  1. Real Estate - Residential - not sign related

    Will you be using the same color scheme? I really like that! I like the light colored counter in the kitchen, keeps it clean and bright.
  2. Real Estate - Residential - not sign related

    Very busy here also. I would suggest getting in good with an agent so YOU are the first person they call when they hear of something. Start asking your customers if they know of anything going on the market. You'd be surprised how many people say someone's parents just went to a nursing home...
  3. New Profit Center For Your Sign Shop

    My main business is signs and vehicles. I had some requests for tshirts so I bought a heat press. It's turned into half my business. I just bought an IColor printer for full color transfers, the apparel has brought in a lot of money for me.
  4. Pfffft Bring It

    Would love to see some pics, we just got about 4" Saturday in my WI county, disappointing.
  5. Percent of Jobs by sales price

    I used to take on every small job that came in the door. However, with these smaller jobs create a bottleneck for larger jobs, it soon became obvious to me that I need to start saying no to some of them. This is especially true during busy times. I will almost always take on any vehicle, sign...
  6. What made you smile today

    During the slow months I offer sign parties. The number has been cut way down since Covid but today I hosted a girl scout troop so they could earn the Arts and Crafts Badge. They were such nice little girls and so appreciative and well behaved, it made me smile!
  7. What made you smile today

    I put money on shag carpet... green or orange. When can we see the rest of the room? My old house had a pink tiled bathroom for a couple years and shag green carpet in the basement with wood paneling too!
  8. What made you smile today

    I had an off-site install of 4 pick up trucks this morning. I didn't make any mistakes I couldn't fix on-site! AND it's Friday!!!
  9. Rant tshirts

    I always tell them they have to come in and pay cash also, never hear from them again!:)
  10. Discussion January 2021...how did everyone do?

    Very good January, way better than last year. I do notice the last week it's slowing down a little bit. I was shocked, the week between Christmas and New Years is usually dead, not this year, I was slammed with orders and estimates. I anticipate it will slow down in February through mid-March.
  11. removing grommets

    UGH. Sounds like a PITA customer to me also! I do find Realtors to be hard to work with and cheap!
  12. Question: Still new to vinyl cutting. Sawtooth or jagged edges on Vinyl Cuts?

    I've been married to my Graphtec for 14 years and I love him to pieces! We have a great relationship, he never cheats, doesn't talk back and has been the most reliable husband I've ever had, and I've had TWO! LMAO!
  13. removing grommets

    Paint them! I use Rustoleum High Performance Enamel spray paint. Make a paint mask using vinyl.
  14. The Vaccine - you going to take it or no?

    Didn't anyone watch the news on inauguration day? The tests have been set "too sensitive" since the beginning- until inauguration day. What a joke. Here's just one article. It says up to 70% of tests were false positives. Do you realize how many deaths were wrongly attributed to Covid? Biden is...
  15. Vinyl Posters Cold Weather Install on Windows

    NOT GOOD! I have another one coming up with 4 windows (solid white with cut words) and one door. I told her she's going to have to wait until 30 degrees. It's difficult to work with gloves on and I'm not getting frost bite LOL

    "No need to come to us, we'll come to you" - he fixed computers LOL I don't want to say who he is but I just looked back on the my job pictures LOL
  17. Vinyl Posters Cold Weather Install on Windows

    Update. I used the Rapid Tac on both windows and the first window went great, I kept the graphics inside until I was ready and no issues. The second one was a disaster, it was on the other side of the building, it was windy as hell, I got locked out of the building, a few swear words happened...
  18. Vinyl Posters Cold Weather Install on Windows

    I have some Oracal 751 to install "hours" on a door this afternoon. It's 32 degrees and sunny, I'm going to use Rapid Tac 2 as it says its great for cold weather installs. IDK...first time installing in the cold and using the Rapid Tac 2 for it.
  19. Vehicle Lettering Vinyl Options

    For cut vinyl I use Oracal or 3M. I only use Avery if I need to color match. 17 years ago I used Avery and I got a bad roll and 6 months after I lettered a vehicle it was peeling off. I was in the process of getting reimbursed from Avery and the guy ended up being arrested for child...
