As a business owner, you know that you have to work hard at marketing your business in order for it to compete and grow. You’re probably already doing some great advertising both online and off. But one proven marketing tactic that you may be not be doing yet is advertising your business through the use of personalised number plates.

Here are some reasons how personalised private plates can help your company grow.

Custom Reg Plates are Attention-Grabbers

Whether they’re on personal or business cars, private number plates grab attention. When people are stuck in traffic jams, they tend to look around. If one of your company’s vehicles happens to be in a traffic jam, other drivers there will likely see your car’s custom plate. And since custom plates are easily remembered, your business slogan or name will likely be remembered, which is always a good thing for your branding and advertising.

They Can Help You Keep Track of Your Fleet

If you have many vehicles in your fleet which all have personalised plates, it will be easy for you to keep track of which of your vehicles are out on the road at any given time. It’s much simpler to remember a custom registration plate than a longer original number plate.

They’ll Help Advertise Your Business and Build Brand Authority

If you happen to be in an industry that’s highly competitive, you know how important brand authority is. By putting custom reg plates on your fleet of vehicles, people that see your personalised plates will remember them. This can help raise public awareness of your business and provide you with an excellent advertising opportunity.

They’ll Look Amazing in the Media

When you have personalised reg plates on your fleet of vehicles, they’ll look great when you include your vehicles in TV ads, newspaper articles, press releases, etc. This can go far in helping you build your business’s identity. It will also help your business stand out from others in your industry, which is very important if you have a lot of local competition.

Without question, private reg plates can help your business grow. These plates are used by many successful businesses that appreciate their value.  What’s stopping you from ordering your personalised number plates today?

The drivers of today prefer to look at the growing popularity of people making use of personalised number plates and think that they could even be one of those that do so. Nowadays, getting a personalised number plate from the DVLA is no longer a priority task, but rather something which can be very easily done over the online website as well. By a simple combination of your preferred letters and numbers, you might be able to make a unique number plate that is very well receptive to the understanding of your everyday needs when driving the car.

One of the important things you have to remember when purchasing a new car is to get a personalised number plate. Doing so entitles you to getting a good discount on the overall pricing of the personalised number plate while ensuring that you are going to get a huge range of choices of letter combinations to choose from. That in itself is not only a good way for you to enjoy feeling a sense of individualism in your own car, but this level of customisation helps you in order to stick out from the crowd. That is what everybody likes in their car, something which enables them to stand out from the rest of the people driving on the road.

Looking at the huge range of personalised number plates that you can procure for your car, you should go for one which has your initials as well as a few choice numbers that can actually be good for you. For example, if you were born in the year 1985, and your name is Jacob, then going for a combination of those words and numbers can actually be fruitful in order to choose a proper number plate.

It also gives you a number plate the potential to be entirely different while at the same time conforming to the rules and regulations laid down by the DVLA. Your car will not feel any inspection, and you would not be doing anything illegal when looking to personalise your number plate in such a manner.

If you live in the United Kingdom and look for the personalised number plates were an entity that would be exclusively for the Irish people, then you are wrong. Not only are common people more than able to purchase the personalised number plates, they even have the leisure in order to design their own plate so that they can get it to their car. Everybody likes to feel important when they go out in the road, and not everybody has the purchasing power of getting a silver car in order to feel rich and important while on the road. This is why having a personalised number plate can actually give them a sense of individualism when they are out on the road.

There are a lot of things for you to choose from when you think about designing your own number plate. For example, you get to choose the first names that are to be put in the number plate, which is the general choice. On the general understanding, putting on the first time on a personalised number plate is extremely popular and very much in demand. Inevitably, it also results in a lot of first name combinations going out of the picture for a personalised number plate due to the huge demand for it and a lot of people already making use of such combinations.

If possible, always make use of a shorter version of your name to be put in the number plate. For example, if you use the Christian name of Catherine, then simply use kat or Cath on the number plate in order to make it unique and a necessary part of your number plate. That way, you would be able to easily get the number plate personalised according to your favour and without any kind of overwhelming costs associated with it.

The other thing you could do is to include initials in the number plate. The personalised number plate have all made use of initials simply because it helps you to differentiate your car from all the others on the road while at the same time there is a sense of customisation that you have inserted in your car.

Before you rush out and buy a personalised number plate for your vehicle, there are some legal considerations you should know about. If you make a mistake when choosing your private reg plate, you could risk a big fine and get a failed MOT.

Here are some common mistakes you should never make when choosing a personalised private plate:

Don’t Use the Wrong Font for Your Private Plate

There are rules and regulations you’ll have to adhere to when it comes to how your personalised number plate is formatted. If you find a company that tells you they have several fonts for you to choose from when designing your custom reg plate, don’t walk away from that company, run! In the UK, the only font that is used on all legal plates is called the Charles Wright font.

Don’t Use the Wrong Background or Colour

In order to be legal in the UK, number plates used on the front of vehicles must have a white background and plates used on the back of vehicles must have a yellow background. Backgrounds are considered illegal when they don’t feature a plain colour or when they have stickers on them that make it difficult to read the plate characters.

Don’t Use a Flag That’s Illegal

You cannot have just any old flag on your custom reg plate because there are laws that govern the types of flags allowed on plates. The only flags that you can have on a custom plate are those of the UK, EU, and British nations. This means you cannot show what football club you’re a fan of by displaying its flag on your plate. You have to play by the rules unless of course, you’d prefer paying a big fine!

Don’t Use the Wrong Spacing

The number plate spacing rules for plates registered prior to January 1, 1973 and after Sept 1, 2001, are the same. All vehicles registered within these time-frames are legally required to leave 11 millimetres between each character and 33 millimetres between the age identifier/memory tag.

For vehicles registered prior to Sept 1 but after Jan 1, 1973, the spacing rule is different. These vehicles must have plates with 13 millimetres of space between each character and 38 millimetres of space between the age identifier/memory tag.

Be sure to avoid these common mistakes so you don’t end up paying lots of money in fines and failing your MOT.

Many people are unsure how to transfer a private number plate to another vehicle. While the process of physically transferring a plate is very simple, it’s the accompanying paperwork that gets people confused.

How It’s Done

 If you’re about to transfer a private number plate to another vehicle, here’s what you’ll need in order to get the job done correctly:

  • A V5 registration form for both vehicles
  • A valid MOT if either vehicle is older than three years
  • A transfer fee payment (in cheque) to DVLA for £80
  • A completed V317 transfer form

Once you have the V5 registration, a valid MOT (if needed), and have paid the transfer fee, you can visit the DVLA website to download the V317 form. Now just complete the details of the vehicle the plate is coming off of on the left side of the form. Then complete the right side of the form with the details of the vehicle you’re moving the plate to. Now it’s time for both owners to sign this transfer form so it and the cheque can be sent to the DVLA.

How Long It Takes

Even though the DVLA says it can take between four and six weeks to complete the transfer of a private number plate, it usually is done in about three weeks. Once it is done, you’ll get a new V5 document with the new registration on it so you can order your new number plates.

Things to Keep in Mind

To ensure the process of transferring your number plates goes smoothly, both vehicles must be:

  • Registered with the DVLA
  • Available for inspection
  • Be taxed or have been taxed within the last year and then transferred to SORN

It’s important that you know the DVLA has the right to inspect either vehicle when transferring number plates. If you receive a notice that an inspection will take place the time it takes to complete the transfer will be extended. It’s also important to know that you cannot put a private number on a “Q” registered vehicle or use a private number plate that makes the vehicle look newer than it is.

When you follow these tips, you shouldn’t run into any problems that can delay the transfer of your number plates.
