    If you have just joined as a UKSG Gold member, (so Austin Powers :lol1: ) I think you need to contact Rob through the contact button & request an application form for Paperco/Europoint, fill it in, send it back to him then it gets forwarded to Paperco for credit checks, if all is ok then you have an account set up with Europoint/paperco to buy at a discounted rate.

    Carrie 😀
    saying that though, Rob may automatically send one out?? Oh and it does not happen overnight, you have to allow a bit of time for it to be set up, just as you do when opening an account with any other supplier 😀

    hi widget, werv yer bin lad?
    not seen you on here for a while.
    Advertising takes time to perculate through. To get a result quickly, you could try this, just a suggestion nothing guaranteed, Sponsor a pub crawl for your local charity, invite every man and his dog, fancy dress obligatory, get your local radio/rag involved, Costs a bit in freebies, but your charity gains your name gets around and everyone has a good time.

    Absolutely stowed out all my guys going on holiday over xmas and new year and apart from tons of customers work I have my two A board trailers (now they work well and are very cost effective) 20ft by 5ft sign for container in car park to print and apply (that’ll catch their eye four front signs to redesign and fit and new neon signs for front of builidng to fit.

    If you are in signs make signs that are noticed make yourself different from others. Never found newspaper advertising works.

    If you are really quiet go round your town and pick out the worst five signs, design something better work out a cost , make an appointment and goin and show the guy what you can do
