Hey was wondering if anyone had some tips or suggestions for my truck wrap. I have never had a full wrap before and was wondering:
a)Should I put both my cell and the business number
b) website and email address or just one
any other info that I may have forgotten. I don’t want to overcrowd it with text that ppl prob wont read anyways but was wondering what essentials I need.
Any thoughts on these designs. (Some of the Graphics are obviously not appropriate for my field)
1st one. Straight and to the point.

1 or 3 look very good to me.

3 looks good. I would get rid of the e-mail and only include one phone number, and make the phone number larger. I just think the bed is a little cluttered, and feel like there are to many different contact options
Number 1 looks good to me, my only suggestion make the number larger.

Love the third one down. Make your name a lot smaller An window cleaning , An phone number a little bigger. The M is perfect 
I would also stick with one phone number
Personally I have never been a fan of wraps unless you have a fleet of vehicles. I feel they are too busy and complicated. They are designed to impress others in your trade and the folks who sell wraps. Next time you see wrapped vehicles in traffic, take note of how long it takes to figure what actual business they are in. Often it takes a few to sort through everything you see.
I have my name and phone number and Window Cleaner prominently displayed. I work in gated lake communities for residential, and I mainly want the neighbors to be able to see what work their neighbors are having done. I am basically parking a billboard in the driveway for a couple of hours.
Save your money for tools, equipment or time away.

Wrap is the way to good. Best thing I ever did. Instant credibility as soon as you pull up for that estimate. Never mind all the calls you will get from it. It says professional from day one. Worth every penny.
When it fades rip it off an buy a new one. Had my wrap for going on 2 years paid for itself 3 times over already maybe more
Yours looks great!!! Just make sure what you do is big, phone number big.

Not to be argumentative, but why does a wrap add instant credibility? It says you spend money, but what else?

Just a suggestion on number 3. On the bed like some one said to cluttered . Maybe take everything away An just have your one number (bigger). An put Window cleaning as big as possible on the bed. An keep your name the way it is on the door
A wrap/lettered up vechile gives you instant cred when you pull up looking like a pro. Some people don’t even get you from the wrap. When you pull up looking like a pro instant cred. It’s that simple.
im not saying if lettered up right can’t do the same. Me I’m the type that says just go all the way if your going to do something. Money shouldn’t be an isssue when doing things for your business. One guy says they fade An look like shit . I get that , that’s a good reason then for not going wrap. Me when it fades An looks like shit maybe then I’ll go to lettterimg , because the van will be old wouldn’t want to spend all that money again.
You say they are busy An complicated. Yes some are , good ones aren’t. You say they are designed to impress others in the trade. I sure as hell didn’t get a wrap to impress others in the trade. I got a wrap to get phone calls An look professional. An I’m telling ya that’s exactly what it’s doing. Could a lettered up truck/van do the same. Yes if done right .
Trust me man I’ve went a long time with nothing on my vechile , An since having the wrap I’ve just noticed a difference , an have had a few customers tell me thye chose me because I looked professional . Once again lettering is fine I can’t really say as far as business goes which would produce better . For me it was wrap .
An once again yes I spent money , but it comes back many ,many times over.

Interesting. Good marketing? Sure, I see that.
Instant credibility? I don’t see that so much. Down here we refer to that as ‘All hat, no cattle’. Or at least the fear of that.
To me, instant credibility is in your demeanor, knowledge of your trade and most importantly in the quality you deliver.
That said, I do like the wraps I see around town. They look great! But I wouldn’t select a business or vendor based on it.
Again, just my opinion.

How is that instant ?

People in general can pick up on these things immediately. Especially intelligent, reasonable customers. I’m sure that is your target customer, as is mine. If you are trying too hard to sell them, don’t know what your talking about, or have a bad reputation - they know it.
I don’t want to start a cat fight over wraps - I think there was some guy that did that some time back. Bit of an idiot, but he did make some valid points. But simple lettering on a clean, professional looking vehicle will suffice for the small business. I’d be willing to bet there are many guys in here without any lettering on vehicles that have more work than they can handle. How do they do it? Their credibility likely shows up in everything they say and do.

^this is true for me. No lettering on my vehicle, yet customers always tell me that they chose me because I’m professional and they recommend me to others based on that.

A) Just the office number, make it big enough so people can easily see it.
B) Just the website
I like the text on 4, on the background 1, add the glass doors of 2 in place of the bucket.
What will the tailgate look like? That is the most important, it is where most of the people take the info from. 5 different wrap companies have showed me some research that was done on this.
Side note: There research also showed the primary colors of wrap or lettering, red/white were the more recognizable, followed by red/white/blue. Then green/white and orange/yellow. My wraps are blue/white just like everyone elses.

Thanks for all the feedback. I have sent revisions waiting for the updated design.
I don’t anyone would deny that most of the time being confident and convincing the customer you know what you’re doing and they are in good hands will go much farther than a wrap. However when I’m doing residential jobs, especially ones with difficult ladder work all the neighbors drive by and look and they cant find my company name or number on site. Its not a huge expense, its warrantied for 5 years comes out to about 30 a month. If I pick up over five years even 1 or 2 residential regulars it has more than paid for itself.
