I was just at the NBM show and the owner from Ace Transfer in Ohio was there and he just got into that biz. Very nice guy.

I love these programs! Look at that limo at the end of the clip! What a life! I think the home based stuff is great. A lot of our first time customers come in after trying them. Oh, and the Yudu is half price at Joanns and they have a 40% off coupon on top of that. What a deal.

we use carbonite for backup on all computers. no extra work for it, just auto-magic.

Trip to Sign Mart in Orange, off to the NBM show in Long Beach, Back to the shop to work and pick up some donated equipment and inventory from the widow of a friend in the biz who was killed by a criminal that had just stolen a car and hit him at 100mph. Sorry, didn't know how else to put that...

I was able to track down something I could use at a plastics place.

I have a request for a banner that has a clear pocket on the front so the customer can add changes to their banner over time. Is there such a thing out there for this? Where to get?

TIA on this one.

It really depends on the court you are going to. For a while San Bernardino County exempted buisness owners from Jury Duty but that is gone now. They do 'one day or one trial'.

Yeah, we had a guy insist on not paying sales tax. He said he never pays sales tax. I guess not because we didn't sell him anything.

It is pretty saturated. The art store prints banners and signs, the clothing store bought a screen printer and prints shirts, the 2nd hand store does banners, the t shirt place does banners, the sign place does shirts. That is within 1 block of us. If this guy comes in there will be 8 shops...

So the almost daily posts of how some guy in his basement selling signs for a buck a foot on craigs list don't match up to my 3 posts on legitimate competition and the effects of the economy on our business? I thought it fit, just an ongoing observation of the competition and how the larger...

i liked the 'under the table' part. not sure how that would avoid making payment though.

I actually welcome similar businesses to mine in the same area. We get a lot of customers from these places on things they don't do. This guy is in an indoor flea market and they doubled his rent when his lease came up. I can't say he would do better in a setting like where we are though.

We had another competitor come in during our farmers market asking a lot of questions about the downtown area and rents. He wants to move from his current location to be down by us. We already have 7 down here, was 8 but one guy closed up. I don't mind this type of competition though. I don't...

What do they want? Where is the scam?

Just got this, not sure what the hook is, other than maybe they offer paid services to rid us of this internet scam but here it is. 'yourcompanyname' had my web domain.

We get that too and it comes in 2 forms. Some start out with the donation request and others give us specs and place an order or start the order process and then ask for a donation. When we don't do it most walk out. We ask for a copy of their articles of incorporation, EIN and SOS number to...

all i can say to that is 'holy shit!'

In the last 18 months we have had about a dozen people walk in looking for work. Most of them just ask if we are hiring. Some of them are not very good at that. Only one brought in a resume. At least she was prepared. We had 2 people that came in together looking for work. I guess they...

do you have a brand name?
