  1. Recent problems with Signs365

    I have had a few problems in the past but not very many. They seem to have a hard time hitting one of my customers blues. I did get a rough contour cut once and also had to exacto knife it. A couple times my order was late. Considering all the orders I've done I feel they have done a pretty good...

    "shaking my head emoji" insert here LOL
  3. Urgent Design Help

    Funny about the ambulance ride! That made me laugh (at your expense, sorry)! My son dislocated his elbow in football last year. The ambulance was not licensed to give him pain meds so we ended up at the closest hospital which is one I don't like. He's 6'2" 240# but was only 17 3/4 years old so...
  4. 28’ AT&T NASCAR Trailer Rewrap

    I really like the idea of "You get the graphics removed and the cost to re-wrap is XX, pending a look at the trailer once the vinyl is removed."
  5. Anyone know Simpson and Appliance Fonts?

    Perfect! It's a horrible logo so hopefully you can make it look good somehow LOL Must've been made in the 80's, it reminds me of Atari or Centipede or something like that. I found Temper Wide 45 and Gold Medium. for the Appliance.
  6. When "your" customers get signage elsewhere

    I think you could be right about that. Too much spending during covid. I have to be more careful in winter with bill collecting, some businesses are slower up here and they don't always have money until THEY get paid from some job they are doing.
  7. Do you give customers little samples with their orders?

    I love the idea of the state or city sticker!!! And I have also printed some little "extras" for customers...it sometimes results in another order. They didn't realize they needed them until I gave them to them LOL
  8. Do you give customers little samples with their orders?

    Every time I order from Sticker Mule I get free hot sauce and a bunch of little stickers - I love it! I used to give can coozies and recently started giving American Flag stickers and a business card magnet with every order that I just put with the invoice. Sometimes if a customer orders Gildan...
  9. When "your" customers get signage elsewhere

    You posted the same time as me. Yes, I think inflation is getting people upset but we not immune to inflation so our prices have to go up also. You are right on with the Emergency Pricing. I'm going to do that, I like the wording on that! Since I saw her post I've been trying to get the right...
  10. When "your" customers get signage elsewhere

    Here's a sign I lost yesterday to the competition - AND I'M HAPPY ABOUT IT. Old crabby guy walks in asking if I'm the gal that was in xxxx city, I said no, that was Penny, she retired and sold her business to new people. He asked for one coroplast double sided sign with step stake that says...
  11. When "your" customers get signage elsewhere

    I get a lot of those late night calls, texts and FB messages. I also sometimes put my phone on DND. Got a FB message last night at 8:30 asking if I could please add 2 shirts to the order they need for tomorrow. This summer has really been on my nerves with people expecting things done asap and...
  12. Wholesale discount

    He's just trying to get a deal. Don't budge on your price. Your business is like mine, it's not set up to do wholesale. You aren't buying 10 rolls of 50 yard vinyl for a discount, you aren't cutting 50 yards at a time or printing 2 rolls a day. You are doing small jobs and small runs therefore...
  13. Urgent Design Help

    Funny cuz the Google listing says "Permanently Closed" but he still has his FB page running and it shows OPEN 7-5 daily - drives me nuts! He closed in 2017. And yes, for a while it DID smell like fish in here! I had remove a bunch of minnow tanks when I bought it! Just for you I found these...
  14. When "your" customers get signage elsewhere

    Funny thing is before I left for vacation I stayed late and had 6 people mad at me to finish up this stupid job. It's still sitting here 2 weeks later...
  15. Urgent Design Help

    I agree, I think the most important thing is URGENT CARE, not the branding. Kind of like in my front window it says SIGNS really large. Since the prior business was a bait shop, it was important for me to convey that I make SIGNS, and don't sell guns and fish bait. 6 years later and I had a guy...
  16. Estimate and Accounting Software

    Since it's only me here looking at stuff I don't really have to worry much. They do have several list options. There is also a space on each job where you can assign certain tasks to a specific person and then print their task list out. When I get very busy I usually print the list out and start...
  17. Urgent Design Help

    Marco - that's considerably better than the original. You are on the right track, keep going. Maybe try a few different color options. the guys are right about the black/red, black/blue combos. Many seem to use a white background, perhaps it represents cleanliness? IDK Maybe you can try the...
  18. SLX+ Good Idea or Bad

    No idea but for regular vehicles I use the SLX+ and I LOVE it. Boudica uses the SLX+ I believe...
  19. Sign Estimating Software

    I used Estimate years ago and I really liked it. I have since changed to SignTracker. I did not import any data. I like it for the estimating part and the job tracker part. There's a lot of extras in it that I haven't gotten to yet. I find it very easy to use. Drop and drag.
