First of all, I love this idea and I'm totally stealing it. Second of all, I am going to one-up you and offer this to anyone in my community that wants this for their kids. Besides being a cool thing to do, free stickers is a great way to build good will which could also pay dividends when this...

I appreciate you taking the time to reply, but can you give me ay details whatsoever? It is a hefty upgrade cost so I really want to know what the specific advantages are. I don't mind spending money, but I hate wasting. It. Thanks again.

I am buying a new Epson S40600 which obviously comes with GamaPrint, but I have the option to upgrade to Thrive with the order. Is the upgrade worth it? I cannot seem to find any info on the differences and would love to hear opinions based on real world experience. We print all sorts of...

Wells Fargo ran out of money for PPP in less than a day. I did this as soon as they had their form live on 4/4 and just got a notice yesterday from them saying they hit their limit and are not doing anymore loans. They are our commercial bank and you are only supposed to apply at your own bank.

Thank you. That is all incredibly helpful. I really appreciate you taking the time. When I talk to the Epson salespeople, they tell me that the Mutoh uses older tech Epson printheads (not sure if they got better or worse or if that is even accurate), so it is good to hear a testimonial for the...

I appreciate the reply, but I am not sure if I implied in some way that I was thinking to buy from afar. As it turns out, the last time I bought a printer from a local dealer (Grimco), it was the worst thing I have done since I opened my business because they royally screwed me on the service...

Not really because they are 2-3 times the price.

I would love to get some opinions based on personal experiences on either of these two printers. If you have used both and can compare, that would be incredible, but I believe I have narrowed it down to these two. Will use for mostly wraps and general signage. Speed is not a huge factor, but...

I have no problem with someone being new to the business, BUT this part pisses me off: "Our prices are a bit lower than most business around right now because I want to earn as much experience as I can" - You damage the industry with this attitude because then your local competitors are going to...

Advice on valuation and selling the business Hi there, Let me start by echoing everyone else's sentiment regarding your husband's health situation. Sorry to hear about that. Valuation of a business is tricky and there is no actual formula for it because it largely depends on finding a...

Merry Christmas all

I do not own a Fastsigns, but I would certainly consider spending the cash on equipment, personnel, and direct advertising before buying a name. I know you were looking for input from Fastsigns owners, but I figured I'd give you my $.02 anyway. ;-)

Good call...Dead on.

I have not seen anyone actually airbrush in years. Heat transferred plasticol is all I see around here (South Florida) these days .

I know this is a REALLY old thread - just wondering if there is any new feedback on the Bannerpro? We currently use tape, but have had someissues with it giving out (rarely), but we're also looging for a solution to seal banners in a loop for rotating dispays and banner tape sucks for that...
