Focal Point


Every form of advertising, to be effective, must have a focal point. Whether you use a brand, picture, logo or simply your product, idea or service, a focal point is essential. An easy way to accomplish that is to boil your ad down to one or two words. SIGNS is the core of what I do and that is the message I want to convey before a byline or related info. A cute of catchy name can be helpful, yet to be truly effective, it should efficiently reveal your business or promotion. Too much copy will quickly weaken your presentation.

Use caution with acronyms, like ABC or an icon which does not generate what you are doing or who you are. You need a focal point!

Good layout or design, color and style will compliment your business or product. Fonts are a part of the mix, too. Still the bottom line, as well as, every part of your ad must be able to allow your client to know your focus.

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.
