Episode 14: Never Do This Or You'll Lose Your Customer?

Hope Yoder · Embroidery Profit Podcast with Hope Yoder

Aimed at shop owners who approve designs with customers. Hope explains why she does not send clients an on-screen digitized rendering and instead tests the design on scrap fabric, fixes the file, photographs the real stitch-out and gets written approval before production. She also weighs deposits against full payment upfront, and makes the case for recording thread, stabilizer, needle and placement details so reorders go smoothly.

Episode 12: Embroidery Terms You Need To Know

Hope Yoder · Embroidery Profit Podcast with Hope Yoder

New to machine embroidery and lost in the jargon? Hope defines the words you will hear from digitizers and customers: throat plate, bobbin and tension, backing versus topper, left-chest and full-back placement, thread weight, stitch count and color stops, trims and jump stitches, and the main stitch types. She also touches on manual versus auto-digitizing and on woven and freestanding patches. A handy reference to revisit.
