Jburns 239 Posted October 28, 2014 Are you asking about the car dealer decals? Thats what i was curious about- like runs of 50 or 100 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Go-C Graphics 856 Posted October 28, 2014 I'm really interested in pricing for the car decals they put on every car. I've got an in with a few dealerships and I'd like to throw them a price but I'm not sure on a good price. I'm guessing they must be getting them done cheap because they go through about 150-200 a month. Has anyone done these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do a test run of a hundred to see what your costs are and give them as a free sample with a price quote based on what it's worth to you. Like "hey I do these kinds of decals too in case you are needing any, my price is about....$XX per hundred." That huge order of shirts I posted a couple weeks ago all started with a free hooded sweatshirt and ended up about $7000 not to mention the several thousand in other other smaller purchases they have had me do over the last two years. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pshawny 410 Posted October 28, 2014 I make some 1.6"x22" chrome decals for a Ford dealership that they put on the back windows of new vehicles. They order about 100 a month and I charge them $2 each. They were paying $2.25 to another sign shop and that place wanted to raise it to $2.75. A friend of mine at the dealership got put in charge of getting quotes, gave me a call, and the rest is history. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've thought about that but I don't want to waste my time if they are paying something stupid low like $.25. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

express2100 154 Posted October 28, 2014 check sidsavage.com to get an idea what many of them pay. Pretty hard to compete with those prices. At least with cut vinyl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
