hi all. i have an odd question, posting here (as I have a mac) as well in the general discussion forum.
if you are starting a sign business, t-shirt business, or any side/full-time business where you will be using decals, what do you guys think is a more viable and sustainable business model:
1. - buy all your own equipment, learn the software and market yourself?
- OR -
2. - outsource all your cutting needs to a cut store and then use the decals for whatever your venture is?
i know it depends on quite a few factors but let's assume you have someone who knows how to operate the software and equipment if you're going the "on your own" route.
i'm not sure the long-term costs of continually purchasing your own vinyl roles and machinery upgrades/maintenance, that's why i'm posing this question.
any feedback is appreciated!
