What
to Look for in a Sign Company
Shopping
for a company that builds signs is much the same as shopping for any
other service. Examine the company’s experience. Find out what
people are saying about the company. Does the company have a
respectable web presence with a list of testimonials and services or
products? Does the company offer a free estimate? Is the company in
good standing with their local Better Business Bureau?
Online Yellow Pages and social media venues may also be able to offer insights about the company in question. Does the company hire and train qualified people? Part-time workers may be an indication the company is wanting for business. Pricing, follow up, and customer service are also key considerations. Experience in handling sign permits may be a challenge for a small company, but far easier with larger, experienced companies. These are general things to look for, but it can mean the difference between partnering with success or failure.
Materials
Used
A
sign’s longevity will depend on the materials used. Another
consideration is how easy it will be to maintain the signage. The
company should take care in installing signs, outside, that can
withstand all types of weather and temperatures. It largely depends
on the business and the owner’s unique communication needs.
Expect
Top Customer Service
Look
for companies that can provide a full array of services that include
reprographic and digital printing. Companies that can successfully
work with both large and small businesses are preferable. Reliability
and fast turnaround times are also important for the business owner.
Customer service is still king, regardless of the business or
industry.
