I don't like the font used on Signs & Designs. Just doesn't look quite right. I am sorry I can't offer an alternative.

Now I gotta weigh in here. These employees make these operations BILLIONS of dollars. That isn't a typo. McDonalds alone is one of the Worlds Largest Corporations. So, these workers deserve better pay. The whole mindset of Fast Food jobs require no skill is a myth. The same skill set that is...

You might want to shop paypal. They have some merchant account offerings through wells fargo that are setup so you can get decent rates on cards not present. Also, I have found that forcing people to pay via paypal is pretty good too. The rate is 3.9% + .30 but, I get my money pretty quickly...

Pat, you aren't supposed to give liquor or wine unless you know the person enjoys such adult beverages. If your unsure you should always default to something simpler like a Gift Basket etc.. That has always been the rule I operate by. I would never want to unknowingly give a bottle of scotch to...

The problem with all credit card processing companies is that business cards are considered non-qualifying. I don't know about the rest of you when I get paid with a credit card it's usually a business card from the business I am selling the sign to. Not a personal card from whoever is ordering...

For customers that are the top of the list. A nice bottle of something or a well thought out gift is appropriate.

I keep all my files in a setup like this C:/Artwork/Company Name/Signs/Finals C:/Artwork/Company Name/Signs/Proofs C:/Atwork/Company Name/Graphics/Finals C:/Atwork/Company Name/Graphics/Proofs C:/Atwork/Company Name/Print/Finals C:/Atwork/Company Name/Print/Proofs All job notes go into a read...

If your making less than 40k a year you need to get out NOW! I have 3 kids too. I was making over 40k a year with way less knowledge and skill in the industry than you have as a broker. I would believe with your skills, knowledge, and experience you should be able to easily make way more than...

Actually the business was quite profitable. Just not enough to support the standard of living I choose to have.

I aint been in a shoney's since 1997 are they even still around?

Had to come back and add this quote I found from Dan Antonelli. Fits this situation well, I believe.

You sir, prove my point exactly. You found a customer willing to pay your price. Therefore the job has the value you determined. That is proven out by the customer paying for it at that price. So, to say "I have no clue" while your very own situation proves what I said was correct. Is just you...

Calling someone a Fool is opinion not a fact. What is a crappy job to you, may be a decent job to someone else. Like I said before, this job could be done for for that price. A respected member on here who I don't get along with even backed that up. It's not maximizing your potential profit...

Here is some advice that has allowed me to find some of the best food everywhere I have gone in this country. Find the largest heaviest cop or deputy you can around 6pm. Then ask him where the best place to eat is. I have never been steered wrong yet. I found this great barbeque place just...

what your competing against is a guy who has the equipment, the material, and the knowledge to do the job. He can make money on this job and you can't. Nothing to rant about. This guy may just be running a much more cost efficient operation than you. Maybe he owns his equipment out right and...

No I am saying the horrible looking logo has been improved from what I originally saw. The woman isn't so bad just that weird arm thing going on.

So, you claim to have drawn this from scratch yet another party in another state ended up with an identical panel. Humm, I think I know where my worm went.

I went back and looked at the original image I commented on and the newer version with more detail added and some changes made. The second version is much better. I don't understand how that occurs. I don't have a degree or years of experience to draw from to explain it. I just know the first I...

Yes, I usually am in awe of Joe's work. I sit mesmerized 99% of the time at his obvious skill. This one just causes a negative reaction with me. I don't know how to explain it. I can't offer advice on how to fix it. I am not skilled or talented enough to offer that up. I am sorry if I hurt...
