    over the years i have learned to listen the customers! Even when they are not right… 🙂 talk to them, try them to understand their mistakes, if you can, and then do your thing with their improvement. Every project must be like a "soul mate" for each customer! Talk with them for the shapes, talk with them for the fonts, explain them, convinced them its the best solution! In most of the cases this will bring you back other happy customers! And more money of course :smiles: ! When i was involved with the business, i had to ask so many questions, and the tip top i got was you will see 😆 !!! How we gonna do this or that ??? Relax you will see :smiles: Its a great job guys! Doing so many unique projects … Smiles of a happy customers! You can always see the results of your job in the end! i miss the job…i think i was really good in making 3D shapes and letters … just to twist them, to see their lines a good, check the angles 🙂 you all know what i mean…so life goes on, have a nice day everyone!!!

    I think this video is a great little introduction to how graphic designers think and go about creating logos, designs etc.
    By that I do not mean just newbies to the trade, but anyone. There is always something we can take from seeing how others work, think and execute their daily tasks. Worth a watch armed with your Cuppa tea! :smiles:

    :thumbsup: It was real pleasure to watch this video, and the easiness in work of that man! I am doing the same with customs projects, always use a pencil or something to scratch the base lines. And Lynda is great software…

    Just thinking if you print this on nechen vinyl, they had that type with very dark back. So when you cutted won’t be so visible, but I guess it’s too late now… What is the surface for this print?

    I give some phone numbers to people I know (el.engineer, architects …) And simply explaining to customer that there’s a procedure he must follow… Our job is to do advertise, and that’s we do best! A tax or fee, I will lose money if half day I am preparing docs … That’s my opinion

    Why don’t you try with some low series of 3M (50 polymeric or something ), for the roofs or other simple parts, and try to"feel" the difference…I can assure you that even budget vinyls can do great jobs too!
