van advertising

[Chalker]

Mines done but I dont think I would waste my money again, can count on one hand the jobs that I know I have got off it, but I suppose on the other hand it gets your name out there

Completely agree, a tidy signwritten van is a great advert to your customers that yo will do a tidy job. But if that's one of the only benefits i will keep mine unwritten.
i suppose I'm lucky, in that most of my work comes from recommendation, so lettering not needed. ( until I get quiet)

also no one notices it at the pub or golf course!! 😳

Also, if you have your phone number written on your van, it doesn't look good when you have to give other road users a bit of "advice" 😉

Mine was about £150 a few years ago. I feel its worth doing as it looks professional and gets your name about in the locality. Mobile advertising in the area you work at minimal cost - a marketing mans dream.

You can get extra work from it as I had my escort van done when I was self employed. I got someone come up to me as I was fueling up and i eneded up doing kitchens and bathrooms in four new builds.
It all so lets your customers neighbours see you.

But if you have something nice looking they will think you are a clean worker as well if you look after things 😉

Couldn't agree more. My van is cleaned weekly inside & out and that is often commented on by customers

Sold my van tonight, waiting on delivery of new one next week hopefully.
Defo getting this van sign written as I ran my old one for 4 1/2yrs without & feel I missed out on advertising, especially in some of the more affluent areas out with my local area.

I had my old van sign written. One job I got from it was where I let a couple out of a junction whilst traffic was crawling along, so they took my name and number from my van and I got 2 bathrooms and a kitchen job out of it.
