The largest billboard-sized area your company will probably ever has access to is completely free. The front of your business is the best place to start for any advertising campaign. So many businesses have no more than a small business sign with their name and possibly a logo facing the street. But in reality the canvas available for promotional marketing is much, much larger than that! Everything inch of the front of your business communicates something to your potential customers that are continuously driving and walking by. Your window displays, the lighting (on both the outside of the building and the lighting coming through the window onto the street at night), and any other banners or signs that are hung, create curiosity as to what is going on inside, behind walls and window. How much interest that is created is up to you. This is why outdoor advertisements are so important in the health and growth of a business, even more particularly for a small business which usually has more limited funds in an outdoor advertising budget and promotional marketing campaign.

Custom Banners and Signs
The best way to take complete advantage of a business’ free ad space is by working with a sign company to design and produce custom banners and signs. Obviously, working with a professional sign company will help ensure that your new custom designed banner or sign for your company branding strategy is as effective as possible. Here are some thoughts to get the creative juices geared up to help you end up with a small business sign that blows your new customers right on in through the front door.

– Custom banners and signs should bear more than your business name, that sign should already be hung. Whatever sign company you choose to work with should help you design a sign that possible leaves off your business name entirely.

– A promotional marketing sign should not be too wordy; in this case more is not necessarily better. Those driving (anywhere from 30 mph to 60 plus mph depending on where you are located) by need to be able to fully understand the message printed small business signs.

– The fewer the words, the less likely potential customers are to loose interest and more likely to fully process all that you are trying to communicate. Short and sweet is the key.

– Simple and clean cut is also better than too many graphics or collage of pictures. Stick with few graphics and logos. Only enough to reinforce company branding on your custom banners and signs. Steer clear or clutter and “busy” images.

– Even a good sign can do its job if it is blocked from view. Take the time to figure out the best vantage point for your custom banners and signs for those who should be reading them: potential customers who are just driving by right now.

– The placing of your new promotional marketing tool should not be over or under whelmed by its environment either. It should not over power your store-front, but it also shouldn’t get “lost” or hidden under a tree.
