Embroidery Specifications Sheet

Purpose: Provide complete information on embroidery designs

File Name: EMBSPEC

Format: Single Page, 1 Part

"The potential customer most likely to buy your services is the customer who has bought from you in the past." That's an old business adage, and it's a true one - so long as you satisfy the customer when he or she orders from you. But satisfying the customer the first time does not ensure that you will satisfy them the second time. In fact, satisfying the customer the second time is harder to do than the first. - Unless you can repeat the first job flawlessly.

That's where the Embroidery Specifications Sheet comes into play. This sheet allows you to record the important aspects of how each job was performed in order to duplicate the results when the customer re-orders. Each design that is being sewn for the first time gets it's own Embroidery Specifications Sheet. On that sheet, the digitizer or operator records the important aspects of a design's color order, thread stock number used for that color, thread weight, and a description of what that color of thread does for the design. Let's face it, "yellow" is only "yellow" until the customer sees two jackets from two different orders side-by-side that used a different shade of the color each time.

Because the quality of every job is affected by even the tiniest aspects, the bottom section of the form has spaces to denote the type, brand and color of garment used when this design was first ordered, as well as the size of hoop, backing and topping used to create it. Changing any element in the sewing process can affect the quality of the final product, so having this information can be a life-saver.
