Protect Your Vehicle Wrap this Winter

Temperatures are dropping and soon that dreaded sheet of ice will be covering your car each morning.  Vehicle wraps in Jefferson City, Columbia and the Lake of the Ozarks areas are designed to withstand whatever mother nature throws as us.  Although the extreme Winter temperatures won't harm your vehicle wrap, what you do to your vehicle during these conditions could potentially be harmful.  ProDezigns is here to prepare you for taking the best care of your vehicle wrap you can this winter!

Ice Scrapers 


When ice is present on your car windows, one of the first things many people do is reach for that handy ice scraper.  For most people this is great way to get rid of that ice fast.  These scrapers were designed to take everything off your windows, including your vinyl.  The scraper will almost certainly rip off or at the very least damage that vinyl.  The best way to avoid this problem, is to run the defrost or window heaters for awhile.  If ice or snow is still present after trying to melt it that way, use a soft brush to remove the excess snow or ice.

Road Salt 


Here in Missouri, the roads can get pretty slick during the Winter months.  The city will often put down salt to help vehicles maneuver better and avoid accidents.  This road salt, however, can be quite damaging to eh vinyl vehicle wraps.  The salt can actually corrode the vinyl and also cause discoloration to the design if the salt is left untreated.  To avoid this issue, be sure to wash your car wrap regularly and keep it as clean as possible.

If you're Lake of the Ozarks, Jefferson City or Columbia vehicle wrap does become damaged this winter, contact ProDezigns about replacing it.  The great thing about our vehicle wraps is that if the damages are limited to certain areas of the vehicle, we can replace just the damaged pieces or panels rather than having to redo the entire wrap.  Missouri's BEST wrap shop is here to provide you with the highest level of service, satisfaction and personal attention with every project we do!  

If you can drive it, ride it, pull it, fly it, or lift it, we can wrap it!

5 Tips for Creating a Strategic Vehicle Wrap

ProDezigns vehicle wraps can be one of the best marketing tools you invest in.  You can't just throw a bunch of graphics and words together and be done though. Behind every great vehicle wrap, there's a strategy.  From concept to completion our award winning designers work closely with you to create a high-impact, custom promotional solution that best suits your individual marketing needs!

Vehicle Wrap Strategy  


1. Define Goals - What is the purpose of getting a vehicle wrap at the Lake of the Ozarks, Jefferson City or Columbia?  What do you want to accomplish with your vehicle wrap?  You'll also need to think about how you're going to measure its effectiveness.

2. Create a Clear, Consistent Message -  How your company looks to the outside world sets a tone for all your interactions.  Think about who your target audience is and why.  What challenges or problems does your product or service fix?  Getting to the root of what you do and why you do it will help you come up with a direct message that relates to your clients and is easy for them to understand.

3. Short and Sweet - Although vehicle wraps can generate 30,000 to 70,000 vehicular impressions per day, most people viewing it will not give it more than a few seconds of attention.  If you're stopped at a stop light, you may get a little more time to impress them; however, most of the time they will be seeing your wrap as your cruising down the highway.  The less information you put on your vehicle wrap, the easier it's going to be to get your message across. Would you rather have 10 things that no one remembers or one to two memorable takeaways?  Keep the design short and sweet and to the point.

4. Call to Action - Tell your customers what you want them to do.  Do you want them to call you? Do you want them to schedule an appointment?  Add a call to action with your phone number.  You could even consider offering a discount for those that say they saw your vehicle driving around.  If you choose to do this though, keep in mind tip #3 and keep it short and sweet!

5. Follow Guidelines - If your company belongs to a franchise, you may have certain guidelines that you have to follow.  Be sure to look into this before starting on your custom vehicle wrap in Jefferson City, Columbia or Lake of the Ozarks.  Another important thing to consider is that you don't use any messages or images that infringe on anyone else's copyrights.

At Pro Dezigns we strive to give our clients the highest level of service, satisfaction and personal attention to detail with every project we do. Utilizing new marketing techniques that have been proven time and again to be creative, innovative and on the cutting edge of technology will create a lasting impact to all that see your advertising. Contact Missouri's BEST Wrap Shop today at 573-392-0500 to start getting maximum marketing results!

Better Than A Billboard!

Billboards and vehicle wraps at the Lake of the Ozarks, Jefferson City and Columbia have several things in common.  Both are marketing mediums that are quite noticeable. However, these types of advertising have a lot of differences too!  Here are several comparisons that will show you why our Missouri custom vehicle wraps are Better Than A Billboard!


1. Billboards are Stationary, but Vehicle Wraps are Mobile!


When it comes to choosing a Billboard, you have to pick one spot and that's where your marketing message will stay.  Billboards are stationary and your market is limited to the number of vehicles that drive by that location each day.  Many cars probably drive that route each day and after awhile will stop noticing your billboard.

With vehicle wraps, you are able to take your marketing message anywhere you want!  The mobility of vehicle graphics allows you to reach new audiences each day.  According to the Traffic Audit Bureau for Media Measurement, vehicle wrap advertising can generate 30,000 to 70,000 impressions per day!  Each time you turn down a different road or park your vehicle in a new location, you are reaching a new, different audience.  You have the ability to advertise in areas where it would be impossible by any other means, like huge shopping malls, sporting events or parades!


2. Billboards you Rent, but Vehicle Wraps you Own!


Billboards are a rented amount of space that must be paid regularly. The cost of that space depends on where the billboard is located; higher traffic areas are going to cost you more.  Plus many owners have a limit on how long you can lease it, therefore restricting your marketing message.

Vehicle wraps on the other hand, can last several years if maintained properly.  Rather than renting space, you actually own the graphics and the vehicle that they're on.  You have the ability to take your marketing message wherever you want without paying more for higher traffic areas!

 

3.Vehicle Wraps are More Affordable than Billboards! 


The average cost of renting a billboard can range anywhere from $500-$8,000 per month depending on the location and how many people see it.  You will also have a one-time fee for the design and printing.  To rent this space for as long as a vehicle wrap will last, would cost you a fortune!  

If you are using your vehicle wrap in Columbia, Jefferson City or the Lake area as a marketing tool there is no more cost-effective advertising method available, and why not use your vehicle to its fullest potential to gain you business! For a one-time fee, you'll have a marketing message that will last you years.  No monthly fees for rented space to worry about.  It has been proven that the cost per impression of vehicle wraps is less than other forms of advertising such as billboards, television, radio, yellow pages and even newspapers!

Take your custom graphics from Missouri's Best Wrap Shop with you anywhere you go! At Pro Dezigns we strive to give our clients the highest level of service, satisfaction and personal attention to detail with every project we do.  From concept to completion our award winning designers work closely with you to create a high-impact, custom promotional solution that best suits your individual marketing needs.  ProDezigns is making your business capital mobile using full color graphics on a vehicle wrap...and we are Better Than a Billboard!
