Importance of Signs

If you operate or plan to start a business, it is important to consider how you plan to use signage. A creative, attractive sign can propel your business into a higher standard so you stand out apart you’re your competition. ChamberofCommerce.com says, customers are more likely to purchase from a business they have already heard of, so a sign helps plant the seed for current and all future sales.

Sign Function

Signs serve like a silent salesperson for your business. Your exterior signs will draw attention to your place of business and help differentiate it from others along your street or complex. Interior signs help customers locate merchandise and reinforce impulse sales. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration website, signs are a primary link between businesses and customers.

Sign Types

A beautiful exterior sign can be mounted to the wall, monument, small wall or posted in the ground. The goal is to have a sign that is apart of the design of your landscape but stand out so it can be seen. Building-mounted signs are attached to the building and need to be seen from a roadway, parking lot or will be useful in areas with high foot traffic, such as shopping areas.

Sign Significance

Signs are an essential component of a your overall marketing strategy. A sign might need to contain a business's logo in order to reinforce your brand. But interior signs need to draw attention to promotions and to convey information about the business. An exterior sign is visible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, so its effect is continuous.

Sign Benefits

Some businesses have limited marketing funds so their signs can be a cost-effective form of marketing. According to the SBA website, the cost-per-thousand, a common method used to measure the cost of reaching a thousand potential customers, is much lower for signage than other types of advertising, such as radio, televisions and newspapers.

Final Considerations

Signs aren’t limited to your place of business. You can use vehicle graphics as a form of mobile advertising. Vehicle graphics and wraps are an effective branding tool in today’s marketing jungle.

Bigger is Better with Windows Graphics

Bigger is better when attracting store front traffic. Window advertising can be a powerful way to communicate your products and services using vibrant full color vinyl window wraps or vinyl window lettering.

Wrapping the window commonly involves covering large areas of glass with a single piece. The window can be wrapped using perforated vinyl, which allows those inside to see through, while the graphic is only visible from the public side. In addition to its marketing benefits, wrapping the windows can greatly reduce solar heat and UV light from coming through.

Window lettering and decals partially cover the windows with shaped graphics and die cut lettering such as a logo, hours of business and contact information. Either method can not be missed!

We here at Sign Age love doing window wraps and graphics and have had the opportunity to work on a wide range of window projects! Through our in-house graphic design, production and installation capabilities we can help you effectively promote your business, products and services.

We Wrapped It Up For The Retreat

The Retreat, a new U of A student cottage community, just opened their doors. The Retreat is a housing development for college students attending the University. They lease out individual cottages and offer resort style amenities to their residents including a fitness facility, pool, spa and club house. They also offer transportation to and from the University to accommodate those students that do not have another form of transportation.

 

Sign Age had the opportunity to wrap a 30 foot bus for The Retreat which will be used to shuttle students to and from school. It will serve as an easily identifiable method of transportation and a great form of advertising for The Retreat.

Vehicle wraps can be a huge method to advertise your company image, products and services. Vehicle advertising turns out to be the best advertising value as you can reach over 750,000 potential customers every month with each vehicle that features your advertising. In order to make that many impressions in traditional media, whether newspaper, radio, TV or billboards, it would cost thousands of dollars every month.

The Importance of Vehicle Graphics

How important are vehicle graphics to your business? 

Marketing is a key to success for any business. This has been widely known since the Greeks created the republic. I think Plato was quoted saying, "Thou shalt make those aware of your melons in order to sell them." Maybe it was Aristotle that said it first.

All kidding aside, The best and most effective way to market your goods and to achieve the best ROI (return on investment) is often overlooked. It is vehicle graphics. The up front costs of vehicle graphics can seem high but the return on durable and well designed graphics will last for years. Also, when comparing the up front costs to other advertisement options like radio,TV or billboards ads, vehicle graphics are the best overall value.

Here are some reasons to get your vehicle wrapped:

3M found that vehicle graphics have the potential to reach over 3000 people every hour if you drive on busy roads.

You can use your car to advertise 24/7 if you park your car in a visible parking lot.

Any company vehicle that is not wrapped is not tapping into the advertising return a vehicle provides. Don't let your company vehicle waste away- it is your moving, working billboard.

Lastly, there are so many ways to use your vehicle. It is a five sided blank canvas. Our graphics department can help you fill that canvas with powerful vehicle graphics that are clear, effective and worth every dime.

Contact us today! Don't put off vehicle graphics any longer. 520-806-0322

Young Explorers 'Sticky Paper Art'

Sign Age ends up with a lot of scrap vinyl in a variety of colors from our many ongoing projects. As a result, we donate the scrap vinyl to several schools in the area. Young Explorer Schools is one that receives the scraps. The school kids call it 'Sticky Paper Art'. They create large colorful murals using the vinyl pieces.

Dr. Fil Brooks, Educational Director for Young Explorers, shared a picture of one of the murals the school kids produced. She says that not only can "each child be successful and enjoy creating their own art pieces, they have practice using scissors which enables them to develop their small motor skills. It is always rewarding to watch them spend time peeling the backing and feeling they have accomplished a major achievement. Young Explorers Schools truly appreciate Sign Age for supplying us with the vinyl. 'Sticky Paper Art' is a big exciting and rewarding art experience for us!"
