PRICING , INDIA vs USA

Come on Robert. You can match their prices.

Move into a tent with a stolen laptop and a pirated copy of Wilcom, and you can cut down all your overhead.

Then when the customer calls and asks for adjustments to the design because it doesn't sew out right, talk garbish 2 dem an el languish dey no compreeeheind, and take at least 24 hours to respond by email.

You can match their prices.

As a digitizing company, we have done comparisons with other companies, ordering small designs to look at the quality, etc...I have to say the American companies (like us) have a better grasp of the entire embroidery process, which I think is necessary to make designs work for our clients.

before digitizing business is good way back 95'-2003, but since the pirated embroidery software comes here in philippines damn i almost quit from digitizing. usually the pirated owner make lesser price f**k them.

Hi Robert,
When Im asked this question I usually throw it back at the customer and ask them what they earn as an hourly wage and would they sit down and digitise for the $2 an hour that the people get in India. The answer is always a resounding No.
You do it in the States where costs are much higher and so your charges have to reflect that.
Plus the quality is usually good from India and usually better than from the States. . Ive used three firms from the States and two from India, the Indian ones win hands down on quality, speed, price and service.

The exception was Bundy(?) from the States, he was good.

Earl.

Hi Mr Burghy, yes it was indeed your good self, and thank you for your super work.

I have used the same US digitizer for 10-11 years. He's good, fast, consistent, reasonably priced, and easy to communicate with and the designs run well. The few times I've tried another company I've been generally happy with the quality but sometimes the text is poor and there have been inconsistencies. I would think having inconsistencies would be a constant problem when using a large overseas company.
