vehicle signage

[jamesw]

Hi Guys and Girls

I am currently looking into my van being sign written and i am stuck as to what to do! I know that this will be the best and most cost effective way of marketing and don't want to spend twice or get it wrong! I am a fan of KISS (keep it simple stupid) but am wondering weather to go for the big vehicle wrap signage for the old bull baffles brains! feel like harry hill FIGHT:laugh1:

 

Would like to get the forums opinions to see if it can sway me one way or the other? At the moment i don't know. so any ideas, Photos or do's or don'ts would be appreciated.

Cheers

James

A very large percentage of my work is from people who say "I saw your truck......"

Got to say i'm not a fan of the full wrap graphics stiyle

Looks a bit tacky IMO

 

My thoughts are keep it simple. Use that big chip truck as a mobile buisness card. Easy to read and remember.

Keep it simple and go for colours that stand out, eg white and dark blue with a few bullet points and contact numbers. If you have too much people get confused and it takes ages to read.

if you've got a white van go for black or green as these show up best. i'll try and put up the photos of my new van with its sign writing done if i can figure out how to do it. Also go for something that everyone remembers about your vehicle just in case it gets nicked like my old van. i had a tree on the bonnet which is what everyone remembered about it.

I just have Company name Phone numbers and e mail

I think it helps to get extra work if people see a name on the truck

I have a green l200. Want to put a back on like John Shulters mobile with extra signage on that. I was thinking originally black writing but i think it would get lost. Now thinking white?

gold looks good on a green background.
