Getting my van signed, and thought at least on the back door to have a before and after pic set up. Anyone used this? Or do you think firm name, tel number and website are enough? Looking at some prices over here in ze Fatherland, it may be worth travelling to UK to get it done :o
-
Are you thinking of a wrap or a half wrap?
Over here a wrap will cost between £2,000 - £3,500 depending on the size of the van.
Probably best to keep it simple. Looks more professional IMO. There's a company in my area that have a really over the top van here it is http://www.irishfranchisemagazine.net/page/cleaning-doctor/you-must-investigate-this-franchise-opportunity.php

(not the exact van but same franchise and design) I don't particularly like a van like that.

William Little is a pretty smart marketer so he could well have tested a few layouts and found that this one worked. You never know.

Seems a bit crowded like that. OTT.
-
Don't fast track guys go for the crowded van signage look?
I'm sure its a good selling point but just looks a bit naff IMO.
I got my van signed last January after 4 years of no signage. Got two very small jobs from it directly. I've had no less than 10+ people stop me in the street to ask for a business card and ask info but non of those have called me.
Carpet cleaning is not really an impulse buy.

why wouldnt you sign your van??
gary
-
will look like a travlers van
hubbys from this kind of back ground and when we go and see the family on camp, all you see is new transits with befoure and after pics of drives and new pvc so with this in mind I am out

Germany doesn't do travellers .

Worth taking a look at www.bossdog.co.uk who has done a number of vans for carpet cleaners on here, including Gary Bristow & myself ............ definitely less than £2-3.5k :o
-
Just to add that Goron Knight has had all 3 of his done, one at a time, by Luca at Bossdog .......... he reckons the drives up from Cornwall to Surrey, saved him a small fortune on local prices. ;)

I dont like the look of the 'crowded' signage either. Much prefer something that looks good.
However.... when you think about actually getting work I'm pretty sure you get more work from something that is essentially a mobile billboard stuffed with long copy. On the other hand you may want to not bother at all so you can eat your pasty in peace.
