Who would I contact in Canada to ask about a small screen printing setup for doing realestate signs? Are they worth while? In our area the realestate people get all there stuff from afar because we can't compete with screen printed pricing. Who do I talk to to learn about the different paints etc.

Thanks for all your help

Julie

Hi Julie,

We screenprint a fair amount of real estate signs. Even though I'm in the States, I'll be glad to help.

Warning: A well designed sign may cause fatigue due to increased business.

Julie.
Out here in Western Canada, most realty companies use a Vancouver company named 'Astrographics'. They make the realty signs and assorted 'toppers'in masses for very little money. Example: the large realty companies here pay about $2.50 for a
'topper' (5' x 30' approx) which they then sell to each of their realtors for about $8.00. A friend of mine looked into doing this, but found he couldn't compete with such low prices, having to warehouse the product, and have that huge outlay of cash to produce them, and make very little money once all was figured in.
Give this a lot of thought...do your homework.
Good Luck
Sue
