bmsgaffer 2,043 #29 Posted December 17, 2014 Make sure you keep it small, and ideally removable without paint damage (not post-it note removable but I dont want to see bare metal when it comes off) Whenever I buy a car with an obnoxious dealer decal on it, first thing I do is demand they remove it and polish it. Geno is a well known name on here, but to others I feel it might feel like just another chicago pizza joint, ya know? Red Shed: Wheel Horse Sales and Service Red Thoroughbred. Red Stallion ... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,928 #30 Posted December 17, 2014 Same thing I do too Brandon, remove the free advertising, bad enough what they charge for some of them... Terry is making the decals and his decals can be easily removed and reapplied. I'm also trying to make them "fit in" and look good so it not only looks good but helps the customer when they forget where it came from a far as warranty, parts or sales goes.

Ken B 3,116 #34 Posted December 18, 2014 I think Trouty has the right idea...Remember, whatever name you choose you'll be answering your phone calls to that name so you don't want it to sound goofy or confusing...IMO you need to keep it kinda simple.;All of your customers may not understand for example Red Horse sales and service.. I think you need to have the wording Wheel Horse tractors Sales and Service in your name, whether it be Geno's, G&S., Executive, Premier or whatever.. Believe it or not not everyone know's what a Wheel Horse is, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken B 3,116 #39 Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) This can be your advertizing jingle...Follow your nose to Geno's Know's, he always know's, for where ever there is a Wheel Horse for sale that is where Geno goes!

boovuc 1,090 #43 Posted December 19, 2014 I'll keep my day job. And I would suggest everyone else do the same. If your retired, I would suggest you get another job. You have way too much time on your hands! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno 1,928 #44 Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) I have been all day yesterday and today learning Corel X7 and trying to get this thing to suit me. You guys wouldn't believe how my head hurts. It's very close but not complete yet, there's still centering to do and I'm still playing with the B to L connection in Stable. We are also trying to do the phone # in a home made WH font to match the rest. These will be decals I put on things, ideas are appreciated.

KyBlue 652 #46 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Your first one looks good ... i know how hard you've been working on it! The Second one though, with the number off to the side like that, i think would drive me crazy...looks unbalanced. but that's just me. I know why it's where it is, just looks heavy on that end... my suggestion would be to add a horse head on right side, so you have two horse head's facing each other. Then it'll be balanced and only a bit longer ... Edited December 21, 2014 by KyBlue 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
