    I know the franchises are not popular on this site. And, of course, a good sign shop (independent or franchise) can uphold and meet the brand standards of any company. The discussion is that of EJ being a FASTSIGNS National account may be why the payment process is an issue. We have all had...

    Of course not all FASTSIGNS are created equal. The model has changed over the past 30 years - hence our tagline "more than fast more than signs". Most are full service production / fabrication (including channel etc), some have cobrands with full line printers, one center has the amazon...

    Well to stir the pot a bit more..... Edward Jones is a "national" account of FASTSIGNS. All sign orders (exterior and interior) are supposed to (by contract) go through FASTSIGNS National accounts. The local EJ broker is not supposed to go directly to a local sign company - not even the local...

  14. I need advice on deciding between three approved ADA manufacturers

    I believe, that all 3 companies sell direct to the end user. You can call them and give the project name and they will tell you if they are. (This has happened to us.). You may get a small reseller discount (from Apco and 2/90 - not ASI). You won’t be able to compete. Quote another framing...
  15. Looking for Website Design & Cost

    We can add content - local pics, staff, catalogue. FS has a huge variety of content to change things up. But the overall look and feel is the same (which I don’t like). So to answer your question, yes, we can do our own thing within the FS framework and through FS.
  16. Looking for Website Design & Cost

    Yes! I totally agree! FS has had this layout for several years. Never been a fan. Hoping for a revamp soon.
