Business Signage: Your Quietest Employee with the Loudest Voice
Did you know that 8 out of 10 consumers said they had entered a business for the first time because of its signage alone? If you really think about it, your signs are an extension of your staff. After all, they do many of the things employees do, such as directing consumers to products and services, providing information on them, advertising promotions or sales, and the like. As such, the design, effectiveness, location and presentation can greatly impact the success of your business and marketing efforts.
Effective Signage Can Help Your Business in Several Ways:
Branding and Visibility
Customers are much more likely to patronize a familiar business. Eye-catching, strategically located signage promote consumer brand recognition and recall.
Differentiation
Help highlight what sets your business and/or its products and services apart from the competition.
Functionality
Displaying promotions are not the only purpose for signage. Signs should also be used for wayfinding, safety, beautification/decoration, and the like.
If you’re still not sure whether you should invest in professional, attention-grabbing signage for your business, or replacing your dated, old or damaged existing signage, below are a few more reasons to consider.
- Cost Effective: With most of the cost being up-front from design, production and installation, with few further costs incurring beyond that, business signage is one of the most cost-effective marketing mediums.
- Constant: Once installed or displayed, your business’s signage works for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 365 days a year.
- Variety: You can get quite creative! There are many options when it comes to materials, application and design.
Speaking of “variety,” being a full-service marketing firm, MCS can help plan, design, produce and even install your business signage. In our 28 years of experience, we have learned a thing or two about what not only makes signage attractive, but effective as well. Here are just a few of our many offerings.
