Future of the Sign Industry

I have some very interesting idea of where the sign industry is going. With the Global marketplace, sign franchises growing, cities expanding, business cost skyrocketing, etc. I would like to hear some veteran sign industry people, preferrably SIGN COMPANY OWNERS, what they think is going to happen for the Sign Industry and Sign Companies, in general, in the next 3, 5, 7 years? Expansion, Contraction, Teaming up, Brokering, Wholesaling, etc. If you are a vendor and have been in the SIGN INDU

Long Beach Trade Show

Here I am, sitting deeply lost in thought as I try to come up with a way to spread the word. No fair, that Illy has dominated the online community with forums of bragging print masters and sign-making hippies. Not that I hate them. I do appreciate good word when they back up what they believe in. I am in deep involvement with a software of my own. I had walked around the crowded convention center last week, observing the seemingly all-too-similar large format printers as I crave to take one of

Los Angeles Football Stadium

I've been following this since last year. It seems like City of Industry has approved the build out of the stadium in their back yard. This will definitely bring a lot of business to the area. http://www.losangelesfootballstadium.com/ Anybody else know more about this? Tom

I Am Calling You - Are You Ready For Me?

Something I am passionate about is the care “customer service” representatives give to their customers – I don’t want to regurgitate the same old stuff I’ve read 1000 times. I have no desire to be redundant and I know that anyone who has ever worked in customer service and written a blog has at one time or another stated the obvious. Maybe though, in this time when people are doing all they can to hang on to the jobs they have or to impress a prospective employer, it is time to write one more b

I dont think this is right

I just found out that the company that is handling the Wamu/Chase conversion for California (NW Signs out of New Jersey) is flying out their own installers. They are not licensed to do any work in California and I feel that they are taking work away from us installers that do hold a license. They had us do the surveys and now sending out their installers from New Jersey to do the work. Is this right? I want to know how other installers think about this

Cheaper imports, when they do not make sense?

As cheaper imports continue to present a major and growing threat to US industries, there are applications where these imports could end up costing many folds more than their US made counterparts. This is so true for electronic sign controllers. One of our customers, we will call him XYZ signs, has been seduced by the lower cost offered by an importer for DMX512 dimmer modules. He needed 35 of those in a sign with PC controlled animation. The difference in price between our modules and the i

The Chelsea Property Group wants your services & products for free

I need to be in contact with someone at The Chelsea Property Group and Simon Mall regarding the treatment of my company and many others regarding the Jersey Shore Outlets. We are one of the companies who made this project happen, yet we can’t seem to get paid. We completed our portion of work 11/12/08 working around the clock to make sure the outlets opened on time. We are still owed almost $27,000 since that time. There are approximately eight other sign vendors that I know of in the same posit

what do you expect

We are always telling our customers that signs bring business. Apperance brings customers, Right ? Why do so many sign companies drive and show up to the job in rolling junk ? I have been in the sign business for myself for over 25 years and take great pride in it. I started out very simple, a van with chrome wheels and lettering. Very clean and professional looking. Today I operate 12 cranes and bucket trucks. Each truck is bought new and then we add lots of chrome, polished diamond plate

Where Everybody Starts?

Have you ever wondered how everybody gets there start? How do we become "sign geeks"? I can atribute my success in the industry to a couple of distent memories and still remember it clearly like it was just yesterday. Having the privlage to spend 3 years in Asia, primarily Japan, I can remember standing in the streets of Shinjuku and in aww as I was surrounded by miles and miles of multi colored neon, illuminated sidewalk rotating signs written in Kanji, and some of the most impressive LED Video

Dryer And Take Up System's Advantage

Large format inkjet printers will always print in a lower speed for some reasons. Some of them with a dryer or take up system. Some own both of these two parts. But some did not own either of them. A dryer can make the products dry quickly. Then you can save the time by waiting the products bo be dry. Take up system will take up the products which have been printed itself. Then you did not need to ask your worker waiting beside the machine when it printing. And you needn't to worry about
