  1. RFPs, State & Federal Contracts

    I am skeptical about the businesses that say they help you find Gov't contracts. The old fashioned way I know is to just use each entity's website portal to bid. Seems like every state, county, and city have one. Then there's school districts, universities, and individual departments. Then you...
  2. Filling year end capacity

    We're like one or two projects away. I'm pretty motivated to make this our best year yet, and December is one of our slowest months. If you have a project that you're working on with your customer, and you needed a little help to get it done, this might just be your sign. :roflmao: We'll...
  3. Be careful which company you recommend

    Supply chain issues are very very real; however, the only way to operate in this environment is to be transparent about them. This of course is an oversimplification, but it's the best and only option.

  9. Need Help Does anyone have a good recommendation for print vinyl that will stick to outdoor Ice merchandisers?

    We do ALOT of these and our client always uses our standard IJ-35c product. It has never been an issue. https://www.firesprint.com/bubble-free/
  10. Canon Colorado 1650 Print heads and usage

    We've replaced just about all of them within the first year. It was likely our fault, we learned. Just a poor start with service and training. Got it in January, took a few months to get it really running, ruined the printheads in September, took a couple of months to get them replaced. Now we...
  11. Need Help large printing

    You are right. We just don't stock acrylic. It's not in our wheelhouse currently. Styrene does work fine temporarily outdoors. Our largest customer uses it for drive thru menu boards that they replace every 30-90 days. Will it last a year? Not really. Will it last a month or two? Yep. In the...

  13. Just In Free Video Tutorial on Using Filemaker to Manage Jobs

  16. Screened printed Reflective vinyl on coro blanks

    If you called our customer service team, they probably told you we don't do this. It's a request more common than you might think though. Im going to see if we can get a sample of reflective ink I just learned about. Maybe we can do something like this in a fairly cost effective way. It...
  17. What is the best tool to use for "contour" cutting of coroplast?

    I think one of the best tools for this is right here: https://www.firesprint.com/4mm-corrugated-plastic/ :roflmao: But seriously, a really sharp utility knife will accomplish alot. Especially for simple shapes. We contour cut corrugated plastic on our Zund tables. If you are ever in Omaha...
