2. Can the sourcing company (manufacturer) offer a quick turnaround time for the manufacturing of tools?

It is very important that the sourcing company has the bandwidth to manufacturer tools and provide a quick turnaround time. Tectools has a production capacity of around 40,000 tools/ month and provides a quick turnaround time.

To compete in this global environment every manufacturer must provide best quality tools at the best prices. Tectools strives to provide the best quality of tools at the best prices.

It is very important that clients deal with people who have a very clear understanding of the requirement. The founders of Tecools have been in this cutting tool industry for more than 35 years. They have a very clear understanding of the client's requirements as Tectools have been supplying to various clients for the past 25 years.

The older the company the better it is (Think like Google, they provide more value to order websites/domain names than newer ones.) Tectools has been in the cutting tool industry for the past 25 years and are Kennametal's preferred supplier for South East Asia and India for 25 years.

There are multiple reasons Machine Shops Fail in this terrible economy, the main reasons include:

1. The Quality and price of Raw Materials
2. The Operational Cost of your machine shop
3. The quantity produced per item/ order
4. The marketing strategies involved in getting new clients
5. Always give out few samples for clients to test and evaluate

To survive and thrive in this economy, your machine shop must focus on 5 main important things,

1. The Quality and price of Raw Materials

Procure raw materials from approved sources only along with material test certificates. The price you pay for your raw material is one of the main drivers for your profit.

2. The Operational Cost of your machine shop

To thrive in this economy, every machine shop needs to keep its operating costs as low as possible. Do not try to rent or invest in new machinery to carry out large orders, rather get the work done from reliable sources at affordable rates.

3. The quantity produced per items
Focus on large orders to save set up times on machines which will lead to improved productivity

4. The marketing strategies involved in getting new clients

The most important thing for a machine shop is on new ways of business development. Focus on the internet to get new clients all over the world. Inbound marketing strategies are successful ways to gain new clients.
Maintain your web site regularly and ensure fresh content is added frequently to improve your google ranking.

5. Always give out few samples for clients to test and evaluate

Once you have a lead, always try and provide free samples to the lead for them to get a clear understanding of the quality of products they would get once an order is placed. This will definitely speed up the process for the client to place orders and will help in increased top and bottom lines.
