Our fantastic sign designer, right here at The Sign Guy, specializes in design and artwork for business signs, and he is ready to give you an inside look at the importance of sign design. In a market where your advertisements can make or break your business, make certain that your sign in Asheville is fun, creative, and best in show, while accurately representing your business.

Marketing & Design Aspects Considered By a Sign Designer:

  • Sign designers consider your sign as the face of your company. Together, you will discuss important issues such as marketing goals, sign placement, and your company’s intended message, in order to determine the best design to represent your business.
  • Color & Psychology: Through color research, we now know that colors influence people psychologically. For example, greens and blues are associated with nature, and they are tranquil and calming. Orange, red and yellow are upbeat colors which exhibit warmth, energy, and excitement. A sign designer can help you establish the energy your business wants to give off through the appropriate selection of colors.
  • Catchy Contrast To Attract Customers: Sign designers establish the colors that are most suitable for you business, but they also know how to apply those colors. Put simply, light colors against a dark backdrop, or vice versa, will catch the eye of a customer, particularly potential new customers.
  • Selecting the right graphics for your business is just as important as color selection. Our sign designer has this down to a science and will select and create graphics or artwork that best represent your company’s image.

Vehicle wraps are a hot item nowadays. To be sure, a full wrap involves careful planning, exact focal points, and without question is a front cabin investment. However, partial wraps or well-designed vehicle lettering and graphics can enhance and promote with tighter budgets and still achieve an effective result.

Lettering your primary vehicles just makes good sense. Vehicles must be properly cleaned and prepared before graphics can be applied.

Advertise Efficiently

Advertising of this type should always quickly tell two things: Who you are and What you are doing. And, having said that, we come to the crux of the problem and two dilemmas. Is my name more important than what I do? For, the most part, I favor what would describe your business in one, or at best, two words. Than make that the primary focus of your vehicle displays.

Color is absolutely important. If a vehicle is white, and you use black lettering it will have good contrast and be seen, yet employing the primary and secondary colors (both as lettering and reversals) bring all to life.

Per dollar value of vehicle lettering and graphics plus the impact of a moving or still ad, makes for a powerful and sure value.Let The Sign Guy help you to achieve the uniform and beneficial results you desire.
