Car Magnets Now Available on Merrill Site

In summary, the Merrill site now has car magnets available. They look really nice, but some people might not like magnets because they can be easily taken off. The instructions for using the magnets are somewhat of a pain.

Car Magnets are now available on the Merrill site under Other Business
 
Thanks for letting us know; they weren't there last week!
 
Thanks! :D They look really nice!:D Now I'm debating on whether to get them or not!;)
 
It certainly is better than the decals because they are temporary. Not that advertising PC is a bad thing!! :)
 
I personally am not a fan of magnets, here's why....my husband and I both used to work for Kinko's and we did a ton of car magnets and I can't tell you how many times we had people come in and have to re-order them because the wind blew them off of the car. If you have any curve to your door or wherever you might put them then it is more likely than not that the wind will take them off and you will have to replace them. Granted this is not saying that this will happen to everyone...more of just an FYI.
 
I personally am not a fan of magnets too. Someone in my cluster told me that it gives to much info. When driving home from one of her kitchen show's around 11:30pm, she was at a stop light and this man notice she was alone in her car seen her magnet that had her phone# address and started following her home. Thank God she noticed he was follow her, so she called the cops. I just like my window decal "The Pampered Chef". Just something to think about!;)
 
I'd NEVER put my address on my car. The one from Merrill doesn't include your address, just phone number and web address. Although your address does appear on the website. Plus, I use vonage so my phone number isn't published.

You home address is not on your website, so don't be afraid!

The Merrill magnets seem much smaller than what I have -- I got mine YEARS ago - I think from T&C?
 
  • #12
Did anyone else notice the instructions for using the magnets? It seems somewhat of a pain.

I really wish I could get some personalized window decals - at least website & e-mail.

You might get the Merrill window decals and then add your name, number and website below it. I think you have to go through an authorized dealer to get something with the logo printed on it.

I ordered the Merrill decals and am in the process of having a sign shop make decals with my name and info. They should be ready on Monday :)

I can post a pic when they're done so you can get an idea.

My business cards only have my email, website and cell phone number. I wrote my cell # on a PC window suction thing. I agree, only include what they need to reach you.

Anne - that's funny! Me Too! The only place I could put it would be the hood or the roof (I have a Vue) - and that wouldn't do much good!

Plus - before you advertise alot on your car - you might want to check w/ your insurance co. I know here in MI, if you advertise at all on your car, your rates go up....and insurance is already thru the roof here because we have mandatory "No-fault" insurance....just an FYI. I think just a bumper sticker or window decal is fine, but when you start putting phone #'s etc...on your car, it is then considered a business vehicle (here in MI that is).

BEAUTIFUL!!! How much was the total cost?
 
  • #21
$85 at a local sign shop. I do know the family that owns it, so I don't know if that was discounted or not.

They did it on both sides, of course.

Car decals
I really wish I could get some personalized window decals - at least website & e-mail.

I got a decal from edecals.com that is just my web address, and it is on my back window under my PC decal that I got from Merrill. The edecals one was only about $13, it got here in a week and they emailed me a proof to approve before they produced it. I was very pleased with their service and the decal was really easy to apply and instructions were included. It's the same material that business use on their glass doors, and they include a little squeegee thing that you can use to apply it.

I'm sorry to be a pain, but could you tell me what you ordered from them? I'm such a dummy, I'm afraid I'll order the wrong thing.

This is the page where I ordered from EDecals.com....

http://www.edecals.com/custom/side_window_decals.htm

I got one line, 2.5" x 18", Arial font (they have TONS of choices, but I wanted it simple), white color with clear background, no other options.

How much is it costing you to do that? (Have a local shop add your information).
