  1. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    Lets do another analogy. You have a revenue issue at the ole' signarama so the master minds decide to spend a small amount on advertising every month but business is still slow. So you up it a hair and it slows down more. So it's obvious that you should stop spending anything on advertising...
  2. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    The market has decided, pay is the #1 reason that they are having a difficult time retaining educators and finding new people that want to enter the field. They have also been saying for years that the lack of funding hurts educational outcomes this is from lack of funding for specific teaching...
  3. Tritium sign disposal

    Sounds like a company that's licensed in hazmat should be used. As I read it, it's not a matter of if you should, it's a matter of it being legal for you to do it. "To dispose of a sign properly, a general licensee must transfer the sign to a specific licensee—such as a manufacturer...

    Private schools are chomping at the bit to get that sweet government money. They, like many other industries ahem...... electric cars, will really twist some stuff up to paint the picture of why they deserve free money. The private hospital system is doing a fantastic job, couldn't be any...
  5. Question Anyone finding purchasing departments are recently changing their policy regarding purchase orders?

    We had a large customer who runs all capex through a LOC and payment comes direct from their bank. Maybe this could have something to do with it? If we make an invoice in lieu of an estimate then void it until the order comes through or is completed. It sort of screws with your A/R and then...
  6. Looking for a metal brake

    The width and material thickness is going to dictate what you need to look at and the price range that you will be in. We have a 4' magnetic brake that we hardly use, anything longer we run around the corner and use one of our customer's brakes. There are a lot of rebranded chinese brakes out...

    Just curious, if you think with no basis that $14k is too much then what should the cost per head be? Why? Show your work so we can all understand how a sign guy knows more than the people that are actually tasked with budgeting.
  8. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    This gets better and better. So you have no kids or kids that are in school or graduated but somehow you have this expert knowledge that schools are failing. Since you feel this way then it must be true? You just sound like the rest of the noise I hear coming from people with a chapped ass...
  9. 2023 Wrap Up. First Year Doing Sign Printing Business, No Experience, Gross 800K, Net 0, Need Advice!

    Build it and they will come doesn't usually work. The main points have been hit by everyone above. I would say that most everyone needs to ignore their covid numbers since they are an anomaly and not representative of your true business. This is what people are going to be faced with in...

    The schools aren't being frivolous with money, it's just expensive because of all the support staff and the infrastructure needed. I worked for the local school board a long time ago, they were tighter than a gnats ass when it came to spending. Everything would be beyond wore out before it was...

    Your cheap ass will put your kid to work and pocket the cash. I know how you Texans are
  12. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    I can agree with most of that. I don't think that giving people tax money for private school in lieu of the school system is a good idea though for a few reasons. One is obvious, it will take money away from an already broke school system which will make it even harder to do one on ones...
  13. Anti Grafitti Lam on Cast Vinyl Reccomendations

    I would assume that vandal guard would work. The vinyl will outlast an anti-graffiti overlaminate so you would probably be fine with calendared.
  14. Need some help with a wireless bridge and NAS

    It worked! Thanks so much!
  15. Need some help with a wireless bridge and NAS

    We have router 1 in the office with a seperate wireless bridge attached and a NAS, the shop has the bridge slave and router 2 inside connected to the bridge. I changed the IP address on router 2, made the name and password the same as router 1, turned off DHCP on router 2 (enabled on 1) and...
  16. Customer Giveaways for plant tours

    Beer should do the trick. You could print a nice skyline or landmark picture of the city that you are from on some ACM. If it's not a ton of people give them some cheap standoffs to mount it with, you can get them on Amazon. It would show off your printing ability and give them something that...
  17. Logo Design

    Me too. Yard guy, AI got something right.
  18. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    hey. It's over when Gino yells "Thats Enough!" and no sooner than that
  19. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    That tells you absolutely nothing, at all. I could spend $500k on a Ferrari but it wouldn't make me a better driver.
  20. Okay, I think I have a winner here..................................................................................

    That's a big disservice to the kids. The gifted programs exist because those kids are in the at risk category and require a different learning structure. It's more along the lines of a learning disability than it is a gift but when everyone thinks they're a genius there's no value in intellect...
