Contact Sign of the Times
I would love to discuss your sign needs and ideas but I'm sure most of you really want to know, "How much will it cost?". In order to price your sign there are some things to include in your message:
Some thoughts on your sign design to consider.
If it's a decorative piece then most of this won't matter but if your sign is for a business or so people can find your location then the size is important. Font size is relative to the overall size of the sign, the bigger the sign, the bigger the font can be. As you are out and about, take a look at signs while driving, you will find you have seconds to take them in. In that very brief time, what did you get from the sign? Do you understand the message right away?
I often tell my customers that websites and phone numbers are not a very functional thing to have on a sign. Who can remember it while driving by at 50? Everyone has a smart phone these days, 50% of all searches now are done by voice through Siri or Alexa and the like. Your business name and a clear understanding of what your business is about is key to moving potential customers to the next step, doing business with you.
- Size of the sign
- Carved one or two sides
- Will it be hung outdoors or inside
- Material preference if you know what you would like it made with, if not no worries, we will figure that out together.
- What do you want the sign to say

Small Businesses
As a small business owner, you need to invest in marketing strategies that drive profitable outcomes to help scale your company. You may think that signage doesn’t fit into the marketing mix. But a recent FedEx survey concluded that “about 67% of the consumers said they had purchased a product or service because a sign caught their eye”. And these were the ones that they surveyed.
Signage may not be top of the marketing mindset, but business signs are extremely important for small businesses.
