Here are some steps to guide you in deciding which type of sign is right for your business.
- Banners are flexible and inexpensive, but many sign production services companies also offer dimensional letters, exhibit and display signage, point-of-purchase signs, illuminated signs, vinyl lettering, decals, and signage for vehicles
- Most signage companies can work with your own logos and graphics while some offer complete design services as well.
- Because signage can give customers a first impression of your business, you'll want to err on the side of quality.
To get started, your primary decision is to order online or use a local sign shop.
Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done
Order locally
Local signage shops and services give you face-to-face ordering and service, but they might not offer the best price.I recommend: Check out the Retail Sign Shop Network, FedEx Kinko's, FASTSIGNS.
Order online
What you don't get in face-to-face service can sometimes be mitigated by handy Web-based forms, design-your-own online options, less expensive pricing, and fast delivery.I recommend: There are dozens of online stores – here are some that offer a good mix of services, price, and quality: Banner-Source.com, Bull Charge Banners, Creative Outdoor Advertising's OnlineSignShop.com, SignBanners.com, Display Signs & Design, SignOutfitters.com, and Sugar House Banners.
Tips & Tactics
Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
- Don't skimp on the proofing process. If you use an online form, you want to proof your design before it goes into production; otherwise, if you mistype your business name, you might find it in huge lettering at your doorstep soon.
- Vinyl banner signs are not always seamless, so you'll want to choose a seam design based on your durability needs. For instance, banner tape is the least durable, while chemical and heat welding, as well as double-lock stitching, are most durable.
- Before you order, make sure you understand your local signage laws and permit requirements.
