Signs

Our signs are a very effect­ive way of advertising.

It is import­ant to see your street sign as a part of your advert­ising cam­paign. Many people are shocked when they find out the price of a sign, but you must not for­get that the sign is made out of high qual­ity mater­i­als and even though we guar­an­tee 5 years, the signs usu­ally last much longer. Think about all the people passing by your premises every day. They are all affected by your busi­ness sign advert. It is also an import­ant part of your cor­por­ate identity.

Let’s com­pare a sign to an advert in a local free magazine. The price of 90€ for a quarter of the page per issue is quite com­mon price to pay for an advert in a peri­odic with a two month period. You get about 10% dis­count if you sub­scribe for a longer period of time. Let say you are inter­ested in 3 issues.

Price = 3×90 — 10% = 243.00 €

So for a price of 243.00 € you get about 5000 people to see your advert for a period of 3 issues. That’s not bad, is it? Now for the same money you can have a sign, which is going to last for a min­imum 5 years and how many people will see it? That depends only on the loc­a­tion, where you choose to put it up.

What does it take to make a sign?

There are sev­eral stages in the pro­cess of mak­ing a sign. Let’s have a look at them step by step.

  1. First of all we need to know, what size your sign will be? What col­ours are you com­pany col­ours and what do you want writ­ten or depic­ted on the sign.
  2. With all this inform­a­tion in mind we can then design a sign on the com­puter. Fol­low­ing that we will show the design to you and let you to sug­gest any changes and final touches.
  3. In next step we need to pre­pare the design for our vinyl cut­ting plot­ter. Cut it out and weed out all the unne­ces­sary bits of vinyl.
  4. We apply the vinyl on the mater­ial of your selec­tion. This could be a plastic board, metal sheet, per­plex glass or even the front win­dow of your shop. The only con­di­tion is, the sur­face must be smooth. clean, dry and grease free.
  5. Install­a­tion at the site involves mount­ing the sign in a secure and safe way and is done by our team of professionals.
