The newly passed Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) lowers the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, — the largest reduction in the U.S. corporate tax rate in our nation\u2019s history. It\u2019s more complicated for small businesses, and you should definitely speak with a tax adviser before you run out and spend that extra 14% of revenue, but many businesses will have a big chunk of change to spend this year.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Best Way to Use the Money<\/b><\/p>\n

But how should you spend it? Savvy business owners who make products using industrial fabrics and composite materials will figure out a way to use the money to grow their businesses and get a return on their investment. Investing in a cutting table not only allows businesses to increase production and sell more products, it saves money by eliminating the need to hire more hand cutters to keep up with the growth in sales. <\/span><\/p>\n

Because a fabric cutting table is more efficient and precise than hand cutting, it also saves money in less wasted material. Autometrix CEO Gil Griego tours a lot of businesses that cut fabric. \u201cIn some places, you can\u2019t see the floor. You are walking on fabric,\u201d said Griego. \u201cWhen I see the fabric covered floor, I see wasted money that the customer can easily recoup by precise, high-speed cutting.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The sample cut of 15 costumes took the fabric cutting table 21 minutes. It took two of Roberts\u2019 hand cutters and an assistant four and half hours to do the same job.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Noreen Roberts, Owner of Creative Costuming & Designs<\/a> put off buying a fabric cutting machine for her costume apparel business for years. Her business was so successful, they were turning away 10,000 costume orders each year.<\/p>\n

Automation Can Catapult Your Production \u2013 and Your Sales<\/b><\/p>\n

It took Autometrix doing a sample cut for Roberts to really show her what a difference a cutting table could make for her business. The sample cut of 15 costumes took the fabric cutting table 21 minutes. It took two of Roberts\u2019 hand cutters and an assistant four and half hours to do the same job. After purchasing a Radium<\/a> fabric cutting table, Roberts was able to triple her production. She is working towards quadrupling the number of costumes her business produces. The fabric cutting machine paid for itself within a few months.<\/span><\/p>\n

No Regrets<\/b><\/p>\n

Griego sees similar customer transformations all the time. \u00a0He recognizes what a hard decision it is to part with a large amount of money. \u201cIt’s easy to talk yourself out of spending $90K,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen customers finally make that decision, it is almost universal, almost 100% that they come back and say I can’t believe how scared I was of this. I should have done it sooner.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
