Always Get Your Customers Approval Before Starting Their Embroidery Job
Always get your customers approval before starting their embroidery job! This is very important whether it is a new order or a repeat order. This is a step that so many embroiderers overlook and do not want to be bothered with, but many get caught with a job that is finished and the customer is not happy with it. This is a huge mistake that can be totally avoided!
An embroidered sample of the finished design in the correct colors is a must. If you cannot physically give your customer a sample, email a copy in the correct colors and require that he or she reply back to you with an OK. Print out this OK and file it with your job order.
If you have several color combinations on different colored garments, show him the predominate sample in the correct colors and attach a list all of the color sequences for the remaining combinations on another copy of the approval form. Make sure that your form does include all of these color combinations. This is very important. This can help save you many head-aches, time and money. This process will show your customer how organized you are and will help to create confidence in both you and your customer.
Download your copy of the Embroidery Design Customer Approval Form and make copies of it for your future use. If this form does not work for your particular business, create one that will.
