Hey Everyone,

Looking for some advice. I am opening a second location in March. Right now, I have one full-time juicer plus myself, I help out when the juice load is real heavy. I’ve had the CT-7 since 2017 and it’s a peach, I love it. We juice around 60-100 bottles per day with the occasional 150-200 bottles juice days, rare, but we do have them.

With the second location, I will definitely need to hire another juicer, I’m thinking around 30 hours a week. Either that, or I could purchase the X-1.

Pro: Long run, the X-1 would be a better investment for my business vs. another full-time employee.  
Cons: I would have to get a loan, which could take sometime and not guaranteed. Especially with the new shop buildout, cash is TIGHT.

Thanks for all your help!  
Amanda

X1 all day, you’ll cut the manpower in half.

Congrats on your second location! What about the X-1 mini? The busier you get, the need for more staff will arise inevitably. I think we all want to do everything ourselves but it’s just not possible (you’ll figure it out the easy way or hard way — I almost passed out one night working 16+ hours every day for 3 weeks straight). Yikes! You’ll be the COO doing 250+ bottles a day, the CFO, the CEO, the CMO, and everything else! Are there any creative ways for you to generate much more capital in a small amount of time like promoting multiple juice cleanses, bulk orders + deliveries, selling coffee, doing events with other businesses, etc?

X-1 all the way!  
Plus, a CapEx investment and depreciable asset…BONUS!! Plus you’ll actually CUT Labor costs with the X-1 even if you didn’t increase your volume for a second location. and the investment in an asset is like paying yourself instead of paying for labor that walks out your door. Congratulations and good luck!
