Maybe you’ve read how fleet graphics can generate 30,000 impressions per day, or perhaps it’s that fleet graphics offer nearly 50 times the value of TV advertising. The undeniable effectiveness of vehicle graphics has made them one of the most sought-after signs today.
From food truck owners to local florists and even law firms are looking to install graphics on their vehicles. That said, getting graphics that look great and generate leads for the business isn’t the work of a moment. You need to work with a fleet graphics company that can guide you through the process.
In this article, we’ll look at what you should look for in a fleet graphics company.
1. Full-Service Body and Window Graphics Company
It may sound as simple as pasting stickers on the vehicle, but installing vinyl graphics is an intricate process. The graphic needs to be designed, cut, your vehicle prepared, and the wrap installed expertly. In short, many small steps go into wrapping, and you need a partner who will take care of everything.
Tip number one, therefore, is working with a full-service company that will handle everything in-house. It’ll save you a lot of hassle coordinating vendors and minimize downtime for your vehicles.
2. Do Your Due Diligence
There are dozens of wrapping companies in Chicago, but don’t expect the same quality wraps or service at every one of them. Things like attention to detail, pricing, and experience vary tremendously between wrapping companies. You have to do your due diligence and check things like:
- Do you have designers in-house?
- What companies do you source your materials from?
- Can you show a portfolio of successful projects?
- Have you designed wraps for businesses in my industry?
These questions will help determine if the company you are considering is a right fit for your business. For instance, we make it a point to show potential customers our past projects; it makes it much easier to visualize the kind of work we do and if our work matches your vision.
3. Transparent Pricing and Deals on Fleet Wraps
As we mentioned before, installing wraps involves many little steps, so you need to be clear about pricing at the outset. ‘Unexpected’ charges–such as for detailing the vehicle or design work–can inflate the invoice quickly.
Don’t be shy about asking for an accurate, all-inclusive estimate from the company.
4. Positive References from Previous Fleet Graphics Customers
References from past customers are a great way to evaluate the kind of service and quality you can expect. Experienced vehicle graphics companies should be able to provide several without issue, so definitely ask for references.
