No business, no matter how great the product or service is, will ever be successful without customers. The right kind of signs can go a long way toward creating buzz about your business. This is particularly important when your business is in its fledgling stages. Make some noise on the scene and let customers know you are there! There are actually many ways that the right signage can help drive traffic through your doors. And after all, that’s why you are in business in the first place, right? Here, we’ll take a look at some of the best reasons to ensure your business has great signage.
Promoting your promos
If you are having a sale, you’ll want people to know about it. To do that, create signs that will entice your customers to want to come through your doors to find out more. For example, if you are a café and you want to advertise your daily specials (which, by their very nature, change every day) one of the best things you can do is to have a sign that people can use as a point of reference each day to find out what the specials are. Even regular customers who may not otherwise order the special might be enticed to do so if your sign makes the offer attractive.
Herald your events
Are you having a big clearance sale? A “back to school” promotion event? A grand opening? Bring as many customers to these events as possible by spreading the word through the signs you post. This can be something as small as a sign in your window or something as big as a billboard.
Give people the 411
It can be a challenge to answer the same questions a million times, even if those questions are being asked by well-meaning customers. A much more efficient way to convey information is through informative signs. Informative signs can convey any kind of information about your business, from business hours to employee policies to the daily specials and even your entire menu!
Visual enticement
One of the best uses for signs is to visually entice potential customers to buy what you are selling. People are very visual, and beautiful, tantalizing images can inspire people to buy. Take for example a fast-food restaurant. Picture yourself standing in line, unsure what to order. Suddenly, you notice a poster featuring a delicious-looking burger, glistening with grill marks and dripping with cheese. All at once, your taste bud have made the decision for you! Now, imagine that same burger being described in one word: Cheeseburger. Although technically accurate, it’s not a very enticing description. That is the power of visual signage: The power to persuade.
