Fridge Wraps, Marines Motto and More in June’s Inbox

Survey Suggestion:
Winning Joy

• It’s going to be tough to top the April issue — I’m still riding the high of being selected this year! (see ST, April 2025, page 30) — Torey Rouillon, National Branding, Troy, MI

Questions for After

• “Selling a Sign Company” (see ST, April 2025, page 32) is interesting. Most sign companies are held together by the owner. That is the company and if he is not there, everything starts to slow down. How do we sell a successful company and walk away before the company is no longer worth the money? — Paul Boegemann, Paul Signs Inc., Brooklyn, NY
• What are retired sign people doing to supplement their income after 40-plus years in the business? — Perry Yaremchul, City of Kelowna, Kelowna, BC, Canada

Chilled Vinyl

• We have wrapped several fridges of all sizes — mostly smaller, which is kinda neat for a feature. — Louise Fischer, Trimline Signs & Graphics, Rocky Mountain House, AB, Canada

Shop Suggestion

• “Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast” [a US Marines motto]. Take the time to get your project done the first time, even if it takes 25% more time. That’s more efficient than doing anything twice and spending twice as much on materials. — Dave Hostios, Trav-Ad Signs, Huntsville, AL
