Hi Graeme – welcome 😀

quote Graeme Dingwall:

Hi Guys

away to start with sign making I love the idea of working for myself and getting away from the pressure of meeting targets etc etc

😀

you started the wrong game to get away from pressure, heartattacks are like birthdays in this game.
good luck anyway, and welcome

[David Rogers]

Hi Graeme.

So – tell us a bit about what you do / did. 🙂

Hmmm a bit more about me!!!

Well i am 31 live in Aberdeen

I Currently work for a big fire protection company (not going to say the name but they used to make locks and safes (?)
I am working as there workshop supervisor/Manager and have been there 7 years the last five as workshop supervisor/Manager.

I just feel it is time for a change. I don’t like the way the company is going, as it is now owned and run by americans.

Like the idea of starting a sign from scratch and ending up with a finished product that is different each time. I have dabbled in using vinyl in the past and have made some vinyl graphics for cars and things and more recently printed leaflets for one of my friends, but i want to expand on that a bit and get into the stuff that you can make some money at!!!

Anyway think i have prattled on enough now

Graeme

welcome to the boards Graeme, good to have you here mate.
please consider loading your profile picture or if any problems send me it to rob@uksignboards.com

newbie to the trade… good start would be to consider phills book… and nop, im not on commission. :lol1: but i think its best for any newbie to get as much good advoce as possible when getting into our game. far too many cowboys out there. dont get caught in the undercutting and low cost signage route. it will drag you down trying to make ends meet.

anyway, best of luck.

Hi Graeme, wouldn’t say it was without pressure, but a more interesting journey, certainly.

[Duncan Wilkie]
