MrWiggely Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Does anyone use these magnetic signs on your cars or trucks to advertise your business, and if you do or have, do they actually work to bring in business? Wigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs Hey Wigs, How else can you advertise that much for that cheap? Heck around here the people have custom paint jobs covering the whole car advertising their business. What kind of business is it that you are wanting to advertise?

MrWiggely Posted January 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs Driveway sealing, Pressure washing and Handyman service. I have signs I use at each place of work, but was thinking about the magnetic signs for my truck. Wigs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs There is a guy here in town that calls himself Mr. Handyman and he has those signs on the side of his truck. He is always busy......I don't know if the signs had anything to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrea Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs I bought my Dad some signs for his truck ( land surveying business) last year for his birthday. They come in handy when you're work truck is also your personal vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clayman Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs How does the paint hold up on the vehicle where those signs are? I've seen some cases where magnets have caused the body paint to lift and peel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another option is to go with the professional decals. They look great and can be removed with no harm done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AllArmyoutdoorsSD Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs Personally I would go with window decals, the paint on your truck fades naturaly with sun exposure, after awhile you will be able to see where the sign was.

puffy Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs I have used the window signs and they are really visible. Unless its just a work truck I'd go with removeable window or box edge signs. Best advertising for the money is by word of mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs magnetic signs work. they are the cheapest of the other options. but, you do have to rotate them from spot to spot to keep rust from forming.

GWSmith Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Re: Magnetic Signs The Swimming Pool Company that my Father and I ran in Florida used them with good success. We had them for years. We protected them by placing them on the front part of the bed, on each side, of the trucks...Just behind a plastic corner protector to shield them from the wind as we traveled the highways. After doing that we never lost one of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
