By Tiffany Gill


In recent years lettering has become a huge business concept all over the world. Today advertising is not limited to radio and television but due to increase in the level of creativity other channels are being used. One of the best businesses to setup in is custom truck lettering because it is profitable and also fun to do if one is very creative.

The type of method used in lettering trucks depends on the type one is driving. Some trucks will dry first with the wet method while other will do with the dry one. It is important to find a very creative and well trained professional to carry out the process. The most common type of method used in lettering is vinyl.

For good results ensure larger fonts are used when the process is being carried out. The colors used should be of higher contrast to the color of the truck to bring out the words properly and ensure that people can read the words clearly from a distance. The letters should be simple but attractive, using complicated fonts will prevent you from getting the message across.

If you want the work to be done on the windows consider using white vinyl. Lettering done on truck windows will show properly because of reflection. However medium fonts and very few words should be used to bring out the message you want other people to know about. For more attention use an outline effect when during lettering although it can be quiet costly as compared to other methods.

When using vinyl it very important for you to put into consideration the type of grade you want to use. If you want to advertise your product for a long period of time like a year or more buy high quality grade like cast as most of them only last for few months. Find out the different grades that are in the market before you do actual buying. Indoor or promotional vinyl should not be used in this kind of art.

Use reflective colors because they will enable people to see the advertisement during day and night time. A rich color tone is good as it will be dazzling at night. These products are quiet costly but your products or services will be promoted for 24 hours. Use other graphic designs to make it look more attractive.

The payment plan you provide to your customer should be flexible and competent. Set up a certain percentage at which you can provide your services and the remaining money can be paid after you have delivered all your services. Proper management of the business will ensure that all the set objectives are met and prosperity.

Do not just settle for anyone to carry out this kind of job. Instead look for someone who has knowledge on how calligraphy is done with good level of experience. Custom truck lettering can be done to you at very affordable prices if you take your time to find out more about the industry, the prices and companies or individuals who offer these services.
