What is the most effective sign for my business?

The effectiveness of your custom sign depends on the type of business that you own, your location, and the types of services offered through your company. Contractors, distributors and other work-on-location type companies will benefit most from car wraps and vehicle lettering. Restaurants, salons and retail sales businesses need eye-catching storefront signs and A-frame signs to advertise specials. Business centers use directory signs to showcase the many individual businesses in their establishment. Hospitals, retailers and office buildings utilize wayfinding signs to direct customers throughout their facility. From parking to purchasing, a well-designed directional sign ensures that your customer can shop efficiently, locating the products and services that most fit their needs. Contact us to explore the types of signs that will work best for your business.

What information should my sign display?

With the advancement of digital print technology, the possibilities are endless. Your signs and graphics can reflect the name of your brand, your custom logo, information about the types of products and services you offer, as well as operating hours and contact information. You can even boost employee morale with motivational quotes or creative images that enhance your office’s interior design.

What are the three most important types of retail signs?

Every retail business needs signs. The top three signs for every retail business include:

Storefront Sign

This sign should be simple and easy to read from a distance. Do include your business name and/or logo. Don’t include extras, like your phone number or address on this sign.

A-frame Sign

Also called a Sandwich Board or Sidewalk sign, A-frame signs offer visibility at a level that passers-by can easily see. You can include contact information on this sign, as well as advertise sales or other important information that you want to share with potential customers.

Window Graphics

Don’t forget about your windows! They offer a view into your store, and enhancing them with messaging or graphics that bring the vibe of your store to the street will ensure that your message gets to the customers you’re looking to attract. Invite them into your store by advertising sales, promotions or events.

How do I care for my custom sign?

Most outdoor business signs can be cleaned with a mild soap and rinsed with water to maintain their appearance. They should be inspected periodically for wear and tear, and any peeling paint should be removed and repainted. Indoor signs can be wiped with a damp cloth. Car wraps and vehicle lettering have special cleaners that will extend their life. We do not recommend pressure washing for any type of sign.
