We never use mdo unless absolutely necessary. We use the aluminum composite daily. If the customer wants a cheap sign we have them do what it takes. We give them the option to have a coro or banner made and they can mount it to their cheap plywood. We provide solutions, but our time is better spent making money providing signs for our good paying customer base and we can only go so far for the thrifty penny pinching shopper. Sometimes it's better, and I mean sometimes, to try and help them go and see that guy doing it out of his garage. He's better off and so are we. Now we have many times done the banner or coro option successfully. So many times, but keep in mind that our shop making $50 that hour only hurt us when we should be doing about $250. I understand that if we don't satisfy our customer, someone else will. But come on. If your not missing any meals, throw the dog a bone... I mean let the garage guy have this one.
