Thanks for the input. Ya I agree get rid of 2015, Im not sure what I was thinking to add that in. All of the surfboards do clutter it up a bit and would be better with less of them. The reddish orange is used in his shop however I might be slightly different shade. Probably going to have to...
I have seen these wraps before and think there are great designs. They are good at what they do and the style is very distinct and recognizable. However they have a very cartoony and illustrator style. Not everyone wants a playfull cartoon on there company cars. Besides the cartoon itself the...
Gino, Gino, Gino........Well im glad you came around to the design. I surf about 2-3 times a week and stop by local surf shops probably once a week. If you know anything about the surf community its very localized. There are plenty of great shapers but most people dont know about them because...
Thank You!
I want to first thank all the replies whether they where good or bad. Not sure why some of you got so angry. Anyways, I think this thread has become very valuable for people in my situation.
As far as cost, I have started a rough business plan which will soon become more detailed...
OK fair enough. I admit that last part was me just being frustrated with some of the responses. I have already been doing my homework and have been reading plenty of books which include The E Myth revised(story of baking pies), 100$ start up, profit first, small businesses operation.

Like I said Previously I have worked 2-3 years FULL TIME(40 hours a week) at Two large format printing "small-businesses". I am not including school, or personal tinkering, or youtube videos, or talking to bros. I have no idea where that came from. The list I just provided was a basic scenario...
I have 2+ years in this industry. I left my previous job over a month ago to pursue other design opportunities(I am also not currently located in the same city as previous job). So nobody is paying me to write on this forum. I dont want to seem like a know-it-all im just stating what I did...
1. I completely agree, which is why I have put out an ad for vehicle wrap installers and have already received 4 replies in 2 days. I also plan on taking the oracle class.
- I wanted to learn how to wrap however most business owners I interviewed with dont want you to learn.
(a) There friends...
Ya I was thinking about getting more experience as well. So when I left my other job I applied for a bunch of other vehicle wrap positions thinking I was going to get more experience. I applied to about 5 vehicle wrap companies looking for designers and all 5 reached back to me within a day. I...
Little bit about my background. I have been an artist my whole life and received a degree in graphic design. After college got a job at a print production shop. Left that job for a real design job at a vehicle wrap and sign business. The shop was literally starting from the ground up. Taught...
