Signwriting

[Peter]

Looking into getting the van sign written. Anybody find they get much more work as a result of it? Any do's and don'ts as regards setting out and what content to put on it?

Been playing about with a template and came up with something like below. Not a great deal of space on the wee Connect for much more.

Well worth having mate, I get a bit of work from mine, it does also help that my van is bright yellow! Hard to miss!

looks good how you have done the layout,i suppose that you have to look at it that where ever you go you are advertising your buisness ,i also have my van lettered but am not to sure it has fetched in the buisness you realy need to do a survey as to where all your jobs come from a bad point of it is when you are quiet and your van is sat in the drive your neihbours tend to gossip or they do here anyway lol ,go for it like i say it looks good

One downside of the signwriting would be that I cut someone up this morning (nothing too serious) and they were flashing the lights and beeping the horn at me. Didn't mind, but if the name was on the van I'd have been getting threatening phone calls all day. :lol:

Seen some vans with a bit too much going on so trying to find a balance.

 

[Ian]

Keep it short and sweet, you've got it spot on with regards to the info.

I have been beeped at quite a few times, don't worry about that.. ):

the van looks great wingn, couldnt fault it in any way. looks v professional and classy too ;0).
its a great advertising reference point so you will get your money back on the first decent job. you will be advertising your business for free in every road you work in and also when u are out and about..

I like it Wingn. May I make a suggestion? The squares you have to represent tiles, if you remove two of the tiles you can make it look like a number 1, just a thought.
