kburk 2 Posted January 9, 2010 I would phone the other sign shops or get a Friend to phone give the basic detail of the job and ask the ball park price on it. I live in Vancouver B.C. lots of competition around here but I got allot of my pricing nailed down by doing that. But just remember its just a ball park price. In the end you will have to come up with your own pricing that works for you, and your area. If you do a good job, nice work, reasonable timeline and pricing. Consumers will come back. I also use some of my small off cuts to give the kids stickers Lots of the big kids come back for them to Cheap easy promo. Oh My pricing would be $150 installed with 651 would go up if it was more that two colors Hope that helps. Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the customer is giving you money because he feels like he is ripping you off, you are WAAAY underpricing yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
