Time to change my sign again...got a few ideas to share and would appreciate any creative input.

My favorite (and my customer's favorite) suggested by someone in the past was:

"Let us make your prints charming."


New thoughts:

"Hang your family...we'll help you"

"We're hooked on our customers walls"

"A picture is worth a thousand words"

"Frame now for Christmas"


As you can see...I need help!

I'll really be fine as soon as the swelling goes down. ;)

thanks.

My sign right now says,

SALE
Over
Stock
30% off
Selected
mouldings

I need to move some mouldings I've had a while.

When you take 30% off the moulding, it really is only about 15% off the entire job. Still a good deal for the customers but I still proffit. :D

I will leave it for about 2 weeks.

I love the graduation one.

I will use it the end of april. Thanks

You folks are the best and very creative. Thanks for the help. I'm changing my sign today!

PS I laughed out loud at "How great Thou Art"!

PPS Jay, I didn't get the Michigan joke, but I did only have one cup of yesterday's coffee this morning with my blueberry Pop Tart.
 
I saw a hand written sign in a dress shop while shoping with my wife. It said" Your husband called and said for you to buy anything you wanted".

I'm sure you could make something up similar to this about a frame job.

"We're only going to frame it once, do it right" or something like that.
 
We hit above the Bevel.
 
Dave, as part of the southern drawl here people commonly replace "ought" with "art".

I'll tell you what your art to do! Just doesn't sound like something I'd expect to hear there.
 
“ … Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.”

I don’t believe that most Christians would want to see a favorite hymn used in a commercial advertising. Should you use it, I think you run the risk of alienating a large segment of your target audience.

Just a thought …
 
I am that target audience. I have played lead guitar in two praise band for going on 4 years.

I think the opposite might happen.

My store is called "Great Angles". Its rarely called that. Customers and telemarketers alike commonly refer to my store as "Great Angels". I'll bet they are surprised to see when they come in here that I don't typically sell anything religious! Maybe they aren't refined enough to be insulted by my "marketing ploy".

As a matter of fact I have been looking for good religious art (which is very hard to find). When I do stock some that sounds like the perfect pitch to unveil the heavenly art.
 
Okay, Ron, I’ll leave my pew and go pout in the Bawl Room.
 
Nothin’, Jay.

We just have a difference of opinion, that’s all.

I think Ron didn’t want this to get nasty. It’s not.
 
Thats funny. There are worse battles than "I'm more religious than you!"

At least nobody has been called a biblical four legged animal yet!

We have those here in North Carolina. Sometimes they do get very heated. So far, it looks like your discussion is not turning into one of those.

I really like some of the one liners brought up in this thread. "How great thou art" or "Let us make your prints charming" may end up on my sandwich board this month.

Keep'em coming!
 
Along the same lines, I've often wondered where churches get their sayings. Around here they are putting cute little positive messages out front.

Like

God answers knee mail.

When you die, you leave all you have and take all that you are.

Turn or burn. (I hope this doesn't go on the bulletin).

Its like they have an endless source of these sayings. You see the same ones round town at different times also. They either copy off each other or have a similar source. I guess this is a close as framers can come.
 
Jay - when Billy Ray Cyrus was BIG I saw a church sign that said "God will fix your achy breaky heart." You're right - they got a million of 'em!
