magnetic car signs

**LeeAnn** · 20-07-2009, 10:30 AM

Hi there, at my pre reg meeting my CCO mentioned one of her minders has a magnetic sign to go on the door of her car.

Has anyone used these? Does anyone know where to get them? I guess it would always be good for advertising

Vistaprint does them

Ive not got one but i got the car sticker for the rear window instead

I got one free from Vistaprint, i had no idea it would be so big (it's a small one!) I've yet to be brave enough to put it on my car!

Don't forget if you go with Vista Print to use the link from the Forum, it helps give a few pennies in commission to Forum Friends

There is a link in the 'Links to useful sites section" or one at the very bottom of the Forum in the bottom box

Or go from here: Vista Print

Hi,
I have two large ones for my doors and a small one for my boot! I have had comments from people who i dont even know, about how fab they look. I emailed a parent from childcare.co.uk who was infact a childminder doing some research and she complemented my magnets and said she often sees "The Playhouse bus" driving round! She even said that it looked very professional and invited me for a coffee and a chat!! Been too busy to go!

So you see, it gets your name out there! Although you should have seen the other childminders faces when i turned up with them!!

Tatjana how on earth did you get them free??

Pauline I will definitely use a link from here, thankyou

I can imagine! I only had to wear my logo polo shirts and I had the evils from c/m's where I used to live!

Do the magnets stay on the car okay and not damage the paintwork at all? Are they easy to remove?

order your 250 free business cards first!!! (p n p payable, always choose slow as it still comes within a week), then they start sending u emails with free this n that - i did the post cards next (free!) then soon got magnetic door signs, pens, post-its, tshirts, caps!!!!!
