Getting Back to Business: Temporary Graphics Solutions After COVID-19

Social Distancing Retail Graphics

As businesses reopen across the country, getting the word out on special services and promotions is more important than ever. It’s now about attracting the eyes of consumers for immediate sales so your business profits more quickly. This is where temporary graphics come in.  

Exterior and interior graphics are powerful ways to highlight temporary deals and information that are relevant to consumers as they spend more time outdoors and within shopping areas. The more relevant the messages are to their immediate needs, the more profitable you will be. This means adjusting them to fit the exact needs of the time.

We offer many types of temporary graphics to get these messages across. Each comes with unique benefits so you have the right options for your business.

Window Graphics

The first message a customer sees is what shows on the outside. This makes window signage a vital component of your marketing. The right messages show you are open for business and relay special promotions and services that are relevant to their current needs, drawing them in for immediate sales.

Temporary graphics are easy to change out, helping you maintain relevant messaging that responds to the immediate needs of customers. These graphics also help monetize your real estate so they work harder for your dollar.

Vehicle Graphics

Exterior communications go beyond storefronts. Your vehicles act as mobile billboards, advertising your goods and services where your customers are most. This type of marketing increases traffic from current customers as well as new ones, expanding your base. You can go where these individuals go most, keeping your brand and promotions top-of-mind wherever your customers are.

Temporary Vehicle Graphics

Interior Graphics

Interior graphics are another way of monetizing your store while welcoming back customers and introducing special promotions. They are also effective at directing flow, safely navigating customers as you restock and reorganize your business. Interior call-outs can be made at any size and shape and are easily removable.

Quick Service Restaurant Graphics

Floor Graphics

Similar to interior graphics, this signage points people in the right direction while offering creative messaging along the way that leads to more sales. These graphics are strong enough to last throughout your promotion and are easily removable without damaging floors.  

Social Distancing Floor Graphics

Reflective Graphics

Whether your message is on your vehicles or storefronts, you can ensure it stays noticeable day and night. Our reflective graphics are visible from headlights and street lamps and fit anywhere on your fleet of vehicles and your store windows. They are a great way to highlight messages you won’t want people to miss.

Best Businesses for Window and Retail Graphics

Storefront Summer Graphics

Storefront window graphics are a powerful way to advertise your business while monetizing your real estate. They help you promote immediate sales and promotions while evoking visuals and imagery that connect buyers to your brand.

We provide a wide range of businesses with window graphic solutions on an ongoing basis. Whether it is one business or a global chain of stores, we provide customized imagery to fit their needs.

Here is a look at some of the most common types of businesses utilizing vinyl wrapped advertising today.  

Grocery Stores

Grocery stores offer ample window space for sales and promotional messages that result in immediate sales. They also highlight specific products for stronger recognition. Often these businesses have windows expansive enough to catch the attention of both pedestrians and drivers for increased store traffic. These businesses promote a range of messages from specific items up to seasonal messaging promoting a broad range of products.

Department Stores

These businesses sell a wide range of products from clothing to houseware and electronics. By promoting their offerings with window graphics, they remind potential customers of the breadth of goods to attract a wider audience and promote the business as their one-stop-shop. Whether customers want new shoes or a new TV, the store graphics show the quality of the goods and the range of items they offer while promoting sales that come up along the way.

Apparel Stores

Window graphics are a smart way to promote clothing styles, especially new designs that hit the market. They often feature models who create a stronger connection to shoppers than a mannikin can, showing the types of clothing the company sells while promoting a lifestyle the business uses to attract buyers. From business attire all the way down to beach clothing and workout gear, window graphics are an ideal way to promote any type of apparel. And when sales hit, which often happens in this industry, these graphics are a vital way to bring in sidewalk traffic.  

Retail Department Store Window Graphics

Convenience Stores

Like department stores and grocery stores, convenience stores carry a wide range of foods and products and often have items on sale. Since the windows double as a way of showing the products they sell, many businesses have expansive glass along the front, which leaves plenty of opportunities to convey sales and special messages.

Eyeglass Stores

Promoting eyewear with storefront window graphics helps highlight new styles while showing the breadth of eyeglass designs to attract a wider audience. These graphics often feature people wearing the latest styles to promote a wide range of looks a buyer might enjoy.

