OMTech Laser Business Stories: Sarah Castadio

When COVID hit, I was a new mom feeling pretty lost. I found myself at a crossroads, seeking new paths and opportunities amidst the uncertainty. Little did I know that this period of uncertainty would lead me to discover a passion that would transform my life and career.

The Beginning: A Small Laser and Big Dreams

My journey into the world of laser engraving started small. I purchased a tiny laser machine, eager to explore the possibilities of creating custom items. However, I quickly realized that the machine I had couldn't keep up with my growing ambitions and the quality I desired for my creations. Determined to find a better solution, I began researching, seeking a machine that could deliver both quality and reliability.

Discovering OMTech: A Game-Changer

After a lot of late-night research (thank you, coffee!), I found OMTech. The reviews were great, and the community seemed so supportive. I decided to invest in two OMTech machines: the AF2028 60W and the AF2440 100W. This decision marked the turning point in my laser engraving journey.

Suddenly, I could make all those custom tumblers, cutting boards, and glass bottles I'd been dreaming about. The quality of the OMTech laser engraver was amazing, and I could work so much faster. Before I knew it, my little hobby turned into a real business!

Building a Business from Home

One of the most significant advantages of my laser engraving business was the ability to work from home.  I get to be there for my son AND run my business. It's not always easy, but it's so worth it. My success with OMTech machines enabled me to earn a substantial income of $40,000 annually, all while being present for my son.
