When you decide to purchase your sign there are a few things to consider. Your sign will represent your business. No matter what type of sign you purchase, it will be the first impression the public will have of your company.

SIZE AND VISIBILITY: How big does your sign need to be to be visible from the street? From across the parking lot? From the other side of a store or mall?

STYLE AND LAYOUT: How your sign looks is also important. A sign must first be able to catch a viewer's eye so that he or she will want to read the sign's contents. The number of colors a sign has, the way type and graphics are laid out, and even the typestyle used is important. Below is a color chart that will help you see what letter and background colors work best to attract attention.

LONGEVITY: How long your sign needs to last is a major factor in determining the investment in your sign.