Healthcare Facilities

This industry is all about health, and to get this message across, facilities often promote their brand with imagery of family scenes and outdoor activities. These visuals focus on individuals who are healthy in body and spirit. Like magazine ads and television advertisements, these window graphics are a powerful way of promoting health to attract customers. They grab the attention of viewers, and when these viewers want more detailed information, these expansive window spaces are an easy way to convey it.

New Construction Buildings and Sales Offices

New high-rises or residential developments often promote their designs and lifestyles alongside construction sites and on the windows of their sales offices. Windows provide ample space to show detailed graphics of the final designs, the range of floorplans, and the feeling owners will experience when living there. At the same time, they aid in directing readers inside sales offices for a closer look and a potential sale.

Financial Institutions

Much like healthcare facilities, financial institutions such as banks, loan offices, and credit providers like to promote positive feelings customers experience while using their services. This often means scenes of families and loved ones spending time together with less worry and more stability. Windows provide ample space to promote these messages as well as any deals designed for immediate interaction and sales.  

Coffee Store Window Graphics

Quick-Serve Restaurants

Nothing gets mouths watering quite like storefront window graphics. They provide an enticing, close-up look at our favorite foods and drinks, drawing us in. Windows are also effective at promoting specific menu items and temporary promotions a business wants to highlight. And when the signage adopts brand-specific colors and logos, they brighten up the location for even more recognition. 

Fitness Facilities

Window graphics are an easy way to promote the activities of fitness locations and the physical benefits they offer. Attractive models exercising and doing yoga shows customers they can look and feel like them, and that these facilities make it possible. These graphics work for a wide range of businesses such as gyms, boxing facilities, karate schools, and yoga studios.   

Electronic Stores.

Like clothing stores, electronic stores like to promote the latest gadgets as a way of enticing customers inside. From smartphones to tablets, computers, TV’s, and stereos, these businesses need to appear current and relevant, and window graphics are an ideal way to do it.

 

Whether your message is permanent or temporary, promoting goods and services on storefront windows is a powerful way to increased sales and brand recognition. Maintaining those messages consistently and on time helps keep your business running smoothly. Our temporary graphic solutions ensure you have the right messages out when you need them, reliably and consistently.

Proximity Marketing for Your Business

Roadvert Fleet Advertising

At Signature, our extensive work in fleet branding goes beyond exterior signage. We also offer advanced proximity marketing to help you discover the true reach and ROI on your branded vehicles. With Roadvert, we help you harness the power of your fleet and the mobile trend to stay a step ahead of the competition. This service helps you reach the right customers in the geographic areas they frequent most. Along the way, you receive in-depth information on users and trends that take your marketing efforts to the next level.

What is Roadvert?

Roadvert is a proximity marketing system that utilizes beacons on your vehicles to relay messages to surrounding smartphones and other Bluetooth devices in the form of texts, images, and videos via a mobile app. It rolls out your time-sensitive messages to a larger audience while supplying you with in-depth user data to keep your brand ahead of the competition.

We start by using census data, traffic data, and other information to create the ideal reach for your mobile campaigns. We then implement electronic beacons on your fleet of vehicles to communicate your messages to drivers and pedestrians through their smartphones. These beacons utilize a blend of Bluetooth and NFC (Near Field Communication) technology to ping surrounding electronic devices. Any nearby users who agree to receive proximity notifications are immediately connected. Your messages are then delivered instantly via text, images, or video via a mobile app.

What Proximity Marketing Does for You

Roadvert is a powerful way to relay important, time-sensitive messages to current and new customers where they are, broadening your reach while keeping your messaging and brand top-of-mind. It also provides in-depth back-end data to help you fine-tune your strategies for improved response.

These mobile interactions reach the maximum number of high-potential buyers instantly for immediate results. As these users respond to our system, we track impressions, daily reach, and views per person, for a more accurate understanding of responses, trends, and which messages are working best so you stay ahead of your competition.

By using your fleet of vehicles to get your messages out, you take advantage of your vehicle investments, monetizing them while spreading your messages with pinpoint effectiveness.

