Why think about signs now?
 

Signs are a good investment in your business! Studies have shown that a properly designed and well placed sign can grow sales by 3-34%. Signs are an inexpensive investment in your business because they work 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. Not only is signage an economical method of advertising, it is one of the most effective methods of advertising.
 

A common myth about signage is “My customers already know where my business is located”. 85% of a small business’ customers are located or work within 5 miles of the business.  However, demographic studies show that 18 – 20% of the population is relocating annually.  To maintain or grow a business, it is necessary to advertise so that new prospects in your area know where to find you. Signs are an inexpensive way to accomplish this.
