Title: Team Displays
Post by: The Gym 14 on March 12, 2008, 01:02:55 pm
We are pricing Popups and accessories to have at competitions and personal uses for our team, The Gym Grill & Bar. We plan on using the displays for events such as Catering, Biker poker runs, Bar anniversaries, and whatever other reason we can come up with to smoke, eat, and of course drink. As these popups and all can be very pricey when adding all the logos and phone number info and the likes (popups are realitively cheap compared to the printing on them), we were wondering if anyone knows where we can get this done at a fair price. Example being $600 for a 10' x 20' popup and after printing totall coming to $4100. Really wasn't planning on a loan to get it done. Have talked to others a bit cheaper but would still pull it down if a fan was blowing close by to prevent damage. Really not wanting to try my artistic talents either. Would very much apprec. any help from you all.

Julia Moody at Omni Promotional is great, they do all of the DeWALT tents, they are still pricey, but they do great work.

I'm waiting to get enough $$$ to order a few.  Tell her Mike from AZBarbeque sent you and at least get a quote from her.

Hey Mike I contacted Julia and spoke with her already and she is putting quotes together already, Thank you so much again for all your help. You are now officially unofficially a member of our team.
I have other options from a couple places that will do our logos and whatever else on the same material the popus are made of for $6.50 a sq. foot. which can be sewn on our popups. The disadvantage is it is sewn on but being ours will be black how noticable would it be? The advantage is if our popup gets ripped we could remove it and sew it on another for pretty cheap.
I am still waiting to here from them but I think the ballpark figure is going to be at the most $1000 which includes about 6 logos 3' diameter and phone numbers and names around the valance.
What do you think, may be worth it.

McFrankenboo BBQ did our own pop ups.  Here's the breakdown...

Pop ups from Walmart - $100
white pop up tops from Walmart - $70 for 2
indoor/outdoor paint  and brushes - $10
Extremely crafty and artistic wife - Priceless

That sounds about right, the quote I got from Julia was right at $1000 for the unit and the custom grapics, if we order 5 or more, it gets cheaper, but I don't need 5 or more pop ups right now, hopefully in the future I will, but not right now.

Their quality is fantastic, those tents are really heavy duty which I like.

I too went to Sam's club and purchased 2 new EZ-Up tents, the new ones, for just $147/tent.  Came with 4 side walls, bag, and a few other things. Great price, just no custom graphics.

Jim, is Erin and her creativity for rent??  ;D  That would sure save us all lots of $$$

I can see it now McFrankenboo shows up for competions and nothing is ready for judges turnins because his wife has been painting everyone elses displays to compete against his, which as we know was awesome. I don't think we could afford her, plus she would probably use water colors so we would have to pay her again and again. (lol)

 I am going to try McFrank's recipe. My sister wants to batik our Bearbonez logo. Should be interesting. My biggest fear is with the batik job and long hair, that I might be labled as a freakin hippie.

What do you mean, "MIGHT"??

We already call you the Hawaiian, Hippie, Biker BBQer, but hey, you are still the lovable Bear we all enjoy no matter what your label...  It's hard to label the Bear...

Hey Mike, really appreciate the contact with Julia. Being as stubborn as I am, or cheap, I kept searching and found a guy in Tenn. who ended up beating everyone elses price by quite a bit and thought I would pass it on to you and everyone else. Seemed to be a great guy and really worked with me on setup and pricing.

What we are going to have, for future events obviously, and catering and whatever else. Wouldn't dream of bringing this to Stagecoach and the Western theme.   LMAO

Wow, very impressive looking.  They did a great job.  What's their lead time?

I asked him if he can get it done in 3 weeks and he told me absolutely that that wasn't even a challenge. He said he can pretty much get anything done in around 14 days or less.

Is that a 12 by 12?  what type of range, if I may ask.....

Post by: The Gym 14 on March 26, 2008, 11:47:14 pm
A 10 x 20 in middle with 10 x 10 on each side, a little extreme all together but what we don't know maybe we can fake it right. No we are hoping to do different things and was screwing around to see what we could do with all it together.

Post by: Mike (AZBarbeque) on March 27, 2008, 12:00:43 am
WOW, so fully set up with all of it would be a 40X10?

That would be one impressive setup..

Post by: The Gym 14 on March 27, 2008, 12:08:13 am
Yep, although massive up front kinda weak in the depth part of it. We would have to figure out the center better of course since we would have to get through to the smoker and prep tables w/o going all the way around. Prob. put 2 logo backs on rear of each end (10fters) and the side rails on very ends leaving the 2 center back walls all the way open, if of course we ever set all up at once. Hey not my money I just get to spend it.

The set up that I like to use now is 20X20 so that I have the depth.  For Stagecoach, we are going 20X30 deep with a wall at 10' so in the back we will have 20X20 for prep, cleaning, etc. (Screened in of course Thom)..

That's a really nice setup!  Beats the hell out setting up 10x10's next to each other.

Our setups should be in today, I will take pictures and post it when I get it set up. The guy who did it said it looks great so we shall see. The reason we got 1 10x20 and 2 10x10's is so we can arrange it alot of diff. ways or just use parts of it when we have space restrictions.
