Blog: How to Choose a Fleet Wrap Provider You Can Trust

Fleet Wrap 101

Looking for an affordable way to effectively increase your brand’s awareness? Vehicle wraps for fleets are mobile advertisements, capable of reaching thousands of potential customers daily. Cars, trucks, vans, boats; anything that moves can be used to advertise your enterprise and help build your brand’s visibility—anywhere, anytime.

So how do you determine whom you should choose to provide decal work for your vehicles? Here are the top qualities you should consider when selecting a fleet wrap provider:

[list type=circle_list]

Overall Fleet Wrap Experience – When deciding to get graphic work created for your fleet, be informed. When looking for a graphics installation company, overall experience will be at the forefront of your mind. Knowing how long a branding company has been in the promotional wrap industry is important as it speaks to its reliability. You want to select a company who will help you get your business noticed with minimum risk and maximum effectiveness.
Installation Experience – When looking to have installation work done, installation experience (in addition to overall experience) is vital. The company you choose should have many years of experience in fleet wrap installation. Furthermore, they should be able to print your graphics and install it at their site or send an established installer in your region.
Dedicated Partnerships – When choosing your fleet wrap provider, keep in mind that professionals in fleet wrap printing can also become lasting business partners and establish a relationship with your company. A fleet wrap printing provider that has the initiative to make productive recommendations in materials, graphics, and trim design based on your needs is unquestionably a company you would want to establish a dedicated partnership with.[/list]

Ignite Attention With Backlit Graphics

Research tells us that displays noticed first at today’s trade shows are the ones that are backlit. Eyes are immediately drawn to the brighter colours and eye-catching graphics.

Backlit graphics are especially effective in darker venues such as restaurants, specialty retailers, on menu boards, behind a bar, or on retail signs and displays, inside or out. Inspire the latest fashion look on a wall leading to a store change room. Give a seasonal look at the front lobby. Choose from a simple transit backlit sign to a massive flex vinyl message that makes your message bigger than life.

Sounds complicated? Expert installers at Auto Trim Design provide everything you need, from lighting technology, slim portable light boxes and overall design concept. Set up can be done quickly and easily.

Go ahead. Ignite attention!

Stuck in Traffic? Make it Worth Your While

So you’re late for a client meeting, stuck in traffic. Or sales have been slow so you’ve parked your van and gone home early. You may be off the job, but your wrapped vehicle is still hard at work!

Branded company cars, vans, trucks, motorbikes all keep working long after you’ve packed it in for the day. Stuck in traffic? Everyone around you is looking at your company name and brand message. Parked at the side of the road? Wherever your vehicle is, your products and services are being advertised around the clock.

And unlike digital advertising (like an email message), no one can turn off a vehicle wrap ad. Even when a wrapped car is parked or stuck in traffic, it’s capturing attention and sparking interest.

Put Your Message At Your Customer’s Feet – Literally

Believe it or not, more people look down at their feet these days than a decade before. Why? Their eyes are focused on small screens-iPads, smartphones, iPods, androids, etc. (We’re not making this up!)

Looking down is making vinyl floor graphics increasingly popular. Company messages and logos on the floor catch people’s eyes while they are already looking down at small screens or just looking around them.

Put your message and brand directly underfoot with eye-catching graphic on floors and sidewalks that build awareness, inform and sell.

Finish First Place Finish in Brand Promotion!

Ever wonder where racing cars get those amazing designs? 3M Wrap Films-the same personalized 3M wrap films used by Auto Trim Design-are used on many NASCAR vehicles. During last year’s NASCAR season, 3M Commercial Graphics set up a demonstration area at seven events outside of the track where visitors could watch a car being customized with car wrap films from 3M.

3M film comes in a wide range of colours and finishes. All installation by expert installers comes with paint protection so when removed, your vehicle is good as new.

So wrap your fleet in a winning design. It will make your product name and brand come in FIRST PLACE in your customer’s mind.

What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

Frosted window treatments are the perfect solution for providing privacy, yet letting in some natural light. Think of frosted treatments for windows, doors, inside dividing walls-wherever you have glass. For a receptionist space, or a street level office, solid vinyl graphics give complete privacy when you don’t want everyone looking in. Frosted vinyl graphic lets in some light but shields you from direct access.

Frosted window treatments are also an attractive and creative approach, especially when used for seasonal messaging! Incorporate your corporate message subtly into full frosted graphics or just frosted patterns to create the effect of etched glass.

Frosted window treatments create a statement and gives privacy. Let’s keep what’s happening in Vegas-stay in Vegas!

Bring Your Billboards and Signs into the Light

Why keep your customers in the dark? By using illuminated signs, your message comes through clear, bright and shining, regardless of the time of day or the lighting conditions. Images come alive with the benefit of light, colours are brighter and more accurate.

Outside, illuminated signs can be mounted on a wall or freestanding. Inside a building, they give additional impact suspended from a ceiling or over an entranceway. Wherever they’re used, the exceptional quality of illuminated signs makes them able to withstand the elements.

As we approach that time of year with shorter days and dark wintery nights, think of the impact you can make with a sign or billboard, lighting up your message and brand.
