Driving by that shiny, one year old, Sign*A*Rama franchise yesterday I noticed a special sign pasted all over the storefront:

"For Lease"

Interior already cleaned out & everything.

Wow! That's the quickest sign shop in town!

All that means is the owner didn't know how to run a business, the same fate would fall upon the best signmaker on the planet.

I'm sad for the owner, but glad for the local sign trade.

I'm hoping it might be a signal that the "if it's not from a one day vinyl shop it can't be worthwhile" attitude that prevails in my town.

Glenn,
I know the feeling. This town is squirming alive with the same atittude. With folks bidding half of what the "real" price should be it's amazing they're allowed to be IN business, much less lasting a year at it.
I know this sounds kinda negative towards franchises and well..........it is. [Smile] The only reason I posted is the fact that this has happened more than once in the last year that "signahoodoo" has been in town.
