  1. App for calculating Sq Footage

    Can you use Documents To Go Pro from the app store? It says you can view, edit, and create excel docs from your phone. Its usually $29.99 but its on sale for $14.99.
  2. 50% Deposit

    I agree with Gino on larger companies not liking to hassle with writing 2 checks. I would try to get ahead of this before I lost the account. We have a lot of accounts on 30 days that will normally pay in under 15. If you can offer terms of 10-14 days it would be a good show of faith on...
  3. Think I need a new MacBook Pro SuperDrive?

    I get all of my HDs and optical drives from Macsales.com. They have replacement super drives for laptops.
  4. business forsale

    All that really matters is how much will it cost up front and how long will it take you to recoup the investment. If you are good with the payback period go for it. If you think you can do a better job advertising and developing the business to shorten the payback then good for you. I f...

    Yes we do.
  6. best solution for interior adhesive wall hooks?

    I agree with jhill that the cost of the 3m hooks should be acceptable even if it does add up to $450 +MU+ install. They should hold up. I put up a couple of the hooks in for my fiance and she hands her purses on them even when they are full. Its been well over a year so it should hold a...
  7. Thoughts on SELLING OUT!

    Good luck. I'm sure this an opportunity that many of us would jump at as well.
  8. Thoughts on SELLING OUT!

    Another option could be that your client totally buys into the idea of having an internal signage and design operation and they find someone else to run it. I'm sure they could put out an ad in a few surrounding states and find someone with similar design experience and a second with similar...

  10. Imprintables Warehouse Failing

    Too many words to read the whole post. Just wanted to help out. Oh well... Next time I'll read the entire rant.
  11. Imprintables Warehouse Failing

    I work with Mike Koval at Imprintables and he is great! Try giving Mike a call. He is very responsive by phone or email even when he is at trade shows. You could also try talking to the sales manager Adam.
  12. Red oracal 651 scrap, any way to recycle?

    Can you give it to a schools art department? I remember in intermediate school we had bins and bins of small scrap colored vinyl. We did a lot of projects with those scraps. :) I give cases of scrap paper to the elementary school in my area and they have brought a few good projects my way.
  13. VersaWorks don't print crop marks

    You need to make sure that you have enough room for the crop marks. I have tried printing a 36 inch wide image on 38 wide vinyl and I had to reduce the size a touch. I use margin marks now and I don't have any issues now. You don't get any type of warning that the crop marks are too large...
  14. Same print, different text for 1,500

    I did a quick google of "variable data corel" and came up with this http://www.epiloglaser.com/tl_impositionvar.htm Hope it will help you. I know certain versions of flexi have variable data options, but not sure which ones.
  15. Spot ON PMS Color matching software...

    I have a similar "Spot On" application in the rip for my Xerox digital printer. You select your PMS color and print out a test sheet then select the closest color. Once I am satisfied that my PMS color is close the chip color save it. Every time I print with that PMS color it will come...
  16. Client emails that make you crazy!

    I find that this happens a lot when people design by committee. One person will send one idea to the entire group and copy you then someone else replies to the entire group. This isn't normal and I have had to request to be left out of the email chain until they decide what they want. I...
  17. Does this guy seem alittle odd?

    My policy is to take a 50% deposit. I don't usually require deposits for repeat customers unless they are shady to begin with. I deal with many large companies and if I want the business we are at 30 days net from the beginning. I would recommend that you meet at a customers office for...
  18. Need Hotronix Fusion

    Have you tried Imprintables Warehouse? Thats where I got my Hotronix heat press.
  19. SP 540 Shirt printing??

    The printable heat press material comes with a backer attached to it. You would print, cut, weed, attach to the TTD mask then heat press. If you are just using the 1 color film you would cut with reversed image and the backer is the mask when you put it on the shirt to press.
  20. Who make a decent cutter

    I just bought the Image Edge cutting system. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but the videos make it look very user friendly. I bought mine from Lamination Warehouse.
