  • per metre VS per letter

    Posted by Gary Davis on 11 April 2005 at 11:15

    Hi,

    Just wondered how others price vehicle graphics

    Per linear metre
    or
    Per letter

    pricing per metre at the moment but unsure if i should price it with all the graphics rearranged to fit a 610 width or per metre as they will be applied?

    if that makes sense…….. 🙄

    thought per letter may be easier, but unsure of how to price the different heights.

    always per letter, if at the end of the quote you think its a bt high yourself, show the customer and offer him a discount… he then thinks hes getting a good deal.

    I always quote per metre as in the layout, exeptions are when there is a lot of small text then i add extra. this way it covers graphics and shapes etc, and not just letters

    I always quote by the metre. You get to know how much material you’re going to use. It swing & roundabouts really !

    I find its simpler. However I would add a bit if the lettering is tiny due to the weed time and cursing involved ! 😮
