View outdoor retail signage as your big introduction <\/strong><\/h2>\nIf you\u2019re an established brand with a recognizable logo, you have a leg up when it comes to outdoor signage. But a mom and pop store with a limited marketing budget must work harder to be seen. Our advice: Keep it top of mind that customers need to know who you are and what you do in seconds.<\/p>\n
There are many ways to capture attention with outdoor signage. If you\u2019re rebranding or just opening up, think of what people need to know when they see your sign. For some businesses, knowing what type of service or product is inside is the priority. Others can employ a little whimsy with a catchy name and font.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some signs tell you exactly what to expect without fancy lettering. They\u2019re bold, clear and contrast against their backgrounds. Others blend a unique blocky font to help the letters with other light neutral colors around it, like the one you see here. You know it\u2019s a brewery, but the classy, hip look invites curiosity.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nPower up sidewalk signs<\/strong><\/h2>\nRetail customers could be broken down into these two groups: those who found the business through a referral or marketing outreach, and those who simply wandered in. So, what convinced that latter group to stop by? There are probably many reasons people just wander in, but don\u2019t underestimate the power of sidewalk retail signs to help usher the curious through your doors.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\nSome retailers use a classic A-frame sign to tout a sale or new product. There are so many other ways to be creative beyond that old A-frame. A lightweight acrylic poster stand<\/a> encasing a flashy shot of a best-selling item can draw them in, too. The stand can also be just enough to get someone to turn their head toward your store to showcase an amazing window display<\/a>. You can also try an eye-catching custom feather flag display<\/a> with your company\u2019s branding on it. Some are as tall as 15 feet, so drivers and people farther away will notice your store, too!<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n\nUse color pops inside<\/strong><\/h2>\nColor is key when it comes to indoor retail signage. Whether you want to power up that end cap or window display, or pull the customer\u2019s eyes across the room to a sales rack, choose a color that contrasts with what\u2019s around it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Notice how the red in this photo, even in small doses, catches your attention. You can use other bold colors, such as today\u2019s popular cool teals, aquas and even some deep yellows. To magnify the color you can also encase the sign in a simple black metal stand<\/a>. The black border of the frame helps the sign\u2019s color and message stand out.<\/p>\n <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nTry a unique shape or a simple statement<\/strong><\/h2>\nSometimes you need an unconventional approach, and a uniquely shaped framed sign can do the trick. This unique acrylic floor sign holder<\/a> has a swiveled top to capture attention and allow the business owner to point customers to hot items, sales and irresistible displays.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\nAnd don\u2019t overlook the power of a simple word. This block, used in our work with Verizon Wireless<\/a>, tells customers where to find a great gift for dad. All it took was one word in bold letters!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n

<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n\nDeck the countertops with retail signage for impulse buys<\/strong><\/h2>\nYour check-out stand is the opportunity to add to the final bill with impulse purchases or complementary products. Catchy displays and cross-merchandising<\/a> entice, but good retail signage starts important sales conversations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
For example, use a countertop chalkboard sign<\/a> to mention a new service or product. Make sure the cashier is knowledgeable on the topic so that he or she can guide the customer through an additional sale.<\/p>\nAnd let\u2019s remember small well-placed, signage in these busy areas. Think of restaurants, where small acrylic sign holders<\/a> on tables highlight happy hour and other specials. You can even use a counter mat<\/a> near the register for messaging as well.
