Having a distinctive logo and a brand that’s easily recognizable is important for marketing any company, especially when it comes to your sign. Great signage adds to that branding as well. Signage brings your brand to life and is an important element for your marketing. In addition to the normal signs we see from our cars, one often overlooked signage placement is inside a facility or office. Everyone remembers that they want the best and the biggest outside their business, but many owners or managers forget that the internal signage is nearly as important.
No matter where your sign is placed, it’s imperative that it shows high standards and a great first impression. You don’t want something cobbled together or written with markers. Any signage you use inside or out, is a form of marketing and branding. When it comes to your outside signage, this is a 24-hour seven-days a week marketing tool that you will want to look great. Your internal signage projects your brand to your employees, visitors and customers.
Tips for selecting signage
It’s important to understand how critical signage is to your company and marking. The following tips can you select the right signage for your company:
- Branding your company is about more than hanging a sign in a window. You should remember to select colors and icons that stand for something and couple those with the ideal materials and finishes. Some finishes help to bring out certain colors and some materials do the same. It’s important to look at everything when deciding.
- You’ll want the signs to do more than look nice and you’ll want them to provide information, whether it’s your phone number, email, website or what type of business you have (i.e. tree service, financial planners, etc.).
- The sign, just like your website, brochures and emails, is part of your brand. You’ll want to mimic your brand’s look through your signs, no matter where they are located.
- Your office or company space is unique, so why not also think in terms of creating signs for those spaces. You can point people in a certain direction or let them know that this is the manufacturing area or accounts department.
- Some companies see the font style or size as something that’s important, while others look past it. You should take a good look at how it measures up to your logo or your brand. Do the signs around your space use the same font style?

How we help in each stage of the sign process:
- Pre-production-Our team can partner with you on logo creation and sign layout rendering. If you have your design, we can take a vector file, since we use InDesign, Illustrator or Photoshop. However, if you don’t have your own designer, no worries. We have in house graphic designers that can assist you for a nominal fee. The sign layout rendering includes the dimension, material finish, size details and mounting details. Not only can we help with the best font style and size, but we can identify the right manufacturer. For bigger projects or in areas with stricter regulations, we can also help with sign permit filings and procurement of those permits.
- Production-As project managers, we ensure that the correct materials, fonts and colors are used to create your sign or signs. We take our jobs very seriously and will communicate with the manufacturer to get it right.
- Post-production-Once the letters and/or signs have been produced we oversee the delivery or shipping process. This means the signs and letters go where they are supposed to and delivered in a way that doesn’t cause harm during shipping. One important aspect of our services is the installation process. Not only do we mange that process, but we offer nationwide installation services to ensure no mistakes are made.
In addition to these services, our work includes prototypes, precise laser and/or water jet cutting, custom painting. We offer precision cuts using a laser, CNC router or water jet machinery.
