3 Tips for a Successful Vehicle Wrap

Vehicle wrap advertising is becoming increasingly popular due to the value compared to other forms of advertising. If you're thinking about auto advertising as a way to promote your business, we've got some tips for you! Keep reading to learn a few key things involved in a successful custom vehicle wrap in the Jefferson City, Columbia and/or Lake of the Ozarks areas.

1. Hire a Professional Vehicle Wrap Company. 


While it's technically possible to wrap a vehicle yourself, the outcome probably isn't going to be what you expected. You're likely to find bubbles in the vinyl and the wrap may not last as long as it should. There's a skill that goes into properly wrapping a vehicle, and therefore, it's best if you hire a professional installer, like the ones at ProDezigns. We can wrap just about anything from your average vehicle to boats, aircraft, motorcycles, large trucks and more. We are Missouri's best wrap shop - just ask our clients!

2. Put Effort Into the Design. 


Your vehicle wrap is a reflection of your business. Rather than quickly throwing an idea together, take some time to think about the goals you have with your vehicle wrap. What do you want to achieve by wrapping your vehicle? Make sure you include some text, such as contact info and a slogan, but keep in mind that less is more. People will only have a few seconds to view your vehicle wrap when driving down the road. You want to catch their attention and get your message across quickly. Our experienced designers will work with you from concept to completion to ensure you're satisfied with the message your wrap is portraying to your prospective customers.

3. Take Care of Your Wrap. 


Once the wrap is installed it's important that you take care of it, just as you would your car. The wrap will need to be washed regularly, preferably by hand, as to not damage the vinyl. By cleaning off debris, oil, gas, etc. from your Lake of the Ozarks vehicle wrap, you'll be able to increase the life of the wrap. You should also consider storing it out of the sun so there's less chance of the color fading over time. If your wrap does happen to become damaged, often times we can replace just that panel instead of having to re-wrap the entire vehicle.

5 Common Misconceptions About Vehicle Wraps

While vehicle wraps aren't a new concept, there are still a lot of misconceptions about them floating around. Keep reading to learn about some of the most common misconceptions that people believe. ProDezigns is here to set the record straight with the truth of the matter.

1. Custom Vehicle Wraps are Too Expensive. 


While the upfront cost may seem like a large expense, your vehicle wrap will last for 5+ years if properly maintained. Spread the cost out over those years and consider the number of impressions you can get from auto advertising, and a custom vehicle wrap from ProDezigns is hands down the best bang for your buck when it comes to marketing. In addition, we offer financing to help you pay for your vehicle wrap in manageable monthly payments.

2. Vinyl Graphics Damage the Vehicle's Paint. 


One of the most common misconceptions about vehicle graphics is that the vinyl application damages the factory paint job on your vehicle. However, just the opposite is true. If your paint is in good condition to begin with, the vinyl covering actually protects the paint from scratches and fading. When you're ready to remove your vehicle graphics, they can be removed just as they were applied, revealing a vehicle that looks as good as new!

3. A Vehicle Wrap is Difficult to Maintain. 


Maintaining your Lake of the Ozarks vehicle wrap is honestly not much different than maintaining your vehicle itself. You'll want to clean the vehicle wrap regularly to prevent damage from debris, gas, oil, etc. When cleaning your wrapped vehicle, you'll want to make sure to wash it by hand and never take it through an automatic car wash, as the brushes can damage the vinyl. You'll also want to try to park the wrapped vehicle in shaded areas to avoid too much sunlight which could possibly lead to fading.

4. You Can't Put Vehicle Graphics on Windows. 


While you can't put vinyl vehicle graphics on the windshield, you can wrap the rear side windows and the rear windshield. There's a perforated vinyl with tiny holes that allows you to look out from inside the vehicle just as if there were no window coverings. Those looking at your windows from the outside would see a completed graphic, advertising your business.

5. Vehicle Wraps are Difficult to Remove. 


While we recommend professional removal of your vehicle graphics, they can be removed just as easily as they were installed. When you're ready for a new look or ready to sell your vehicle, just bring it to us and we can remove the graphics. With just a little heat, the vinyl will lift off the vehicle, leaving behind no residue. As mentioned above, the paint underneath will look as good as it did when the vinyl vehicle wrap was applied.

Now that you know the truth about vehicle wraps, are you ready to get started? At ProDezigns, we'll help you create a custom promotional solution in the form of eye-catching vehicle graphics at the Lake of the Ozarks. Give us a call at 573-392-0500 to get started on your vehicle wrap design today!

4 Advantages of Auto Advertising

Have you been considering a Missouri custom vehicle wrap to advertise your business? What are you waiting for? The advantages of vehicle wrap advertising are undeniable. Here are just a few of the advantages auto advertising has over other forms of marketing:

1. You Don't Have to Pay for Space.


When you choose auto advertising as your marketing medium, you don't have to pay for advertising space. No more renting billboard space or purchasing a spot in a magazine. The space you are using is a vehicle that you already own! Once you purchase the vehicle wrap, you own it as well. There are no monthly fees (unless you choose to finance your wrap) and you can do with your wrap as you please.

2. You Can Stretch Your Advertising Dollars.


When compared to other advertising opportunities, vehicle wrap advertising gives you the best bang for your buck. Not only do you get more impressions at a lower price point, but a vehicle wrap can last anywhere from 3-5+ years. A one-time investment today will keep your advertising dollars working well into the future. How many other forms of advertising can say the same?

3. You'll Increase Reach and Brand Awareness. 


Passively reach your customers and increase brand awareness just by driving your vehicle around day to day. Statistics show that people notice, and often remember, vehicle wrap advertising. There's no better way to reach a large amount of people in a short amount of time than with a custom vehicle wrap from ProDezigns! With that kind of visibility, you're sure to see an increase in sales.


4. You Can Take Your Message Anywhere.  


Since your advertisement is your vehicle, you can take that marketing message anywhere you go! This allows you to market your product, service or brand in areas that wouldn't be possible by any other means. Not only can you market to those driving down the street, but you can also use your vehicle as a sign out front of your storefront or as a billboard when you park in a parking lot. Reach a variety of different people by taking your marketing just about anywhere.
