The COVID-19 pandemic has come and gone. Now what? It's time to reopen! But how do you tell your customers that you are finally ready to start servicing their every need once again? The best way to do so is by bringing their attention to the fact that you are back in business. And there's no better way to do that than by using high-quality custom signage to get the job done.

Grab Customer’s Attention of Using High-quality Signage for Reopening

When a company is closed for business, it oftentimes looks as if nothing is going on at their physical location. The last thing you want to do is make your business look as if its doors are still closed to the public. Thus, your primary goal as a business owner looking to restart your operations is to make your customers aware of the fact that your business is now completely operational. Any step you can take to make your business look as if it's operating at full steam should be implemented immediately to fully convince your customers that your business is itching to go and ready to service their needs.

We have found that one of the best ways to grab the attention of customers is through the use of high-quality signage with brightly colored graphics. Custom printed graphics on signage that's designed to grab the attention of everyone who passes by will allow for your customers to instantly recognize the fact that you are finally back in business.

New Signage for Reopening

Not every business is the same though, and your specific marketing budget will quite likely be the determining factor depicting which types of signage are best for your company. For this reason, the first step you will want to take is that of completing a thorough assessment of your current marketing needs. Budgeting for marketing is always fairly challenging due to the large number of unknown factors that are usually involved, but we have intimate knowledge of the returns businesses typically generate from their custom signage. In fact, we have seen businesses generate anywhere from three to ten times the amount of money they spend on their custom signage depending on the specific solutions that are chosen. Thus, the more money you are able to allocate to this particular marketing medium, the larger will be the gains you should ultimately see in the long run.

Of course, if you already have usable signage on hand, there is certainly no reason to purchase even more. You can easily offset your marketing budget through the use of preexisting signage to significantly reduce your marketing costs in these trying times. Thus, the more signage you are able to scrap together from your storage bins, the better off will be your overall marketing efforts. We highly recommend that customers form a complete inventory of their existing advertising signage so they know exactly what they need to further advertise the reopening of their businesses.

Due to the unique nature of the challenges posed by the COVID-19 lockdowns in particular, it would be a mistake to believe that your pre-existing signage will be enough to cover all of your marketing efforts. Old and outdated signs might not even be appropriate anymore given the current economic conditions. Therefore, you should thoroughly review not only the present condition of preexisting signage, but you should also review the content and the messaging your signage portrays. While your business may indeed be suffering at present due to the carnage wreaked by the coronavirus shutdowns, other people too are also facing challenging times. By taking this into consideration while creating your marketing strategy, you will ultimately be able to purchase signage which will better resonate with your customer base.

One of the key factors you will want to take into consideration when reviewing the quality of your existing signage is whether or not it accurately reflects the state of your business. Many businesses have recently made significant changes to the way they are handling the demands of their customers, and it is important that you keep your customers properly informed of any changes that have been made to your own business in order to better service their needs.

Benefits of Custom Signage for Reopening

We create custom signage to suit any occasion. Thus, if your business has recently undergone significant changes to its operations, we can create signage that will fully reflect these changes to instantly educate your customer base about how your company is presently doing business. If your business used to regularly service the needs of customers in a storefront, but you are now having to service their needs while using a drive-thru only setup, then we can create signage that will allow for them to instantly recognize this fact. Any old signage that indicates customers should enter a store to be serviced should be temporarily sidelined and replaced with new signs that clearly indicate exactly how your business has changed in recent weeks. While these simple changes may be obvious to you, your customers might not be entirely aware of any changes that have recently affected your business in particular. The sooner are you able to inform them about these changes using clearly marked signs that have been customized specifically for your business, the more successful will be your marketing efforts during the economic recovery.

While obvious changes like making the switch to a drive-thru only operation might make new signage absolutely necessary, it's important to remember that every change that has been made to your business operations should be made known to your customer base. If your business is now only servicing the needs of customers for a limited number of hours each day for instance, it's essential that you inform them of these changes. Therefore, new signage that clearly marks your company's hours of operation will certainly make for an excellent investment as you attempt to cope with the rapidly changing environment that has been created by this recent pandemic. Other changes you will definitely also want to make known to your customers are any changes to the products and services you are offering to further make it easier for them to better understand how your business can presently service their needs.

Custom Feather Flags

Now open feather flags provide for one of the easiest ways to make this particular announcement known to all of your customers. Feather flags are a highly visible form of signage due to their tall stature, but they also wave nicely in the wind to attract further attention from people passing by.

For instance, if you are reopening a salon, you can purchase feather flags with the word "Salon" clearly printed across their front to tell potential customers exactly what kind of services your newly reopened business has to offer.
