Title: advertising boards
Post by: nathankaye on March 23, 2017, 09:07:03 pm
Just received my new boards to out down when im working. I used to just rely upon my van signs but decided to give this angle a try. Anyone else had boards made up and what do u reckon?? Worth it or not

I ain't even got the van signed up - I fill every week. How you going to display the signs ? get them put into  road sign frames

if its mounted on a plastic A Frame you'll need some sandbags on it cos the wind will knock it over as soon as it goes up

Yep i did think that when i saw the stand. Its semi ok if they have a grass lawn or near them as it can be staked. The board itself is supported from behind but i would need to tape it really to keep it anchored to the support pins.
The problem is the stand doesnt take into account if no soft ground is present. But i could propit against a cone that i use to section areas off.

Most people now have cameras on thier phones

Put on it 'take a photo of this sign and call us today' or if you want to be gimmicky....'take a photo of this sign and we'll give you a 15% discount on your cleaning'

Then they will have your number on thier phone :)

Claim Claim

Really?? You think they would have a claim? I'm sat outside a coffee shop right now...... I can see 3 signs, 2 waste bins, 4 bikes,  a dog,  7 tables & 14 chairs,  a unicorn & a disabled scooter all of these things  are placed across the pavement impeding people walking by. I doubt Very much any one could have a successful claim against an advertising board

I would think that any of the above is / was not authorised by the local ( health & safety gone ott ) authority or in the dog case ( no licence ) then someone will at some point or other attempt to claim

It's the society we now live in

The ones I've  seen about on domestic driveways are  just on the floor stood leaning against something inside the driveway or leaning against a garage door, garden wall etc. Well that what it looks like to me anyway. I suppose you could cable tie it to something so a gust of wind don't blow it away.

I personally would not place a sign on a public footpath outside of a house.
