On one hand I think it is.....on the other I'm not so sure. Right now I pull a trailer that is all lettered up. But 2 things are happening in the near future.
#1-We are moving soon to a new house where it is not allowed to park commercial vehicles in your driveway at night. I can pull it into the garage but I don't want to do that because I got other things I want to use the space in the garage for.
#2- I am buying a new van and getting rid of the trailer. Pulling it around is do-able but not as handy as I want among other reasons as to why I'm gettting rid of it. So I'm thinking about NOT lettering my new van.
I'm a one man band and not looking to get bigger beyond what I can handle myself. I've been in the busines since 1994 and have had the multi-van operation going and for the last 3 years working by myself. In all those years I've gotten a jobs here and there because of them seeing my van but certainly not many jobs. I actually think it's more an important when you pull up to a job and the lady of the house looks out see the work van confirming I'm safe and legit to let into the house. But I can smile and use my charm to calm any nerves.
With my situation perhaps van signage isnt that critical. What say you guys find about van signage? Do you get alot of jobs off your van signage?
