Magnetic Banner on Van?

Hey Guys,

I was thinking about lead generation tonight....has anyone ever made large magnetic signs for automobiles, and had them driven around town?

Theres no way I would want to do this to my own car, but I like the idea out outsourcing this via Craiglist, to 9-10 people, all with large white vans, and pay them roughly $100-$200 per month for this ad space.

What's your opinion?

Hi Jared, 

As someone who used to be in the sign making business I would caution you on making the magnets too large.  The bigger they are the more chance they will go flying off the side of the van when is driving around.  For this reason I had made a policy not to make ones larger than 18"x24".  Things to consider are: the replacement cost and what if it causes an accident.
