Attract your audience with external signage
Studies show it can take between two and 30 seconds to form a first impression, so external signage needs to be attractive and engaging to be remembered. As the first point of contact for your customers or visitors, your signage needs to strike the right balance between practicality and beauty.
Successful signage should accurately represent your brand identity, speak to your target audience, and fulfil a practical purpose, whether that is to inform, to direct, or to inspire an action. Choosing high-quality materials and production methods is also important for durability as well as aesthetics, while working with the right designers will ensure your vision is realised to its full potential.
Sleek, sharp, and strong signage can enhance the visitor experience and leave a lasting impression, but clear communication is crucial to success. Take some time to consider what the main purpose will be – are you aiming to promote your brand, share key information, or direct your customers?
As it is likely to be the first interaction between customers and a business, signage needs to be easy to access, read and understand, otherwise it can lead to mixed or even negative messages. Not only should the visuals be appropriate for purpose, but the signage itself needs to be well maintained.
Faded or damaged displays suggest the products or services provided by the company may be inferior, while unclear directions can make visitors feel lost, quite literally! An absence of signage can be just as damaging, with nearly 60% of consumers discouraged from using a business without signs.
