  1. Discussion Slowing down or staying busy?

    Just curious how everyone’s doing? I noticed a slow down but I’m still busy with larger projects. The work load is manageable compared to the last 2 quarters in which I was very overwhelmed. Im not so rushed which is nice and cuts down on errors. I have quite a few jobs for business who want get...
  2. Can't believe no mention of it, yet...................................................... ??

    I voted yesterday but apparently it didn't make much difference. Still have "Bernie" from weekend at Bernie's at the helm. My brother-in-law voted before work. Then an hour later my sister voted. Obviously their names were next to each other. She noticed he didn't sign the book!!!! She said...
  3. Discussion How do you stay organized?

    Yes, you are 100% correct on this. Last night I watched a couple videos and I'm still a little confused however, I did see that entering all of your pricing is easy with a spreadsheet. I already have one so I just need to make some column adjustments to upload it! I am quite impressed with the...
  4. Jingle all the Way

    This is close...I took a chance and clicked on something on Etsy. I buy quite a bit of girly clipart on there...
  5. Discussion How do you stay organized?

    Currently I do my estimating on a spreadsheet and I really do like it but I looked at the SignTracker and I think if I set it up I could get used to it. It seems very similar to my spreadsheet. So now...I have my spreadsheet, Signtracker and Wave. Definitely going to use the "slow period" coming...
  6. Discussion How do you stay organized?

    I don't...I use Wave Accounting which is free online. I am thinking of switching but I like Wave because it's really simple and clean. So far I didn't look too much at the estimating feature but once I figure that all out I might switch to Quickbooks.
  7. Discussion How do you stay organized?

    I replaced my pile of job boxes with a monitor that has Signtracker on it! LOL!!!!! And to be honest...3 monitors is plenty, I'm getting whiplash with 3!
  8. CALENDARED VINYL with MATTE OVERLAM for print & cut vehicle decals

    If it's something you don't do often then just order it from Firesprint or Signs365...you will receive in a couple days just upload your file for pennies compared to ordering an entire roll. For vehicles I always use a cast vinyl. Signs365 is this stuff below and Firesprint would be the...
  9. Importing Vinyl From China

    That's an interesting thought...
  10. Importing Vinyl From China

    The photos are from that business Gino found. IF this is his business...BEAUTIFUL WORK!!!! I would be very proud to own this business. The one photo is from a Bar Mitzvah "inspired by his favorite line of sneakers and luxury goods. Custom made elements featuring Nike Supreme, Adidas Yeezy and...
  11. Discussion How do you stay organized?

    Just wanted to update. I've been using clipboards and paper since I opened 5 years ago. I tried doing other things and always went back to paper. WELL...the guy on here who mentioned Signtracker caught my attention. I've been using it for 2 weeks now and unless I have paper notes, I don't bother...
  12. Importing Vinyl From China

    How do I not remember this Great White event? I had to look it up and I STILL don't remember it! It looks horrifying!
  13. Importing Vinyl From China

    My son's friend bought a tailgate decal off Amazon. The vinyl is from China. I said he could apply it at my shop, with my tools, with me watching. All the standard application and cleaning procedures were followed. Here's what it looked like 2 weeks later. Corner all lifted and 3/4 of the edges...
  14. Inflation Versus Interest Rates

    I guess we do! LOL My son was lucky. He started for a landscape company when he was 16 and worked a ton of hours during those 3 summers before he left. He already had saved $15,000 before he started. Scholarships were in the $1500 range and he had a few. He also worked for a landscaper during...
  15. Inflation Versus Interest Rates

    LOL! I kinda figured we would lose to the Bills...not a big fan of Rodgers anyway. Unfortunately, it's not my son and she's not my daughter so I can only say so much. My BF wasn't bothered by it until this weekend, she's a very nice girl and it's odd for him to date someone who is nice so he...
  16. Dealing with cheap real estate agents

    Nor did I...I PM'd her and used male pronouns...she informed me she was a she. OOPS
  17. Inflation Versus Interest Rates

    My son paid for all his college from working in high school and during college and graduates in February, should have zero debt. He had a lot of scholarships also. I told him my parents kicked me out after a few months after I got my degree and he will be out also - that's just the way it is. He...
  18. Inflation Versus Interest Rates

    I think this is exactly right. I have a couch dweller at my house...my BF son (23) lives in the basement. He had an apartment with his girlfriend but then moved back a year ago and hasn't left. Now he has a new girlfriend who is 25 and she has a 200# dog and lives with her parents who are very...
  19. Inflation Versus Interest Rates

    Just a general statement about how to save money when times are tough, not directed at all towards RJ's students. There's one class they should require every high school senior to take. It's called "Math for Everyday Living". In this class you clipped out a job in the newspaper, you clipped...
