The Best LASER Engraver To Buy in 2025?
About this video
Video two in a series on building a multi-six-figure business with an xTool laser follows student Ronnie, a Minnesota mom of three who started with digital and print-on-demand and was gifted an xTool F1. Product two is a personalized keepsake jewelry box: buyers upload a photo of handwriting, Ronnie scans it into a usable file and engraves it on artificial leather. The creator stresses tabletop lasers need little space — students run them in bedrooms, offices and one-bedroom apartments venting out a window — and Ronnie praises the F1’s portability, setting up on a three-foot table in about 5 minutes. Marketing advice: show the engraving clearly in photos, use overlays/tags saying it is engraved, and differentiate through the vessel (color, shape, size, material) rather than copying best sellers. Scaling advice covers upgrading to a larger laser, training family first, using the personalization text box with wording that items are engraved exactly as typed, offering a photo proof package as an upsell, and leveraging variations. Shipping rule: ‘if it shakes it breaks,’ avoid glass as a novice, favor leather, acrylic, cork and wood, and buy labels through Etsy for Seller Protection. For inventory, keep multiple suppliers for blanks, especially for Q4, and update photos if a supplier changes color or hardware. A closing testimonial claims $696 the month before the coaching program and $4,149 the first month after.
Key takeaways
- Turn a customer’s uploaded handwriting photo into an engravable file for a personalized keepsake jewelry box — a highly emotional gift product
- Differentiate laser products through the vessel (unique color, shape, size or material), not by copying best sellers’ engravings
- Market engraving explicitly with clear photos and overlays/tags, use the personalization box stating items are made exactly as typed, and offer a photo proof upsell
- Ship defensively: if it shakes it breaks, avoid glass as a beginner, prefer leather/acrylic/cork/wood, and buy labels through Etsy for Seller Protection
- Keep multiple suppliers for the same blank, especially before Q4, and update listing photos if color or hardware changes
