One of the biggest unlocked and time savers I’ve found so far using AI has been automating the calculation of my cost of goods.

Because we cut and sew in America, nothing is vertically integrated.

We source every single raw material that goes into our shirts, all from different vendors.

Buttons, snaps, fabric, fusing, washing the fabric, cutting the fabric, the freight / shipping around all those materials and processes - and the cutting and sewing.

And then, some of those materials get used across multiple shirts - some are shirt specific. Then multiple this across 10-20 different shirts, all coming in at different times throughout the year.

By the time a finished shirt lands, it was such a mess trying to go back and figure out what our true cost is for a finished shirt.

Now it takes about 10 min, it’s exact, and then publishes it to Shopify for me. Stress free.

Tools like this, make complicated, expensive, lower margin businesses - like making American made western shirts - SO much easier and less complex.

I love ai
