  1. Canva purchases Affinity

    As a true graphic designer and printer, Canva has wrecked the industry in small town America. People used to come to us for professional branding and graphics services but now EVERYONE is a graphic designer. It makes it even more difficult as a printer.

  4. Anyone printing Note Cards? What printer are you using?

    That is my main type of business. I do digital printing and only do signs as an extra in my business. I run a Ricoh Pro C5100 Series with a Fiery so the print quality is excellent, but the machine costs around 40K so that's not feasible for small batch printing like you are talking about. For...

  8. How to install large vinyl?

    Yes! The top one. But the pieces are pretty far apart. If I mask it all together it will be 12' wide and I know for a fact that I would get it all stuck together and make a huge mess. I guess I was just hoping it was acceptable to use some kind of liquid so I had the option of sliding it up or...

    It will have to be a couple of pieces because she wants other info on the window ends (3' away from center piece). I'm concerned about vertical centering with that. What ratio of soap/water/alcohol do you recommend?
  10. How to install large vinyl?

    We are a print shop but dabble a little in signs from time to time. I've been a member on here for a couple of years trying to learn from all of you experienced folks. So I'm sure this is a VERY newbie question but nevertheless I have to ask. We have been contracted to install cut vinyl on a...
  11. How do you hire?

    A living wage really depends on where you are living. The cost of living in rural Kentucky can't be compared with the cost of living in Louisville or Nashville or any other more urban area. You can buy a really nice house for $150,000 or you can rent a nice apartment for $700/mo. For the...
  12. Real Estate - Residential - not sign related

    A really nice 3 bedroom with at least 2500sq ft and a couple of acres would be around $300,000 around here. Another reason I love rural Kentucky. We are an hour from Louisville and 2 hours from Nashville so we are close enough to the big city if we need anything.

    My sister is a Realtor in Charlotte, NC and she said it is crazy there also. Nothing lasts more than a day or two and you have to be prepared to offer way over asking price. I live in rural Kentucky and everything is pretty normal here. There are houses for sale all over the place.

  19. grainy yard signs

    If the realtor's photo was less than 500k, more than likely it is the photo that is to blame. Especially if the realtor texted the photo or pulled it off FB.....we have this happen ALL the time and people don't understand resolution and it's importance. If you can print the photo out on a...
  20. Need Help In need of a sign. lol

    Yes, I took that very seriously and absolutely appreciate the advice. Now what I'm asking is what type of cutter would be good for starting out with cut vinyl. I will get a laminator for vinyl sheet prints that I outsource but would like to be able to cut my own vinyl in-house. Nothing too...
