  1. how does the "little guy" compete

    With all respect. No it does not. There is no need to be in competition with any one. In fact. My personal bizz is a perfect example of this. I have no competition here. None nadda nothing. I am the only one doing what I am doing here. Yes, there are dozens of shops around. But once I had an...
  2. how does the "little guy" compete

    A guy down the street just left the arena. He called me asking to team up. His bizz failed not because I came here. He failed because he didn't have the skills it takes to stay. Simple. Of course I like to say I ran him out. But the truth is.. He didn't have it in the first place.
  3. how does the "little guy" compete

    As for yellow pages ads. I am finishing an experiment with pay per call yp ads. My opinion on yellow page pay per call system is.. It's a complete waste of time. It is an utter failure. It does absolutely nothing to bring in "paying" clients. They "YP" are making too many changes that do...
  4. how does the "little guy" compete

    im sorry,, but give me a break. Lets get real.. Sure,, Walmart a multi billion world wide company has the power to do that. In the real world Very few small businesses have the power to put any other small bizz out. No way now how. Other small bizz's leave or "go out" because they do not have...
  5. how does the "little guy" compete

    More ego driven statements. No one goes out of business because they got run out by another using low prices. Anyone who believes that is living in disney's fantasy land. The reason ppl go out of bizz is they do not have the skills it takes to stay in bizz or they do not have the capital...

  7. Realtor Customer of the month

    The stolen sign is in the hands of the original property owner. He is likely ready to deal some death from above for the realtor who had you post that sign. Ask me how I know? It happened to me on my property. A sign would appear every few days several times. I took the sign down every time and...

  10. Cheap Vinyl Shrinking

    calendared vinyl will work on flat vehicle surfaces. It will never work over any ridges or curves or creases. It will always shrink back and lift..
  11. Billboard for me... Your opinion

    I have never ever head this from any corporate rep. Ever. In over 20 years I have never heard of this. The only place I ever heard of this is at some sign forums that make unnecessary demands when signing up. Or during some post.
  12. What happened here???

    The same way you can stretch any vinyl when installed. The angle of vinyl to the surface and the squeegee edge.
  13. Avery Vinyl

    I had one roll that I showed to a number of installers. It had shrunk at least 1/2 inch on each end. I was told it never happened when I called about it before any of this went public. That partial roll sat in my place for a long time afterwords waiting for the day to show its face. But later...
  14. What happened here???

    It was stretched while applying it. Then after a while it tried to retract a little and the top part pulled ofa the reflective layer.
  15. Seriously Arlon? Anyone using this stuff please look

    Believe what is best for you. I did not say water running down the vinyl I said cleaning methods. We all know pressure washing causes mucho trouble. Yes?. However. Peeling only from the top and not the bottom says a few things. It does not say the vinyl is the problem. This peeling is nothing...
  16. Seriously Arlon? Anyone using this stuff please look

    its all peeling from the top. None appears to peel from the bottom. I would not suspect the vinyl. I would suspect the cleaning methods.. also some appear to peeel over a ridge.. i would lok at the installation too. Is that calendared vinyl?

  18. Company Slogans. Do you have one?

    A slogan is not supposed to be some catchy phrase. ITs actually supposed to be whats known as an "audio log". That is some phrase that describes your business and makes the client ask you a further questions.
  19. Burned out?

    I'm badly burned out on some aspects of the work. The instant a caller tires to beat me down an a price I hang up. If they try to bargain in the office I say thank you for coming in and get back to work. I have not cut vinyl in any real amount in many months. I gave away my back up cutter. I...
