  1. What is wrong with S101 today?

    It's like a dinosaur's tail. Very sluggish.
  2. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    Robert........ Ya gotta know what your credentials are, such as being brutally honest with yourself. Are ya any good ?? Are you a business person or just a mechanic ?? Are you willing to invest ANYTHING in yourself besides cheap talk and free gimmicks ?? What is your hurry to make business...
  3. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    Robert, one doesn't just say one day..... I'm gonna be a sign person and then go out and start shouting to the masses how good I am. You don't HOPE for something to happen. Your thought out plan should include training on your desired trade, becoming good at it, then making your work available...
  4. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    Other than pound the pavements and talk to other sign shops who needed hand painters..... none of this other gobbledigook was around back then. Yellowpages, radio ads, television ads, run specials in the newspaper and go to sign mixers when they started up/ Being around like-minded people was...
  5. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    That ain't free to do, unless you're a one-time guest.
  6. Robert's First Town Hall Meeting

    So, your title is Zero Cost Marketing and you want us to figure out the various zero cost methods ?? Your idea of marketing is not my idea at all, based upon your OP. Your second view is not in my opinion marketing, either. Marketing is simply getting your product or service out there. You...
  7. Question Using Vinyl/Wrap over PVC Posts

    I wouldn't see why not, as long as it's a good grade.
  8. Ronan: Japan Color VS Aquacoat

    Yeah, looks good, but I have a question. The 3 vehicles in the background are identical in each photo. The placement and everything else is exactly the same. But your murals are different colors and a different word. Those look like cement structures. How does that work ??

  12. How do you charge for cut decals?

    I don't think it matters much what somebody else gets, if they have the perfect setup with adequate help in place to just turn them out Figure what your material cost, time, overhead, profit, waste and combined effort is for you to produce them and punch in your shop's price scale. Some...
  13. "Sandwich Generation"....a word of gratitude

    My mother-in-law lived with us til the day she died. I loved having her around. She was short, about 3'10", but she didn't have any legs. They were both cut off, so she was a handful. She was very heavy, even without legs. I used to tell her, she was like a life buoy. My father took care...
  14. Gold leaf flaking issues

    Aawww........... don't be so mean. Like I said, it's an open forum, you came looking for help and decided you didn't like what anyone had to say. Now, you wanna dictate who can say or do what YOU want. Things, including life, just don't work that way. Welcome to the village.
  15. What is wrong with S101 today?

    Seems to working fine this morning. I'm just not sure the dates are all correct. So, all-in-all, it took a day to fix things and get them back to some normalcy. I remember some in the past taking much much longer.
  16. Gold leaf flaking issues

    Dlee, you came here looking for answers. Many of us have tried to help, but you have all the answers. That's all well & good. However, don't be telling me what I should and shouldn't be saying or doing, just because you're ticked off. Check the ego at the door and let's start over.
  17. Gold leaf flaking issues

    I kinda think anyone answering this has one or two of these under their belt. Personally, I got into gilding maybe 10 years after I was already hand lettering. I'm now at it 49 years professionally, but ya can add about 5 or 5 years to that cause I was doing it throughout high school before...
  18. Gold leaf flaking issues

    Personally, I don't consider the fast size to be superior, not at all. Since you insist it has nothing to do with your size, it might not, but with the amount of area you need to cover, answer me this. Did you put all your sizing on, wait and then go to town or do an area at a time and address...
