Jesse.karbowski 3 Posted April 20, 2017 Hey guys! I know this will vary depending on market and area etc. This is my 1st "big" sign project and I have no idea what to price it. It's on a 4'x8' piece of steel and it's 2 sides. I initially tried to cover the steel in vinyl to have a base color, that obviously didn't work well and I wasted a lot of vinyl but I don't want to charge the customer for the wasted time. I ended up painting the steel for the base coat. I'm using 4 colors of vinyl and I've had a few things to layer. It's pretty basic with just font and a tree in the center. Any help on pricing would really help out a lot! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted April 20, 2017 I would be at $210 for just single color decals applied onto two sided 4x8. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesse.karbowski 3 Posted April 20, 2017 Here is what it looks like. What would you be at with having to layer? I was at $260 and I thought I was giving him a deal. Was I that far off? Tyson.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cal 393 Posted April 20, 2017 1 hour ago, Jesse.karbowski said: No, it is the phone number but I took it out for privacy purposes I never quite understood this. Nothing meant to you Jesse, but the sign is a business sign for which he is paying you to include his phone number. You could be giving him some free advertising here... As a business number, he does want it out there in public - right? Cal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesse.karbowski 3 Posted April 20, 2017 Yea, I understand that. But without getting his permission, I didn't want to put it out there via the interwebs. Any advice on the pricing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
darcshadow 1,625 Posted April 20, 2017 Just a comment on the design, that tree looks kind of weird. Is that the look you wanted, or were you going for a yellow outline of the green tree? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesse.karbowski 3 Posted April 20, 2017 That's how he wanted it. Wasn't my initial design, it's what he liked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesse.karbowski 3 Posted April 20, 2017 I think I see what you're talking about. Not sure why the PDF looks like that, it is just a yellow outline shadow. Looks goofy in PDF. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
