Cubesmart - who makes thier signs?

[Rocco]

Hi all

 

Does anyone know who does the Cubesmart signs?  I have a bid request for a new location and they asked me to make the exterior channel letters.  That would be easy enough but I'm not the approved vendor.   i told the customer this and said we could at least provide the installation if we aren't allowed to make the signs.   It's possible that Cubesmart doesn't care who makes the signs but I doubt it.

 

Thanks!

We used to build CubeSmart Signs and Install them as a total package
Then They wanted everything broken down specifically to the dollar.

At this time. it s all priced based and its open sign season to everyone

Thanks Paul

 

I don't really expect to get this job becasue i'm probably too high.   i quoted it to the property owner but we'll see what happens.

Maybe you can get the installation part of it.  Again they are all about the bottom dollar and want to know your hourly rate. 
Then they decide what is being installed and how long it should take you to do it .

They were great customers and we did a lot of business with them,
Management changes and different ideas and values are now in place

Yes, that happens.   With these corporations, someone new gets in the purchasing department and they go with whoever is 10 cents cheaper.
