I know we talk about this so much but I don't want to be too high because I want to get more of their business. The area hospital called me Thursday and asked if I would do some signs they need by Monday. The wording and all would not be ready til Friday so it would require me to work the weekend. Here are thje signs:
(4) 18in X48in max 50 letters
(5) 6inX12in just an arrow
(4) 12inX12in 20 letters
(1) 18inX18in 94 letters
They were put on 4MM coroplast
I figured two different ways and I come up with $306. What would you charge?

That seems like a low price (approx. $22 per sign); also the fact that you must work the weekend should get you more money. If you had to pay an employee to work on Saturday you would be paying him time and a half. Watch your numbers carefully because it's hard to go up in price the next time and you may end up regretting the impulse to get the work without considering the costs.
