Why are outdoor business signs important?

Unique, custom-made, durable outdoor signs can really make a difference when a business wants to get noticed. Its eye-catching, branding appeal can increase foot traffic and make a difference to the bottom line.

Types Of Outdoor Business Signs

  • Rigid Metal Signs to stand up in any kind of weather
  • Magnetic signs make vehicles into roving billboards
  • Portable metal composite signs with stands can be placed outside businesses for extra visibility
  • Banners made of vinyl, polyester fabric, or canvas can include sewn hems and grommets for hanging
  • Plastic Signs can be used both indoors and outdoors.
  • Backdrops and step and repeat banners for special events provide both atmosphere and practical usage
  • Neon signs that light up and bring attention to any business
  • Window signs that post business hours inform customers
  • Durable car bumper stickers for outdoor signs that are mobile

Full-color outdoor signage is a crucial branding tool for businesses and organizations to attract eyeballs and make impressions that last.

Personalized outdoor business signs not only can help improve brand awareness, but it can help brand new prospective customers find your business, while simultaneously boosting impulse sales.

For special events, outdoor signage can create a party atmosphere that draws passing traffic in with vibrancy.

Outdoor Signage – Metal Vs. Plastic

Rigid metal signs can be made of standard aluminum, brushed aluminum, or reflective aluminum.

Plastic outdoor signs are a lower-cost alternative to metal signs. They are both versatile and durable because they can be used indoors and outdoors. These signs are perfect for directional signage, real estate signage, trade show signage, and architectural signage. Custom shaped plastic outdoor business signs can be hung outside storefronts or mounted against walls.

Magnetic signs are reusable and perfect for vehicles. They are durable, wind tested and fade resistant.

Banners

Fabric banners can be printed on washable, wrinkle resistant polyester or for extra outdoor durability, opt for fade resistant custom vinyl banners. Grommets and welded hems can be included on either type.

Custom pole banners can be placed outdoors between poles on lamp or light posts. They are secured by fiberglass polls with end caps, two rust resistant mounting brackets and adjustable steel bands.

Hemmed pole pockets can be added, as well as grommets placed on all four corners of the banner. This allows installation of the banner to be tied more securely with cable or zip ties.

For trade shows and special events, you can’t beat step and repeat banners which are used as backdrops for taking photos. Poles, a stand, and a carrying case can be included for easy set up and break down.

How To Choose An Outdoor Sign Company

TIP: When looking for and choosing an outdoor sign company to work with, always check to make sure that the business has a proven track record in the industry. Look for online reviews to make sure that pleasing their customers is their number one priority. It’s tempting to go after a low-priced product from an outdoor sign company when trying to stay within budget but be aware that there are companies online that offer low-cost product for a reason. That usually means it is because the quality will be compromised. If outdoor signs are low quality, that will reflect poorly upon the business. While price shopping is a necessity these days, professionalism should always be upheld by using quality materials that last.

We absolutely loved working with Nova. The whole process was streamlined, easy, and incredibly quick, especially considering how last-minute our request was. Everything was handled so seamlessly, and the final result was perfect. I almost don’t want to say how great they are because I’d rather gatekeep them for ourselves, but they truly deserve the praise. We’ll absolutely be using Nova again.

Literal lifesaver and absolutely top of the class in customer service and communication. We had a rush order because, somehow, even the backup we had planned didn't arrive in time. At 4 pm on Friday, I was frantically calling local printing stores, and I was getting not only "No," but even scoffs. Nova picked up my call, and then we were done with all the way to proofing by 5:30 pm. The next morning, the order was delivered. Nothing short of amazing!
