Hey guys and gals,
I could use a little direction and I'm sure that I'm not providing enough information but I'll try my best.
I have a customer that wants 142 4" x 8" signs made on Signabond substrate. I can get about 144 out of one sheet if I'm careful cutting (I use a table saw). I'll probably quote it with two sheets of Signabond just to make sure I have plenty. Then customer is wanting reflective numbers and arrows. I'm using Orafol 5300.
I'd also be rounding the corners and punching a hole in the top and bottom.
Here is my question. I know that everyone has a labor fee and everyones is different but what do you think you would charge for something like this?
I'm thinking between $6.98 and $7.46 per sign. I don't have a large 4 foot cutter where I can just cut the letters and apply the whole thing to a sheet of Signabond so I have to do it in sections and l might even decide to lay the letters after cutting all the materials as well so I'm thinking there is going to be a few hours of labor in that area alone.
I'd like to know if I'm out of the ballpark or not. I know this question is subjective but any thoughts would be appreciated.
