Of just the logo, and we can make our own signs.

The only companies that I can find that will make these signs in the quantities we're going to need charge too much. Does anyone know of any little sign companies?

Sign a Rama

Ask for Mark and mention my name. He is in my Chamger of Commerce referal group. He does these on plastic waferboard and is very reasonable, especially when done in quanity.

Hope this helps;

Nick,

I sent you an email.
Let me work on it.

I like the brighter colors but it would be better to have all the Move in Certified stuff on our own websites and put our web addresses at the bottom of the sign. If we pay for the sign and put it up at property we inspect we need to direct the traffic our way.

Needs a darker solid background to make it really pop.

[Jeffrey R. Pope]

This home has been pre-inspected and the seller confirms that there are no major systems in need of immediate repair or replacement and no known safety hazards

This could be much more effective if revised a bit for use in CA, and perhaps some other states with strict disclosure laws. Maybe we'll discuss this further at our meeting next week. . .

The generic signs might first be used by many sellers and realtors... who then
find the inspectors through NACHI. So it might be hard for Nick to make
signs with each members web site URL on it.

Or, as I previously stated, the logo can be downloaded to individuals and they can print up their own signs with their own URLs.

That would be one way for a member to be the one to generate more business from each inspection for himself. The problem with the Move In Certified URL is that people that see a sign where you did the inspection can easily go the the site and may very well chose any inspector listed in your area.

It is good to use that URL in materials or emails that go to realtors to help drive business to any areas but the use of signs would be best left to the inspector who does the inspection.

If Nick wants to make up a quantity that only have a space for an URL and phone number, it would be a heck of a lot cheaper for inspectors to have sticker printed for the bottom. Or he could make the signs short so we could just attach a small sign to the bottom with our own info.

Agreed. If it comes from NACHI, it should have the URL of the referral site.
