When a new store, restaurant, or office is on the way, Coming Soon signage is the first sneak peek your future customers get. It’s your chance to build anticipation, create buzz, and let the neighborhood know that something exciting is arriving soon.
At Visual Creative Signs in New York City, we design and produce all kinds of coming soon signs that turn empty storefronts into attention-grabbing previews.
There are many types of coming soon signage, each serving a different purpose. Window vinyl graphics are a popular choice for covering construction or renovation areas while still teasing what’s to come. Banners are another great option, especially for outdoor spaces or temporary fencing. For a more polished and long-term look, you can use rigid signs like aluminum panels or mounted acrylic boards that display professional branding. Some businesses even use dimensional lettering or illuminated signs to make their announcement stand out at all hours.
What you include on your coming soon signage matters just as much as how it looks. The message should be clear and concise. Include your business name, logo, and a short tagline that hints at what you offer. Add key information like an opening date or season, a website or social media handle for updates, and a call to action such as “Follow us for the grand opening.” Good design balances bold visuals with easy-to-read text so people can absorb your message at a glance.
A well-made coming soon sign doesn’t just fill an empty space. It creates curiosity, sets the tone for your brand, and invites people to look forward to your opening day.