The Ideal Graphics Strategy for Proximity Marketing

The best messages excel at creating a strong call-to-action. These short, powerful messages are easy for customers to read on their devices. And since these users are out and about, they are more prone to taking advantage of immediate deals while your message is top-of-mind.

These messages will likely change over time. When they do, you can maintain consistent messaging with all your vehicles electronically and with your exterior signage. We offer temporary graphic solutions and professional installation to make changing your messaging fast and easy. Additionally, our brandRESPONSE system provides instant data on what messaging is displayed and broadcast from individual vehicles in each area of town and across the country, helping you manage workflow and avoid unforeseen issues.  

We Take Fleet Advertising to the Next Level

Our Roadvert system is just an example of the many services we offer. At Signature Graphics, we have the most successful and extensive experience in planning, managing, and executing large and small national fleet branding projects in the industry.

Our Team Is Ready To Tackle Your Project

Signature Graphics has been wrapping surfaces in vinyl since 1986, and our team of well trained professional installers will make sure that your imagery is flawless, durable and beautiful for the life of the product.

When it comes to graphics installation, there is no one right way to apply the product. When wrapping fleet vehicles, a staggering number of subtle variances makes our job a challenge, but we guarantee your satisfaction and we are very proud of our partnership with 3M, who manufactures the absolute best products for us to apply to your surfaces, and allow your brand to shine brightly above the rest.

At Signature Graphics, we understand the unique needs of our clients and we are proud to have facilitated the rise of many successful and recognizable brands. Our customer base agrees that their projects came to fruition as a result of our standard hands-on approach that relies on the input of the client as much as the expertise of our team.

We pride ourselves in our ability to creatively problem-solve with detail-based solutions that result in lasting, professional results.

Many Options For Vinyl Wrapped Advertising

The most ideal surface to apply vinyl to is a smooth, non-porous surface.

Glass provides a perfect canvas for which to apply vinyl, and windows that vinyl graphics are applied to make a great area to advertise your brand while also providing additional privacy for staff who might be working inside.

Metal painted with automotive paint is another ideal surface to use, and Fleet wraps encompass a good portion of our business at Signature. The surfaces of metals, glass, and treated, painted plastics used in auto manufacturing make a great surface for all kinds of interesting graphic applications. Keep in mind that any dents, scratches, and imperfections will not be covered, but will just look like a dent that has had a graphic applied to the surface of it.

Porous materials present the biggest challenge for the application of vinyl, but some porous surfaces are better than others. Sidewalks, as well as floors, while potentially textured and porous, may provide a great place for wayfinding graphics, or for additional promotional space to enhance branding.

Some types of treated wood and brick can be wrapped, even if they are textured. Brick is generally not the best choice, due to its reactions to moisture and temperature. Please consult our design experts when choosing a surface to apply an acrylic overlay on.

Rusted metal, peeling paint, or very rough, textured surfaces are all a bad choice, as are highly contorted objects with deep grooves or angles. Anything that will be exposed to very extreme changes in temperature is also not a candidate for vinyl graphics.

Lastly, it is not advisable to try to overlay vinyl onto unsealed wood, bare plywood, rubber or similar unstable surfaces, and some kinds of painted plywood. The adhesive that is used to apply the vinyl does not provide a lasting bond, and therefore the life of the overlay is shortened significantly.

The vinyl is only as good as the substrate it is applied to. This is especially true when the vinyl will be exposed to outdoor elements. Any surface that the adhesive will not readily stick to will be a poor choice for vinyl overlays. Unpainted wood or unpainted plastics do not provide an ideal surface – and wood can expand and contract with changes in temperature and moisture;  these should only be used for short-term projects, if at all.

How Signature Can Assist With Campus Navigation Challenges

Arkansas Bus Graphic

Creative Solutions To Combat Chaos

Designing a wayfinding system for campuses is not easy. Medical and educational complexes are labyrinths to the uninformed new visitors, and the nature of what these places provide brings new faces to visit them on a daily basis.

An easily understood and visually appealing system of directional signs and self-help tools can be put together with just a little knowledge of traffic flow within your campus coupled with the design knowledge of our talented team at Signature.

Know Your Audience

Getting a handle on the flow of foot traffic in and around the complex you will be creating wayfinding images for is an essential first step. Survey staff, students, or any group who are the primary daily commuters in your floor plan.

