Three Custom Outdoor Business Designs to Consider

Signs are expressions of businesses. They are the first source of information customers use to gain insight about a business. A sign doesn’t say much, but it provides a visual attraction to potential customers.

Everything from the font to the choice of color plays a part in getting your message across to your target market. It not only decorates the building but also helps create an impression. Many brick and mortar businesses rely on outdoor signs to catch people’s attention.

Creating your first custom outdoor business design could be difficult. You may not be aware of the many types of signs that exist, or which of them are best suited for your business.

To help you, here are three custom outdoor designs to consider.

Illuminated Signs

We have all seen glowing signs that light up during the night – it adds a vibrant flavor to your outdoor business sign.

Illuminated signs light up during the night, and stay off during the day, which make them a cheaper alternative to backlit signs. However, they require maintenance. LEDs are cheaper than traditional bulbs, but they do cost money. Therefore, it is recommended to find sign makers who provide high-quality solutions.

Monument Signs

These signs carry a low profile. They get installed on the ground at entrances. Materials used to build monument signs range from brick, steel, concrete, wood, or acrylic.

Ideal installation venues include entrances of apartments, business complexes, parks, and more. It may contain a list of tenants/businesses that reside in the complex. For example, a monument sign for a hospital that lists all the facilities available in the building.

Blade Signs

Ever walked down a sidewalk and saw a sign extending from a wall? That’s a blade sign. In a nutshell, blade signs take up relatively less space. They’re installed perpendicular to the flow of traffic on sidewalks to help pedestrians locate a business. It is ideal for shops in malls and restaurants in a public space with a lot of other restaurants.
