  1. Companies who use Google Adwords

    So true. I have been running them for a little over a year now and feel like it is a fine tuned working machine. The whole month is paid off within 1-2 orders. Yes we turn away a lot of the tire kickers, but we also pull in some really nice jobs. It all depends on how it is managed.
  2. Opinion on Color from Signs365

    I love signs 365, but their color matching is laughable. They are a great company and I don't mean to be harsh, but it is. I have heard of others having great success with their pms matching, but unfortunately we have not. I will definitely still order from them and continue using them in the...
  3. Buy local?

    We do a ton of political work and I can promise you, it is a down and dirty market. Unless your a screen printer or you are running a $1m flatbed, you will never compete.
  4. UPS Is Unbelievable!!!

    Found a $400 questionable shipment on last weeks invoice and called customer service. This is the second questionable charge like that in one month. Somebody has been over nighting auto parts on our UPS account. I was told they would block it after the first call but of course they didn't. I...
  5. The best banner material?

    Herculite Bantex material is great. We have been printing it for probably 10 years and love it.
  6. contour cut static cling

    Ha! Thats what we ended up doing. We ran the cling through in roughly 54"x36" sheets which took FOOOOOOREEEEEVVVVEEEER, but it got the job done.
  7. contour cut static cling

    Learned this the hard way. Took a job that called for 10 rolls of static cling to be reverse printed, screen white backup and then contour cut. Everything was fine until the contour cut came into play. We had somebody babysitting and cussing our plotter for an entire week. You can definitely...
  8. Top 5 Tips for Effective Wrap Design

    Great article!
  9. Where do I find these step stakes?

    We buy a similar stand from Parker Davis in NC. Usually buy a skid or two to get the price down.
  10. little league pee wee banner

    Gino is correct. Here is a photo of the banners we have done at local minor league stadium. They are all 8'x16'.
  11. Come take this piece of junk

    That is great news. Our machine went down the first couple months we owned it (faulty head fried the motherboard twice) and know how frustrating it can be. No where near the issues you have mentioned, but it always seems to happen at the worst time. Thankfully Epson has always been very...
  12. Come take this piece of junk

    Would love to hear an update. We own a GS6000 and have been very happy with it, but you can't help but feel a little nervous when you hear about situations like this.
  13. Best Value for Flatbed Printers

    All are very true points. HP puts on one hell of a demo. Our demo operator, Craig (Shultz?), was incredible to watch. The belt on the FB is made for continuos production compared to a true flatbed. I am willing to sacrifice a little bit of quality for faster speed. It all depends on what...
  14. Flush pad

    Bump, anybody had any success with the Mutoh flush pad? If so, where and how much?
  15. Price Beatdown

    This is exactly why we don't chase the wrap business. I will happily quote whatever comes our way with a healthy margin and lose probably 75% of the bids. I have no interest in spending that amount of money on materials and labor and not making s#$% on it. I can make this same amount of money...
  16. Your thoughts of new Epson's SureColor wide format printer.

    And the prices just keep coming down.
  17. Rogue Roller

    And not to mention the amount of space.
  18. Grimco 15oz Key Banner

    We printed a couple sample rolls of it and it prints great. Not nearly as thick (felt more like a 14oz) but still a good product. I may be trying Advantages 18oz blockout. Anybody had any experience with this?
  19. Grimco 15oz Key Banner

    What kind of printer/inks are you using?
  20. Grimco 15oz Key Banner

    Thats fine if its blockout or 2 sided, just need to know if its any good. Any experience with it?
