I'm working on an estimate for 48 decals for a trucking company. They gave me a microsoft word file with the logo (everything in arial black font....very artistic if you know what I mean ) They didn't mention installation so I will quote without install.
The design has a shadow color but I will will give them a price on both black and one with the shadow. I think I would stand a better chance at getting the job if I gave him a choice. The measurments are 18" x 18" and my trial version of estimate is telling me around $12.00 a pop one color and $21.00 for 2 color.
Any thoughts? I would like to get the job, just want some input before I give it to him.
Thanks! Tony B

Tony, at first I was wondering about what kind of decals and almost wrote to ask. But when I ran it through my own copy of EstiMate I got those same figures within a penny.I assumed they are Vinyl letter decals, and they must be. I think the prices are right. You can also price the customer the installation, EstiMate has a provision for it, and you can line it up as an option. Then just double click on the price it gives you and you will immediately be told what your profit is. Adjust it to where you are still making enough money and forget the rest.Print it out and run with it, if you don't get it for that, let someone else work at midnight. I am so detailed with the "how to" because you have a trial of the software and are a little new with it. Good Luck!

Sorry about the double message, haven't a clue how to get rid of it, what I tried did not work.