Post surveys to relevant people who will have valuable input on the best ways to get from point A to point B, including trouble areas like human logjams or difficult to access areas. Handicapped advisors will provide you with unique insight on important traffic issues that might get overlooked otherwise.

Make sure that anticipated problems are addressed in your survey, and leave room for contributors to provide their thoughts on any part of the project they might be able to provide insight for. Make sure the survey is brief enough to keep the viewer’s attention and provide a free way to submit it – via a self-addressed stamped envelope or with an easily accessed online survey.

Control The Flow of Autos

Follow your cohesive, predetermined design elements to begin laying out wayfinding signs for any automobile or bicycle traffic in and around your campus. If determining color choice and other useful visual cues is not your strong point, let our design team help you make a wayfinding layout that reflects your brand well and appeals to the public, engaging them visually and showing them where to go in a clear way.

If you are incorporating any virtual wayfinding elements like a digital map that can be accessed with a smart device, you can begin to include that into your design, notifying visitors of how to access that map. Parking garages, roadways and outdoor signage can be combined in your design, and we know how to apply vinyl ads to a wide range of surfaces to suit your needs.

When addressing the needs of the disabled, applying fleet graphics to any golf carts or passenger shuttles will add to your brand appeal while also increasing visibility and bringing emphasis to your efforts to provide equal.

Direct Pedestrians Safely Into Your Campus

Continuing with your planned design elements, begin to incorporate the signs that will lead commuters into the campus from parking areas, bus stops, bike parking, or mass transit stops. Hopefully, you have decided a way to best direct traffic to the different areas of your complex.

The creative use of visual cues and colors to represent different paths is a proven method for wayfinding. Once again, make sure that there are signs on buildings or pathways that direct visitors to any online assistance you are providing them.

Make sure your buildings are mapped out clearly for your visitors. Utilize floors as a place to mark a visual pathway to many different destinations, and consider providing kiosks with a point of reference clearly marked on an area map that can be strategically placed in high traffic areas.

Consider offering an information desk that is centrally located, near the main entryway, if you have not already provided one. Elevators should be clearly marked and differentiated from one another by using predetermined visual or color cues. Providing clarity to a new visitor is of the utmost importance when creating designs that are highly recognizable, practical, and (ideally) brand-forward.

Directing Them Into The Home Stretch

If your mapping system did its job, your visitors should be close to their intended destination. Make sure to consider applying graphic elements to elevator doors, to differentiate the floor numbers and prevent confusion.

In the cases of both educational and healthcare campuses, you will have the opportunity to incorporate the floor design with its specialty department. Our relationship with 3M means that you are guaranteed to have the very best, most durable graphic for your brand.

Custom floor wraps can guide guests in the right direction, we guarantee the quality and longevity of the wayfinding graphics that you place throughout the buildings of your campus.

Request a quote from us today and begin the process of installing an effective wayfinding system into your campus.

Porter House Coffee Graphics

What Is Brand Activation & Why Is It Important?

Brand Activation is the practice of engaging the public with your brand and its related imagery (logos, packaging colors, catchphrases, etc.) in places and events that create a positive experience for current and potential customers.

The goal of a brand activation campaign is to create brand recognition by offering thoughtfully designed activities and environments that showcase your brand within an emotionally uplifting milieu. It’s also about bringing your brand to life by creating experiences that can lead to long-term, deeply seated connections with the consumer.

By providing brand-sponsored public events, interactive online activities, or even snail mail-based activities – such as mail-in promotions for cash rewards or prizes (that can also be emblazoned with branded logos, catchphrases, and imagery) that serve to gain the public’s acceptance and create a deep connection to your product(s) and enhance your sales, as well as your image.

Stabilizing your company’s future as a “trusted brand name” in a highly competitive corporate climate becomes a tangible goal when using Brand Activation as a marketing tool.

Creative Ways To Activate Your Brand 

The concept of Brand Activation can seem confusing when including it in your marketing budget.

Historically, there have been many strong examples of its effective use, and one of the best is the brewery of a world-famous beer. This centuries-old brewery, located in Dublin, Ireland, utilizes Brand Activation in an extremely effective matter. The well-known brewhouse has an interactive, guided tour that is a popular tourist attraction. With a museum-like presentation, charming Irish docents lead visitors through engaging displays that illustrate the brewing process and familiarize the public with the history of the family who created and owned it for generations.

