I enjoyed making signs more before I bought my printer. I only did because more and more of my customers needed a logo with fades/whatnot. It got to a Point where I was picking prints up left and right from my closest competitor. I still cut a lot of vinyl. I think cut vinyl looks better for...

Take your time when posting, your not helping your credibility here. I had a 24" Graphtec that worked like a champ for over 6 years, now I wish I didn't let it go for $400 $5000 is wayyyy to low Make a solid business plan down to alcohol, paperclips and 1" masking tape. Do you have a work...

Incredible Amazing portfolio

That is a great idea with the pads. I have done this with a rectangular custom acrylic logo matched with gemini letters in stucco and felt safe. Not to be stupid but how would you mount the pads to the aluminum back of the sign? Acrylic glue aint gonna hold. You could go through the face but...

I don't know man, you have got a ton of great advice from a lot that know a heck of a lot more than me. I see you put up a lot of threads on here asking for advice. I actually got put off a little by it but I have learned a lot and am trying to soak in some of the stuff that has been said in...

I wanted to see what the & looked like in the "P" then I got carried away I can't stand when kerning is dif on 2 words in a line like your last proof I'm no expert designer and I usually hate the feedback when I play with a logo but it was fun with my Jack 2 tacos for a buck.

about right for wholesale 1" or smaller text a little more

surely you mean per sq inch?

I love how some people just assume they know your installation. These are obvious people with little experience. stucco or stucco type walls can be a problem. If you have a sign that needs to be PERMANENT and other sign guys come and use 2 cent anchors and kids yank them off the wall creating...

I didn't start my own business to follow some guide. I charge whatever it's worth to me. If a direction isn't worth going in "for me" then I charge enough for it to be worth it. A set system would not give you as much control over what direction you would want to take.

I honestly don't know how I would ever put a system other than 30 day on a lot of my customers. I do a lot of commercial real estate stuff. With those companies I deal with 12+ agents at each company. Once you set up payment this way all the agents start calling. Most of the time I get paid by 2...

My first post Be careful. A lot of times it is like chicken wire behind the stucco with nothing to grab on to. We have used adhesive along with anchors. But I would inform the customer of whatever you are doing. Our local theatre chain uses this everywhere and when you drill in it is hollow...

Unfortunately my local supplier just got bought out by Grimco and I am realizing everyday that I relied on their customer service more than I should have. I am pretty positive that it was some form of LORD Adhesive. They carried a lot of their products and I used them for more than one...

I am a couple miles away from "Craftsman Industries" they have to be one of the biggest if not the biggest supplier of wrapped and specialty vehicles in the state if not the country. I have lost bids for larger box truck wraps with design for cheaper than that so I would guess this would be...

The glass look is popular right now but may not be in a few years. The shadow looks alright now but might be tricky with centering in other uses. The black line separates the logo from the name If you go with SIGNS & GRAPHICS you might be able to reverse it out on the line under impact with the...

Yeah what's up with the first design in this thread? Was it some kind of joke?

Wirenut SIGNS Has a nice ring to it. Yellow, orange, red plastic looking letters. Do it

New customers paid in full upon completion. Over $1000 50% up front Accounts 30 days (90% of your collection problems) I never offer this, wait for them to ask and then weigh their worth and risk. Make personal relationships with EVERY CUSTOMER. if they care for you and your family/business you...

I really doubt that is the case
