidery #1501c In 2020 Advantage Inc. worked hard to cut our paper usage down and we have achieved a goal of 20% less paper used in our office than in 2019. We have also used far less ink and less energy at the same time, by not using the printer, on cutting down on all the paper usage.
We're excited to go into 2021 continuing these practices and working to cut our paper usage down even further. We are researching ways to continue the process and achieve a greater goal of 35% by 2023. We're working to go as electronic as possible and to continue to save energy, space and paper where we can. Our Blue Sky embroidery machine still has all the same great features as before, but now has some added features!
We have been working to expand in the ways that our customers need. We've listened, we've heard and we incorporated. Because our customers matter. You can now use Wi-fi to put your designs into your machine if you prefer. Of course we kept our 3 USB ports if you prefer to use a usb memory stick. Whatever works best for you. Doodle Art, you simply draw on your machines screen and everything else is done for you. Maybe you'd like to have a child or grandchild doodle and save the memory in embroidery forever. Embroidery on a canvas and create a keepsake that lasts lifetimes. Photo Embroidery, you just take in a jpg and the machine does the rest. How easy is that? And Lettering has 12 fonts that you can use. This is different than the fonts that normally come with the machine. Do you feel my excitement? We can do virtual private shows and we do virtual public shows now and then as well. The simple facts are that we lost a lot during 2020. Many lost their employment, their financial stability and more. Many are lost and wondering what they can do, at home, to make a living. To help supplement their income if it decreased. Or even just to find something to do for themselves while we wait out the virus to be gone.
Embroidery is something that needs little room in your home, even in a small apartment all you need to do is find a nice 30x 40 inch space to put a machine into. The sound isn't too loud and can withstand thinner walls. The weight is only 420 (with the stand) and any up to code floor should be able to handle that easily. The Blue Sky embroidery machine only uses a 110 outlet and uses about the same energy and pull as a new box fan. The average person only sees around 3 dollars more per month if they run the machine constantly. The embroidery business is also so wide spread, so variable, that your business can compete and even stand out if you look to see what your area needs and wants. If you have a big car town, focus on the auto industry. Car have floor mats, seat covers, sunscreen, steering wheel covers. Is your town into boats, household items (like monogramming towels, blankets, sheets, and even curtains). Maybe you live in an area with a lot of children and children need personalized clothing, backpacks, shoes, and well... what don't they need and grow out of? Maybe your town is a horse town, a motorcycle town, has a ton of quad riders, motorcross, skiers, restaurants need their logos on the items they wear. Maybe your area is one that has quite a few dog parks that could use specialized items like leashes, collars, clothing and more? And never ever allow yourself to be limited, stay fluid and allow your customers to show you what they are interested in. Waiting and seeing if things will work out, some day, some how... may not be the best of plans. Waiting and hoping your company gets through this all, may not work out. This might be the time for you to have something on the side to fall back on... just in case. This might be the time to stop looking for a job and start a business of your own. This might be the time to start a new hobby that can have a ton of benefits like beautiful quilts, personalized clothing, monogrammed items in your home. You can even make wall art with an embroidery machine. Take back your future. Work safely from your home with minimal to no contact with others. Many things have been done by email, phone calls and even zoom calls. For those of you who are at more risk, this can be the perfect business for you. Yes, we offer financing.

I disagree with that strongly.
Embroidery is for either sexes and all other. First and foremost, embroidery isn't sewing. It is operating a machine that stitches out designs or lettering. If you are a person who accepts using a computer or smart phone, even on a basic skill level, you can be running an embroidery machine. The hardest part I have found is aligning the garment properly, but there are great products out there that help. like a hooping station and more. And I am a person who can't draw a straight line, even with a t-squared ruler! And I can operate this machine. With a simple few clicks of buttons, you can be operating an embroidery machine and making whatever it is you desire. I'd also like to clarify that I don't think sewing is a "woman's" thing either. I'm not handy with a needle, but give me some tools and I'll help you change your electric receptacles with ease. Whether you want to run this for your own projects or if you want to use our Blue Sky embroidery machine in your business, this is a machine that you will love. #Embroidery #embroiderymachine #machineembroidery #BlueSky1501emb #BlueSkyEmbroideryMachine #AdvantageInc #quilting #hobbyists #hobby In the month of August, Doug and I had a 3 hour live virtual expo. And we're having another next month!
We answer a lot of your questions. We run the machine and show how things work. We also downloaded the video to our Facebook page so everyone would be able to watch it when they have time. It's nearly 3 hours long and we hope we provided a ton of information! We hope you consider joining our next virtual live as well. Please like us on our Facebook page so you can get updates. We always wanted to let you know that we are still having a sale on our machines for 8,500 which is a 499 dollar savings! There's no sales tax if you live in a state other than Florida. I have to charge sales tax to Florida residence. As always, even with a sale, you get free training and everything you normally would. There is so much more to buying an embroidery machine than just the machine itself. You need someone who is there for you. Someone who cares about You and Your business, someone who still cares years after your purchase.
You get that with Advantage Inc. You get that with Doug and Jesy Shepard. I was recently asked what we'd do if Doug ever was in the hospital and unable to give tech support. I didn't have to think long before I knew exactly what I'd do. I'd work on finding the solution myself and be able to walk you through the issue within a day. I have the resources to get answers and the ability to learn it pretty instantly and pass the solution onto others. So that is what I'd do. It would be my only priority and I would have the solution within 24 hours max. Another question is what if... and I don't even want to write down the second question other than to say what if Doug was no longer here? What would I do then? Again, having many resources at my disposal, I'd hire on one of the many techs we know and would work with them exclusively to help our customers. Because we are about doing whatever is necessary to put our customers first at all times, regardless of any situation. And we are thankful that Doug's family has such a long history of family living to a very old age and having very productive lives till the end. That is the kind of dedication you can expect and deserve. A lot of companies talk the talk... we simply show you who we are and walk the walk. We've always had and still offer Virtual training. But what does that mean exactly?
We make sure you are training with Doug, himself. He works with you. Each training session is different because he works directly with you, and you have a lot of control. You get to ask questions, he'll stop often and ask if you have questions, and take you to the areas your questions are about. Doug makes sure that You are comfortable and it is all done at your pace. We use Gotomeeting, think of facetime but on a professional program instead. Doesn't matter if you are on Android, Google, or Iphone; or smart phone, tablet, laptop or computer. You'll be able to use the link we send you. And it truly is that easy. We send you a link and you click it and that link takes you straight to the room with Doug in it. Need to have some employees, friends, family members in on the training? Not a problem. You can have them over or you can even share your link with them. There's no charge for having others in on your training. When you purchase a Blue Sky embroidery machine we ensure you get the training you need. So the first year has unlimited training. You don't need to get familiar with the machine first, we'll walk you through each and every step. All you do is make sure the machine is up, running and threaded. Then we'll be ready to begin. Your training is as simple as a click of the mouse. We train you to run and maintain your embroidery machine. Maintaining your machine saves you thousands over a lifetime of the machine. If you need a repair, we video chat with you and help walk you through that repair, saving you even more money throughout the years! With Doug Shepard you have a master repair technician training you and he has 29 years of proven experience! And yet... he'll discusses things like a human being instead of being overly technical for easier learning. He's a great teacher! |
