Football boards

[Paul Humble]

Id price each board individually and itemise it on the quote.

I do all the boards round my local pitch and have done for the past few years . Basically i have a set price for them and sometimes its better for me than others but its always worth doing. Plus I can have my own board up free as i told them they are getting a discounted rate. this alone has got me loads of other jobs so was a nice wee perk . worth a try.

We also do advertising board for 3 local sporting clubs, I get alot of work off one club in particular to help them sell the boards we do a set price for the signs apart from any that need to be printed. We also insisted on the boards being 8’x2′ that way i can make two from one sheet. Been knocking them out a £125 each just using cut vinyl, as has been said you make more on some than others but it is good steady work

martin the guy selling the adds needs a fixed price to be able to sell and not going backwards and forwards to you for prices.
as mentioned set a price and take the rough with the dam right easy.

what do others use as the board.
i say if on the side of the pitch and a player may crash in to it or lots of bashing by a ball it should be alloy sheet. not plastic which will shatter or composite sheet which i think could open up. with a very thin sharp edge.

Hi Chris

I use composite and just round the corners, on some occasions depending on the position on the pitch I will mount on ply board. We replaced 6 signs at a local football club that had all shattered due to being made from plastic.

Hi Chris

Ive been making the sign boards 4 a few month now and all seem well. I have a set price. and as you said you take the good with the not so good but they still make me a profit! i use composite sheet as it has a good range of colours. Ive never heard of them opening up before! al keep a eye on them

Thank you

Martin
