Is the grill cleaned up? Is the boat water-ready? Has the patio been swept off/pressure washed? Yes, the Memorial Day weekend is coming up.  Time for family, fun and outdoor activities. Time for picnics, ballgames and fishing. Time to remember. Let us all take time to remember those who gave their all so we may enjoy all the freedom that Memorial Day represents. Because of them, we are able to have free assembly, freedom of speech and freedom to pursue happiness. More importantly, the freedom to worship as we wish. Let us all take time to lift up a prayer of Thanks for all those brave men and women, past and present, willing to sacrifice their all to preserve our rights and freedom. God bless them all.
  
Sincerely,
Bill & Jane Swanson

QR Codes

 QR Code

What is a QR Code and what do you do with it?  

QR, short for "quick response", is a matrix bar code in two dimensions which allows dedicated QR Code readers, such as a bar code reader or camera smart phones, to quickly decipher the code for instant information.  The QR Code is made up of black modules (or other colors) arranged in a square pattern on a white background.  The information gathered from the matrix bar code can be text, URL, or other data.

 

 

The QR Code was originally developed by Toyota subsidiary Denso Wave in order to have better control of automotive parts inventory.  It has since developed into a great form of advertising which allows anyone to instantly gain information about your company by taking them directly to your web page.

 

All you need to do to read the QR Code is download a reader application to your cell phone such as "ZXing" (most Android phones have an application already installed) or "QR Reader for iPhone" for the Apple iPhone. Just take a photo of the QR Code and your cell phone will immediately go to the company's web page.

 

Signs & More, Inc. will CREATE YOUR QR Code and include it in any banner, vehicle wrap or other signs you may need to get your company information immediately to your customer. How about on your front door for when customers visit and you are closed? 

 

 

 

COUPON: FREE QR Code with any sign containing one.

Sundial Plumbing

 

Mitzi Moore of Sundial Plumbing asked Signs & More to place vehicle graphics on some new service trucks she recently purchased. She was not satisfied with the results of the work of a previous sign company. Some of the graphics were separating from the vehicle surface and some were cracking, although they were only a couple of years old. And her image on the truck was not flesh-toned in the printing.

Mitzi decided to use a reflective vinyl on her logo in order to be seen better at night.  The results were impressive with the glow provided by the reflective nature of the vinyl.  

We brought in the vehicles in stages so Sundial could schedule around the vehicles out of service. Using our warehouse allowed us to work on the vehicles out of the weather (heat, rain, wind, etc.) and gave us a clean atmosphere in which to work.  

Signs & More's professional installers immediately went to work prepping the vehicles by giving them an alcohol cleaning and removing unwanted graphics and adhesive.  The graphics material, previously printed and laminated, was placed on the vehicle with tape to insure proper placement. The graphics were then adhered to the surface and smoothed out to remove any trapped air bubbles.

Signs & More is very proud of our work with Sundial Plumbing and Mitzi Moore. And we believe she is proud of her new vehicles and the image they portray.
