Ever wondered how those eye-catching vehicle wraps transform ordinary cars into powerful marketing machines? Skip Mauney sits down with John Hodgson, owner-operator of JH Design Unlimited, to uncover the art and science behind effective commercial vehicle wrapping on the Treasure Coast.
A lifelong artist with formal training in industrial design, John shares his fascinating journey from yacht designer to branding specialist. His passionate approach combines creativity with meticulous technical standards—holding both 3M preferred and Avery certified status ensures his wraps don't just look great but last for years. What began as a graphic design shop in 2010 has evolved into a comprehensive branding powerhouse, with vehicle wraps becoming their signature offering.
The conversation reveals surprising insights about mobile advertising effectiveness. "You get on average 101 impressions per mile," John explains, making vehicle wraps arguably the most cost-effective marketing investment available to local businesses. But not all wraps are created equal. John emphasizes the critical importance of clean, strategic design that communicates instantly, warning that cluttered wraps fail regardless of how colorful or attention-grabbing they might be. His "less is more" philosophy and obsession with quality have built his reputation across Florida's Treasure Coast.
Beyond the technical aspects, John's personal story of honoring his late mother through excellence in his craft reveals the human connection driving his business philosophy. "Everything I do, I pour my heart and soul into," he shares, explaining why each design remains unique and custom-tailored to the specific business it represents.
