Looking for help/advice concerning the purchase of a printer.. I am starting a small sign/print business with an emphasis on B2B business Wraps. My understanding is that Latex is the best overall option for what I will be doing. I originally was planning on going with a HP L-360 $17,000(demo...

I would love for you to show me where 99designs is a free service??

Hello everyone, I have been interested in the vinyl graphic wrap(Vehicle Wraps to be more specific) for sometime now. I have done my due diligence researching the industry as a whole, and have decided that its something I want to pursue. My background is in Marketing(online/offline) and sales...
