Live Open House
Join us for our next LIVE Open House Event!
This is a chance to meet Andi virtually and ask questions that she can answer live. You won't be on camera, so it's okay if you're shy!
Can't make it at this day or time? No worries, as long as you register, the replay link will be sent to you after the event, and you can still ask questions that Andi will answer personally.
Hear about our current programs, how they will help you, what programs are the right fit for you, and how they cost.
All programs are discounted for a few days after the Open house Event.
Business School
Curious about the business of sewing machine service, different models, starting from scratch, how profitable, and more?
Join us for a weekly presentation on different aspects of starting, scaling, and building a service business of your own! It's more achievable than you may think.
You do not need to be enrolled in our service programs to join Business School.

The Sewing Doc Academy has three major goals:
1. To help as many people as possible become self-sufficient in troubleshooting, maintaining, and making minor repairs to their sewing machines. We love to help you avoid paying service fees for routine maintenance, driving several hours to a service shop, and eliminating the down time while waiting for your machine to be ready.
2. To replenish the number of skilled folks that can offer their services to their community, either through paid services, such as service business, or through volunteering services, such as supporting a maker space or senior center with machine maintenance. To be of help to your community, you do NOT need to open up a full-blown service shop. I ran my business for the first 6 years from my kitchen table and basement.
3. To contribute to our communities. One of my biggest personal interests is to offer opportunities to those that have a hard time securing and managing stable income. This means people that are previous incarcerated and struggle to find suitable income and discrimination, and for those with disabilities that face similar struggles.
