You are in Norwood, How many live there, 600? 1/3 of the people there live below the poverty level. It's not higher standards or cost of living, you just live in the sticks.

Here is another one.... http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/corelr-announces-winners-of-2011-coreldrawr-international-design-contest-1563324.htm

The badgering stopped after about the 10th post... the rest of the posts are a critique of the first 10 posts.

Then accept the idea of a loss leader. Either understand why it took 4 hours, or create a process that streamlines the layout process for your stationary design. I have layed out business cards in minutes, and some hours. Sometimes it's being uninspired, sometimes it's the fried chicken I ate...

Most sign companies treat stationary like loss leaders, most sign companies design and price stationary according to their own idea of what it's worth usually based on low end or bottom feeder competition. It is my opinion after reading quite a few post on business card and stationary prices...

Most freebie typefaces are the wrong ones... Typefaces that are too decorative are USUALLY the wrong ones... You need to develop an eye for good type by looking at good design. When starting out in design, do research on every job you are doing and look for examples of good design that apply...

Not everyone buys a cutter and software and starts making signs... but in a poll done quite a while back, most do. I did answer his question while giving him advice. Cut vinyl is a good way to get into this slowly, but offering yard sale signs is not the way... A lot of these newbie post...

Maybe not that high... though I would pay to watch him do his first wrap. Of course he would have to pay us to cut him out of his vinyl cocoon he would probably get himself wrapped up in...

What kind of degree do you have? 1. yes 2. no, you will need transfer tape How much are you going to sell these signs for when most people can get them at Walmart or Home Depot for a couple of bucks. By the time you layout the sign, cut it, weed it and apply it, deduct the costs, the sign is...

Thanks for answering the question, I have been looking for a job for a while, while running my own business. I think what you are asking for is reasonable. I ask because I am the overqualified guy and looking for the owners point of view. I have never been interested in running my own...

What's a reasonable wage, and what is way out of your league?

First off, ignore the flame posts... Second, a lot of people like introductions... especially your experience or what kind of business you are getting into... This is a sign making site, but there are people who screenprint, embroider and sell/make promotional items, so why not stickers? And...

Just in case, Stacy, I don't know if your husband is officially disabled by medicaid, but if he is, there is a program that allows you to get paid to take care of him. Over here in California, we have IHSS. In your state it's called "Consumer Directed Care (http://www.cdcplus.org/) When my wife...

looks real good... about the spelling, I have done oopsies like that and was awake for days till they were fixed. You have to laugh it off, walk it off or have a drink and let it go... (though I never have been able to do it)

Maybe switch to a Mac and you can alleviate the possibility by 98%... Oh I went there... :ROFLMAO: Still seems remote, but I would not run my business worrying about that.

Except for the bible and E-myth: I have none of the others. I'm real selective of my reading too. But mostly because I'm a designer only. My focus is usually on inspiration. The business side I go to the standard books on how to run a design business. A sign business, like a design business has...

One thing that sticks in my mind, you got nothing most experienced employees need to know. And a newbie will still need experience to implement that information. What possible information does the average sign shop have that an employee would want that they don't already have access to without...

Not anymore, I had lunch... :corndog:

I know, when I was looking for a job, I interviewed at quite a few places, my specialty is architectural/environmental graphics and large scale sign jobs That usually requires a license. I asked each company if they had one, most did not, a few lied and said they did, when they didn't. They...

I later said this.....
