  1. New poll - please vote - my goal is to have at least 100 votes.

    Ahh, Robert...... don't you get the message ?? No one is interested in this. I've tried to be nice, but you are asking questions or looking for answers which have been answered many many times over the years. You're bringing up old hat and quite frankly, while it might be important to you...
  2. Shop your wholesalers

    :u rock:
  3. Pressure treated lumber shortage

    Was at Home Depot on Sunday and they had a whole sh!tload of them in 8', 10', 12' and 16'. Not around here.... anyways, not yet.
  4. Customer Mask Requirements

    That's a kinda easy fix. You can approach from two points of view. Your counter person politely says, sir, would you mind moving behind the barrier for all of our protection........ or you pull out a 38" Louisville Slugger and say..... move behind the barrier, bub..... or else. I still have...
  5. Question My first poll - retail store?

    I always looked at it, as someone selling to the the end-user, from whatever device needed. Therefore, selling through a vending machine, outta your house, internet, brick & mortar building..... its endless the myriad of ways to sell goods or services. Even if you make it from start to finish...
  6. Question My first poll - retail store?

    Wouldn't it be more effective if the second choice was more of a series of other possibilities, like wholesale or fabricator ??
  7. My 8-Year Old was researching Martin Luther King...

    Give him a Mr. T starter kit.
  8. Maybe real business advice

    That's all fine and dandy. If your business model needs that, then by all means do it. I didn't say it was wrong, but I know for a fact through personal and many friends in all kindsa businesses, this happens and it is grossly abused. I got a call about 8:30, just Friday night, from a regular...
  9. Customer Mask Requirements

    If it bothers you, put up one of those giant sneeze guards. We have it posted on our door that you can wear a mask and we observe social distancing, but that doesn't mean you must enforce it 100%.
  10. Cut vinyl on printed?

    No problem whatsoever. Just be sure its really good and squeaky clean before you put it on. Oh, and make sure you do it right the first time, cause vinyl on vinyl has the best adhesion properties of all.
  11. My 8-Year Old was researching Martin Luther King...

    Smart kid. Was she adopted ????? :confused:
  12. Maybe real business advice

    The only problem with that is..... you no longer have business hours. You are at their beckon call...... literally.
  13. Shop your wholesalers

    There's no need to play games and send love letters to everybody. It's a business transaction, from both sides. You always need to keep your vendors honest. Chumming up to one will work here or there, but not across the board, forever. Regardless of the vendor, you always need to price...
  14. PERFORATED VINYL.. WHAT THE HECK..

  15. Please help what Silicon adhesive for this particular application

    I can't see your picture.
  16. Lamination Cost and Pricing....

    Do you have your overhead figured in ?? Insurance(s) ?? What about waste ?? You sound way too cheap. And like mentioned, don't itemize it for your customer, just give them an end cost totally. We usually price it with a printed cost and a lamination cost and recommend laminating almost...
  17. When a potential client begins to introduce a new project.

    No, I'm not missing your point, but I might've missed your personal experience. Back then, there was television, radio, newspaper, phonebooks, word of mouth and hitting the streets. Today, we have so many other avenues and having ads rammed down our throats with reinforcement is no longer...
  18. When a potential client begins to introduce a new project.

    What Fred is talking about is from like 50 years ago. Totally..... totally different back then. Different mindset, different circumstances and different values. The quest is the same, but not any of the parameters, except people were still involved.
  19. I broke my signs101 and then fixed it (I think)

    Prove it...... or else !!! :supersmilie:
  20. When a potential client begins to introduce a new project.

    You dont need tutorials.... ya just learn as you go. Try not to be so anxious to figure it all out in your first week. Cripes, I'm here almost 14 years..... and I'm still learning. You just need to try it, see what happens and then try it again and again, til ya figure your way around. We're...
