Both sides,logos and back done,inc design and fitting £150 all in.
Sounds like a bargain to me,he will put a few designs together,then i chose which one i like.

[concept]

what size van? and how much wording etc?

if its transit size, with a decent bit of info, ie: logo, 2 x numbers, description, web addy, etc, then thats a decent price if they are running a few designs off for you too.

[Mike Halliday]

you will only sign write it once so do it right.

 if he will do all that for £150 then what will he do if you put another £100 on top or even double it.

ask him what he could do if you put some extra cash in, with a bit more incentive he might come up with something really special

 unless you are skint and can only afford £150

[M.Acorn]

This is the van



Good point,it`s for pretty much everything i wanted on there really,contact details ,web addy,my name,e mail addy,what i do,without going into too much detail,logo`s,might get one logo above the screen too

The conclusion I have come up with when it comes to van signage is that, unless its a really fancy, top notch job i.e. a wrap or expensive looking. Then its not worth getting done. It actually puts potenital customers off!

[Steve Chapman]

yeah its much better not to let them know what you do or they could pester you for a quote  :

[Carpet Dawg]

nah, they just wont call you at all cos of the crap sinage

Even worse! you might spark the potential customer to think, "yeah my carpets do need a wash. I'll check the yellowpages when i get back home" and there you have it, just given your competiors another job!  :

[Mike Osbourne]

When I had the Combo done it was about that I think, but a few years ago now.

Never forget wot he said when he'd done it.

What do you think? I said yeah looks good and he said Oh that's good cos I'm colour blind you know. :

[daz1977]

i have been quoted 50 for this both sides, nothing on front or back

[murky]

Mark,

That cant be your van, its not on axle stands and the bonnet is down.

at the end of the day you only generally do it the once. sometimes with a smaller van you are obviously limited to the amount of canvass you have to paint on. but it is worth spending a little more to make your vehiclke stand out as most vans you pass on the road have just the basic logo numbers whatever trade your in. simply does not trigger or stick out. worth not rushing into it think about what you want on it.

Some sort of picture which in dicates at a first glance what you do is always good.

eg parked in homebase the other day and from the other side of the car park someone could instantly notice what i do wrote my number down and called me that evening.

All i have is logo across sides and back plus prof carpet upholstery cleaning and a large piece of carpet with the wand drawing through.  simplzz.

on the back same but with services on the back and web address on all panels.

on trafic so little more room to play with.

wouldnt fall into the trap of making it look too busy as this just bores people. too the point instantly noticing what you do.

[clinton]

Right there richard.

I went the complete opposite this time with my new van and left all the domestic, commercial and all the other bumf out

[Jim_77]

I think it's best to remain inconspicuous when working

Rubbish - If your van wasn't signed in the first place the customer would never have known about you so how can they be put off?

There's no such thing as bad advertising.

[Matt Lindus]

Mark,

Keep the £150, leave it unsigned but keep it nice, clean and tidy, which it is.

[Buster Ingram]

Only problem having an unsign writen van is  IT CAN BE STOLEN very easilly. Driven away without a trace.

Unless you have a tracker fitted!

 

[M.Acorn]

Mark,

That cant be your van, its not on axle stands and the bonnet is down.

Quality ! lets hope it stays that way ! My logo is fairly self explanitory !

[Steve Barnett (Carpet Care Plus)]

Jim

What size van have you got, as that T/M looked huge in Alltec's showroom. ?


Steve

[Joe H]
