and sometimes a customer wants "their" artwork and you think about it for 30 seconds, burn them a cd with every file you've ever had for them, and politely send them on their way. As soon as they get out of sight you do the happy dance and smile the rest of the day hoping they've gone to the...
New redneck/biker/brawler/beer only served in cans kind of bar opening in town. They wanted a sign and artwork to match for t-shirts.
Short-term (and realistically probably long-term) the sign is going to be a digital print mounted on Di-Bond and cut to shape. This is not their main sign so...
I don't do a whole lot of full wraps, intentionally. This one I'm going to do, however, because I do a lot of work for these people and the "BEEF WAGON" kind of has sentimental value to me.
I'm looking at this thinking it will be pretty easy but I thought I'd ask if anybody saw anything...
Just curious if anyone had any luck with postcards.
I'm thinking of running a monthly sale on things I can get a good wholesale price on and still make a good margin on. The main idea is to let people know that we carry more than they've seen just in the shop so I'll do things like put...
FIRST....I know that's the equivalent of asking "How much is a sign?" but bear with me.
I'm planning on finally pulling the trigger on a printer in June, more than likely a 54" Valuejet but possibly the new Mimaki a local dealer is pushing. What I'm wondering is how long the 220 ml cartridges...
So...nobody could identify the font I posted last week so I just recreated the 8 letters I needed for the project I was working on. While doing that I started thinking about making fonts with Corel and Fontographer years ago. I made five fonts back then but never finished defining all of the...
I thought of this because we've been laughing about something that happened years ago. The customer it happened to was here this morning and every time we see her we laugh.
About five years ago a GORGEOUS young lady came in to order a sign. Gorgeous, perky, friendly...the kind of girl that...
I hate asking stuff like this but I'm running out of options. I have suppliers I typically use for stuff like this but they're all closed for the holidays. The four others I've tried to contact can't give me prices until next week on reflective. Here's what I need if anybody can do it...
It happens every year around this time, somebody starts stealing MDO real estate signs. I've always been convinced that hunters are stealing them to make shooting houses but that's nothing but speculation.
Sunday I had to run some stuff to my mom's house about an hour south of my house. I had...
Since you said this...
I've spent HOURS trying to figure that out and I'm not even a Star Wars fan. The only thing I can guess is because of the difficulties in lining up the mold halves. The trench was an easy work around for hiding the seam between the two halves.
So....why's it there...
Okay, I know it's petty but I'm still a little miffed about it. This is the first year ever that we haven't gotten a single card from any of our vendors, any of our wholesale accounts, or any of our customers.
Zero. None. Nada.
I know the economy is in the tank, and I know that business...
At least according to the giddy, half-drunk customer that just picked up a set of magnetic signs.
Seems he's "been to every other sign shop in the country and they all suck."
Apparently I'm the only person in the country who can knock out a set of one color, three line magnetic signs...
A local car lot I used to do some work for bought their own ebay plotter a year or so ago. It didn't really bother me, they mainly use it to cut windshield price decals, so it made sense for them to get their own.
Well last week they called about getting an 8' x 45' banner saying MEGA TENT...
I'm curious...I know of three digital printers locally that have been repossessed by the leasing companies and if there are three here there must be 10,000 across the country.
Where are they?
I know where to buy repossessed furniture, cars, homes, and just about anything else but I don't...
Theoretical question, don't in any way think this has anything to do with my two employees! I'm telling this from the perspective of the owner but IT'S NOT ME. This is really long, and it has to be, so if you've got something better to do you probably ought to go do that instead.
THE...
Okay, for a year now I've been okay with our invoicing. Things have gone from averaging 10 days until payment in February to around 21 days in July, all of which I was okay with.
In November the average time until payment crossed the 30 day threshold for the first time ever.
Here in December...
Phone isn't ringing and it's pouring down rain. I've got a big stack of work orders to do and none of them interests me at all.
I'm going home.
I think the rest of you should take the rest of the day off.
Except Mosh, don't need him out driving the combine drunk until after rush hour.
