Replacing my high mileage work van shortly with a nice pickup truck. Was considering putting logos on the doors and tailgate. Still in debate about it. Any input?
So you letter your truck for what? To look professional, yet you don't get calls from it. Hmmm. I'd rather be professional, not look it.I wouldn't expect 1 phone call from your logo'd work truck....the only call ive ever gotten from mine was from an overly aggressive driver I had to cut off because he wouldn't let me in
Agreed...lift kits, absurd exhausts, and insane rims are sure fire ways for me to pass up calling you. You're working, not going to a car show!professionals have their name on truck, commercial plates, no lift kits, aftermarket rims, or loud exhaust.
I am in a small market, I have at least 2 people a year call and say I seen your truck/trailer.. I think it's great advertising but more right place, right time kinda luck.Sabagley said:My partner and I lettered our work trailer when things slowed down. We are licensed as a general contractor and the trailer is lettered that way.
We can, and do build customs, or just frame, or just side......
The problem is that we prefer to work as a sub doing Millwork packages.
So when we are on the job site of a builder that prefers not to letter their trucks/trailers, there has been some confusion and questions. Even though it should be obvious what we are doing by that stage of the build.
I know it is a bit of a sore subject for at least one builder. Another one was hesitant also because of it.
I think that the trailer has been lettered for 3 years and has not brought in one call. Everything we do is by referrals.
Maybe in a larger market??
All of our vehicles and trailers have our logo on them. We do ask how people get our name, we have a couple a month say they have seen our trucks around. In my opinion it is inexpensive advertising.SectorSecurity said:I was just about to order all new lettering for my van, but now I don't know if I should, figured it would help with business as people see the van around town but that doesn't seem to be the case.