Let us at Signature Graphics inject immersive imagery and other thoughtful, creative elements into your launch event that can potentially lead to loyal client relationships with your brand. Our team can assist you with dozens of creative ways to use Brand Activation, depending upon your needs.

If you are in need of a visually stunning product or service launch, plan a regional or national brand-forward event to coincide with it. Dazzle the public with creatively displayed images, carefully chosen colors that can influence emotion, music, and other uplifting elements that they may later associate with your brand and how your brand.

One of the most effective methods to start with is to look at what your company already has in use, and update any generic or overlooked surfaces around you to advertise your brand. Lots of companies throw a lot of money into technology alone when updating their image, and overlook more traditional advertising, presented more creatively for an ever-changing public.

Some of the most successful companies have turned to innovation and creativity in advertising as the bedrock of a rewarding brand activation campaign. Let our team of creative professionals help design an immersive experience or environment for your brand. If your company owns a fleet of unbranded vehicles, one easy way to subtly insert your brand onto the streets and highways is achieved through the use of graphic advertisements.

We can help you utilize that blank space as an effective way to build your brand. As an added bonus, if you want realtime data to gauge the impact of your projects, Signature Graphics couples our brandRESPONSE technology with our highly competent team of professionals to help you activate your brand as efficiently as possible.

Trade Secrets of Producing Great Signage

Army Window SignageAny thriving business relies on rock-solid advertising. At Signature Graphics, we have a talented staff of professionals that know the in and outs of graphic design to make your brand stand out among the others.

Five Important Tips To Remember

1) Consider Signage Location

Any signs you will be producing will contrast with the background that they will be located in. Whether you’re putting a sign on the side of a parking garage, on the window of a building, or on a city bus, each setting must be considered when making color choices and laying out the composition of your design. Expect us to ask you these kinds of questions to make the correct decisions and make the biggest impact with your graphics.

2) Use Contrasting Color Schemes 

High contrast color will make the biggest visual impact in design. It will capture the eye and draw it in. Having a high contrast between your text and the background will increase readability in directional signage, outdoor wayfinding signage, and other roadside applications. Staying away from muted color schemes, in general, is a good idea when looking to produce stunning signage to attract attention.

3) Keep The Message On Point

Ads in publications, online, and on TV and film have the luxury of being able to go into great detail about what product or service is offered. On brand signs, however, it is important to keep your message brief and informative. Pare down the details regarding your product or services as much as possible while still retaining the message you need to convey. Our designers will help you make the design shine and deliver your message as effectively as possible, to the largest audience possible.

4) Use Fonts To Your Advantage

Take careful consideration of your fonts. Using simple lines and avoiding serif types will be the most readable way to go. The larger, the better when considering readability from a distance. Once again, contrasting your font color to your background is also highly recommended.

5) Consider Negative Space 

The best use of the limited space in question uses contrasting colors along with the effective use of negative space, and of clear wording that captures the imagination. By using the space you are working in a visually pleasing and thoughtful way, it helps to make your ads stand out in the crowd. 

Interesting use of negative space, and tapping into wayfinding psychology, is most effective when you are closely competing with other signage in close proximity. If you wish for your ads to break loose from the pack, analyzing neighboring ads can inform your teams on how to differentiate your brand in the minds of consumers.

Preparing Your Fleet for Graphic Wraps

Servpro Fleet Wrap PrepEver since the infancy of modern advertising, fleet graphics have existed to establish brand recognition. Catchy adverts were hand-painted on the sides of circus wagons and on the coaches of traveling salesmen. Fleet graphics have been utilizing public roadways in the marketing of brands to the public for hundreds of years. 

Modern fleet graphics are applied to every existing type of transport vehicle to sensibly maximize brand exposure. Signature provides your company, and your brand, with our extensive network of professionals to provide the best possible products and customer service available today. You can rely on our expertise and our products because we guarantee it!

Some Things To Consider When Planning Your Fleet Graphics

First and foremost, you should take a good look at the availability and condition of the vehicles you will be having graphics applied to. 

