  1. What is the best (cost effective) way to advertise a sign shop?
  2. I have been approached by a company to survey the condition of some exterior signs for them. I would have to provide pictures of the signs, complete their checklist, and provide measurements of the signs and buildings. This would be detail report on the conditions of the signs, mostly light boxes. I am wondering what I should charge for this type of service.
  3. Yes it is per store. Now she wants me to quote on the other ones out of town as well. 10 in total.
  4. I have just talked to the company and told them that we charge time and expenses(milage).They wanted a set price. I told her it would be about 4 hour of our time per store and that I could have a set price of $250. She agreed right away and is sending the purchase orders.
  5. Thank you for your input Greenie

  12. This is a sticky subject. I also feel I own what I design. I read in a trade mag. that if you have charged for the design time the customer owns the design, unless specified in writing and signed by customer. Around here it is next to impossible to charge for all of your design time, so you are usually only getting half of what it is worth. So who does it really belong to?

  14. They look great!! Don't forget to round the corners on the magnets.
  15. Yeah GOT PRINT!!!! They have excellent quality, my only sugestion is read the fine print on production, and delivery time. It take awhileeeee!!!
  16. Went to small claims cour today, and won!!! Getting $3000 On Monday for signs I put out a year ago! Yeah
  17. I received the certified cheque today and cashed it.
  18. Sad it has to go down like that sometimes. I once took my vinyl back off of a storefront window. That one was a rental charge lol.
  19. Customer ordered a 4 x4 metal sign and a set of magnetic letters, I dropped it off picked up a check for $1300, he ordered another 1, I delivered it in two days, then the games began. He wouldn't answer my calls, ect. Checked the business account, his check for half down bounced. We went and repoed the signs. Submitted it to my court agent. It went to trial, he didn't show, I won. But it don't end there. Customer said he didn't know the date, so then it went to mediation yesterday. End result he is to pay me with certified cheque on Monday, then he gets his signs. If he breaks the contract made through the courts, we can automatically collect with a balif. It is a liquor store so I don't think it would be hard for the balif to collect the money or product. I like budweiser!!!
