As an industry, most of us join the sign making business because we love to make &#8216;stuff&#8221; clearly a right-hand brain activity rarely does the left-hand brain strengths kick in as to &#8216;managing stuff&#8217; Therefore the natural skills sign makers display tends to grow their business. Therein lie the issue &#8211; only a handful of sign makers &#8211; 3- 5% naturally have those people skills to build a fun creative team to fulfil everyone&#8217;s needs to enjoy the work we do!<\/p>\n<p>Many sign makers struggle with simple to learn basics of &#8221; working with creatives&#8221; John has employed literally hundreds of creative people over 45 years in the Australian Sign Game as a life member of the Australian Sign and Graphic Association he is always happy to share with his Anzac mates!

Maybe even stopping to smell the roses or at least the solvents you are using.<\/p>\n<p>The timeline in our industry is accelerating at a breath-taking rate. Looking at signwriting versus digital only. In around 4 decades a typical 3 square metres of sign output (2440&#215;1220) has changed from:<br \/>\na. Mid 1980\u2019s around 5 \u2013 10 hours to create a hand-rendered high-quality sign including some form of pictorial.<br \/>\nb. 1990s conveyed outputs to less than one hour based on average machine outputs of only 6 square metres per hour.<br \/>\nc. Early 2000\u2019s, output was averaging 35 square metres per hour<br \/>\nd. By 2010 outputs again accelerated and depending on investments, 60\u2013120 square metres per hour<br \/>\ne. 2020: outputs are anywhere approaching 300 square metres per hour and beyond<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s next Sherlock? Let\u2019s chat about \u2013 have you adjust or tweak the other areas of your business to match? Like \u2013 Business systems, software, process flow, marketing, social media and a million areas YOU need to embrace \u2013 It\u2019s NOT just making stuff it is also about managing stuff!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch the webinar below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Embracing the process \u2013 technology and opportunities\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wRCmRTo71Ak?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Embracing The Process Resources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nzsda.org.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Embracing_Technology-NZSD-\u2013-worksheet-to-review-and-improve-your-business.docx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Embracing Technology<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nzsda.org.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Trends-in-Prod-Market-Future-Issue-4-Nov15.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trends in Prod Market Future<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nzsda.org.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Disruptive-technology-VI-MAG-MAY_JUN17_web.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Disruptive Technology<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>3) Building Value.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>If that&#8217;s not what its all about \u2013 lock me out of the room! One of my favourites! I\u2019m putting forward the simple concept your business is in the top 3 financial assets you own. Consider\u2026 the signmaker or printer who works diligently for decades. Then decides time has come to move on, typically tries to sell their potentially largest asset and life\u2019s work and not a single taker? Here is a little secret \u2013 typically the vendor doesn\u2019t know the game. Only around 25% of businesses listed are sold!<\/p>\n<p>Why? Many reasons, however they have confused money, turnover and their ego with the reality of how buyers and their accountant rate the business. In the words of Warren Buffet \u2013 price is what you pay, value is what you get. The business must be prepared for sale.<\/p>\n<p>A strange but comparable phenomena is \u201csignmakers\u201d fill Facebook criticising all and sundry about inexperience punters having a go and making a sign! Yet, when they sell their business they chose the self-selling option without enlisting an expert! Strange ay!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch the webinar below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Building Value @ 11 30am Thursday 17th September\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XV8OLmkmyUI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past 6 weeks the NZSDA teamed up with NZSDA Premier Sponsors, Computaleta to bring you signage industry specific presentations by John Hadfield, an industry expert from Controlzone Business Consultants.
