I had no idea before I started my laser busines that there was such a great community of helpful knowledgeable people. So thankful for all of you. Hope to join in, in teaching this fun and rewarding craft at sometime in the future. You guys put so much effort into making this entertaining/fun and still teach so much. Can't say this enough, Thanks for being there for others it's a well worth effort.

Sometimes the problem with most self-employed is they don't know how to trust others to do a good job. The solution sometimes isn't downsizing but employing skill. But your direction is completely relatable.

I have trouble finding people that know how to competently hook up positive and negative jump pack boosters to car batteries even when things are clearly marked and color coded. You'd be surprised the level of stupidity a lot of people possess. God forbid I make it any more complicated by telling them they're not supposed to keep the jump pack connected once the engine starts. It's like their whole mental shuts down. I'm amazed they got themselves dressed in the morning. If you have competent workers, keep them employed at all costs!

Avocado, thank you for sharing. I appreciate the honest feedback and observations you make of your business. I can tell you will be successful at anything you pursue. One thing i wish you mentioned was time. You mentioned more family time, but how much? If you keep your income the same but double your free time, that might be more valuable than doubling your income! I ran a home improvement business where I would take on any job, "we don't do yard work and we don't pick colors". I eventually ended up taking a day-job in engineering for the consistent income and I could always just cut my time off at 40 hours every week, but I still do side work that adds another 50% to my yearly take home, and have been looking at something that interests me that would be a hobby and income like CNC, prototyping, signmaking/laser engraving.

I appreciate that more than you know! Thank you!

Avocado! This was refreshing to watch, I've been doing laser engraving as a side hustle and I enjoy it, I keep wanting to make more and more stuff but you're video has helped ground that :)

RM Laser is an actual manufacturer of their machines so they offer incredible quality for the price.

@ChadsCustomCreations it sure sounds like it based on the price estimate you were allowed to share. Thanks for adding this info - I really don't like dealing with some companies trying to look like they're operating in North America... or putting their name on machines built elsewhere resulting in 5 "companies" all selling the same machine. I'll have to reach out to see what the logistics of shipping to 🇨🇦 might be. I love what I saw in your video. 🤞

AVOCADO!!! Thanks you for your transparency!!!

Absolutely thank you for watching til the end!

AVOCADO!! This was a really great video and was so relatable to the position I find myself in with my business. I think I bite off more than I can chew. Offering such a wide range, which seems like a great thing, also seems to often hold you back. I'm very much for the commuting over competition as well, I think people can often work together, not against each other, as the customer pool is large. 🎉

Thank you for watching til the end!!! Y’all are the best! I think there is a balancing act that we all must learn. I believe what we really must value the most is our time and where we spend that. Dude I love your branding!

AVOCADO !!!! Dude you inspire me to step up my game ... Kinda getting lost in making way too many items. Instead of focussing on less items but selling more... great video thanks

Glad to hear it, I think we all fall into that no shame in it as it does make you a well rounded maker.

AVOCADO...I'm a screen printer and we do a lot of custom tees. I've been thinking about trying something new and your video has been a great insight as to what I might expect from adding laser engraving. Thanks.
