  2. Time Clock Options

    So Grizzly, what route did you end up going?
  3. Central Florida, small business.

    Sounds like your wife's business is doing pretty well. Mid 6 figures with virtually no equipment is pretty darn good - providing she is marking things up enough. As far as plotters go, I personally have only owned one Roland and that was ages ago - 24 to be exact. When I upgraded to a...
  4. Getting paid from customer using bank ACH method

    I have several large customers that only pay through ACH and others that use a service called Paymode-X. I know for a fact I get a lot of work because I am already "in their systems." Yes, sometimes I have to wait 30-60 days to get paid but I have built up to a point where it is a steady...

    B2sign is my go to for large banners. Got a 35' * 18' one going with them right now.
  6. Has busy melowed out and if so, does spring time bring sales back up?

    January was up over 70% year versus year for us. And that was after a 33% annual increase last year. Finally learning to say "no" to jobs I used to think were critical to my business but after analyzing the numbers it was a giant illusion. Those jobs ended up costing me way more than it was...
  7. New guy interested in pricing thoughts?

    Since you are so new to the business, I HIGHLY recommend picking up a copy and reading Mike Michalowicz's book "Profit First." Implement his strategies as soon as possible and you won't regret it. I did it about 14 moonths ago and really wish I would have 14 years ago. It probably would have...
  8. 3' x 5' Flag Printing with wholesale trade pricing?

    B2sign.com is what I have used for flags
  9. HP Latex 315 Keeps Printing Gray as Blue/Purple After Replacing LC/LM and M/Y Printheads

    Does it print the same on different media? I found that the colors shift depending on the media's base color - some whites are more yellow whereas some whites are more blue. The media can greatly affect grays in my experience. Another factor if using it can be the lamination shifting the...
  10. How's crime / theft in your areas these days?

    Sadly, you are correct. One of the bluest counties in the state. For years the local congressman in one of the districts was a convicted, impeached former federal judge. He was convicted on corruption charges but it didn't matter to people because he had a "D" after his name so they kept...
  11. Time Clock Options

    I currently have an old fashioned time clock but might just give mytimestation a shot. I only have two employees now but want to be able to expand ad this year I am going to focus on process streamlining and integration as much as possible...I'd like to retire someday and want to start stetting...
  12. How's crime / theft in your areas these days?

    Here on the Treasure Coast of Florida, we are pretty good. We had a rash of petty thefts and catalytic converter thieves hitting the are back in 2021 and 2022. They eventually caught the groups doing it and surprise surprise surprise, they were all from Miami-Dade county and many not here...
  13. The annual question...how was business this year?

    Absolutely! It's been tough for me to stay true to the Profit First philosophy mainly because my client base is mainly large home builders and they rarely give deposits so cash flow can be challenging. I have had to "borrow" money from my P and OC accounts on occasion but it happened less and...
  14. The annual question...how was business this year?

    Myself + One Full Time helper & One Part Time Helper after about March. Sales up over 26% versus last year with 4 weeks to go so should end up over 30%. Paid off a bunch of debt accumulated on CC's during the down 2021/2022 post covid years which was killing me. My fault 100% for keeping 2...
  15. fellers black label

    Where are you getting arlon 510 for $140? I see it for $179. Also, I like the black label due to to air egress which I don't think the Arlon 510 is, unless I am mistaken
