Consumers draw conclusions from signs
Consumers draw conclusions from signs and signs have potential to increase profits. To determine how efficiently a sign is performing its communication function, thereby increasing customer traffic, sales and potential profits, it should be analyzed from four angles:
[su_box title=”Sign Efficacy” box_color=”#d3eeda” title_color=”#2c5830″]
- Gaining attention of a prospective customer
- Communicating a name and a product or service.
- Communicating the correct image.
- Communicating specific customer benefits and seasonal information.

Gaining Attention
It is necessary to gain the attention of a potential customer before it is possible to communicate with him. If someone passes by your place of business and never really sees your business or sign, no communication was achieved. When evaluating how well a sign gains attention, the following 12 factors should be considered:
[su_box title=”12 Eliments of Effective Signage” box_color=”#d3eeda” title_color=”#2c5830″]
- Size
- Color and Contrast
- Shape
- Placement
- Visual Competition
- Motion
- Flashing Capacity
- Message Centers
- Lighted Awnings
- Site and Building Architecture
- Habituattion
- Testing

In future blogs we will explore each of these 12 factors in detail, review how each contributes in gaining the attention of a potential customer, resulting in potential sales and profits. We will also discuss the important roles that communicating a name, product or service, correct image and specific customer benefits are in increasing potential profits with signage.
Planning for your Trade Show or Special Event

Unfortunately, most organizations aren’t set up to print their own signs for anything but the most ad hoc of gatherings. Custom signage can be extremely pricey, however, especially if remembering the need for signage comes late in the event planning process. Sign Expo can design, develop and produce banners, window graphics, sidewalk displays, flags, wall graphics, vehicle graphics, booth displays…if you can put a logo on it, we can create it, with high quality, excellent durability and a price that can’t be beat.

WOW! Factor
Many stores focus on making sure a customer is wowed upon walking through the door. But as much as the fixtures, displays and signage can help a store succeed, there’s not much benefit unless people are walking through the door in the first place. While the inside of the shop needs to be consumer friendly as possible for the ultimate shopping experience, store’s need to remember the outside of their shop is the first impression, and like they say, you only get one.
Think of how often you pass the stores you shop at. Most people drive the same routes every day, including those same storefronts every time you drive by; the same strip mall with the same tired stores that are competing with the chain stores and mega-retailers. They all begin to look the same, and when everything looks the same your store isn’t getting noticed.

Why Many People do not see Most of Your Signs
Most people on the sidewalk of your business do not see most of your signage because its over 8 ft tall.
Your Solution: A Board Signs.
The term ‘A board’ refers to the shape of the sign, when viewed from the side you can see 2 boards joined at the top and with a strut between which forms the shape of the capitol ‘A’. Most have a collapsible strut to allow for compact, flat storage.
All A board signs are sold blank. Some units allow you to insert posters while others are classed as permanent.
Sandwich boards were popular in 18th century, and have a largely been supplanted by billboards, which are more effective in advertising to passers-by who are now likely to be automobiles, rather than traveling by foot.
‘A’ Boards purpose is to advertise specials, deals, events, goods and to expose your store to eye level of busy Manhattan sidewalks.