In addition, have the following information ready in preparation for your customized fleet graphics:

  • How many vehicles will be wrapped?
  • How much of your fleet can you afford to take out of circulation while wraps are applied?
  • Are the surfaces of your vehicles clean – taking into account dents, scratches or less than perfect surfaces?
  • Do you have suitable indoor space for wraps to be applied?
  • Make, model, year and colors of the vehicles being wrapped.

You can view our planning kit for more detailed information on preparing your fleet for graphics. Please contact us if you have any questions regarding the information-gathering portion of the process.

Selecting An Installer With A Quality Product

We pride ourselves at Signature for using top of the line 3M film for flawless, full coverage application. 3M backs our company’s warranty, and our exclusive use of their overlaminates and graphic films to provide the best product available.

Most installations come with a 7-year MCS warranty, which is the single best that is available in the fleet graphics industry: Signature alone offers that iron-clad commitment to quality. 

Treat Each Vehicle Individually – Design, Installation and Maintenance Tracking is Key

Fleet graphics are a sensible way to drive the brand value up while driving cost-per-acquisition down, and our design team is there to assist you in every detail of the process, from the conceptual phase to the proof/prototype phase, to the application of the custom film to your fleet. 

After completion of your brand’s custom fleet designs, we will provide you full-color proofs for every vehicle type you own to examine before proceeding with the application process. For large re-brands, a full prototype will be applied to a sample vehicle to serve as a full-scale sample of the finished fleet for your approval.

Introducing brandRESPONSE For Real-Time Project Management

Hire A Professional To Brand Your Corporate Environment

California Milk Wall Environmental BrandingEven in open-plan workplaces, constant use of computers can contribute to workplace-related depression and feelings of isolation among staff. When you look at all the ways that a depressing work area can drag down your business, making a dynamic and uplifting workplace becomes a priority in keeping an edge on productivity and creating a desirable, happy place to work. As a bonus, it presents an opportunity to inject your brand into your office layout, and also create an interactive touchpoint to interact with the public by effectively utilizing Environmental branding.

Signature’s Four-Step Approach To A Successful Corporate Environment

A key to success in branding a corporate environment is to have an unbiased, professional eye when planning and implementing the design of workplaces: the same rule applies if you are tasked to overhaul a less than uplifting corporate office, or to newly design a brand new multi-location project such as a chain of restaurants or nationwide retail outlets. 

At Signature Graphics, we have identified 4-steps that simplify the difficult task of creating a dynamic workspace. An experienced team of design professionals is hands-down the best choice when laying out the blueprint for a successful workspace that satisfies the demands of both clients and employees, while at the same time representing your brand accurately, and in a way that conveys a solid sense of your company’s identity to the world around it.

Our trained consultants will estimate your needs at the corporate level and at each re-branded multi-location area and plan the project to order, maintaining strict deadlines to maintain time constraints at each location. Your input is welcome and encouraged during each stage. Our large footprint allows us to provide you with a vast amount of collective knowledge and resources when planning and implementing projects of wide scope.

Step 1: Information Gathering to build your environmental branding

We efficiently collect pertinent data at every location, including the surfaces available for signage and creative elements to best represent your company’s vision in a way that is appropriately stimulating to consumers and workers alike.

Step 2: Making Your Vision A Reality

Signature takes the conceptual plans that were carefully designed in step 1 and uses our state of the art 120,000 sq. foot facility to build dynamic elements for your space. Signature has unique access to incorporate hundreds of construction and design materials; our skilled staff is adept at multiple manufacturing processes to make into reality unique environmental and design elements to make your brand stand out from the pack.

Step 3: Rollout

Because of our company’s considerable and widespread resources, Signature Graphics can quickly and expertly install and launch messaging for a successful rollout of your brand. We are skilled at the focused implementation of one key location, or of a highly orchestrated, simultaneous storefront launch of multiple units over a vast geographical area.

Step 4: Project Management and Launch

With an expert focus on time and budget constraints, and attentive to every detail, our Project Management Team has a single goal: to effectively implement a high-profile launch of your newly branded locations. We are experts at nationwide rollouts of franchised businesses, and can just as easily provide wholehearted attention to a single storefront.
