Yard Signs: 5 Things to Keep in Mind

Yard signs are an excellent way to promote your business or event. They are affordable, versatile, and easy to set up. You can use them to advertise a sale, direct traffic to your store or office, or promote an upcoming event. Here are 5 things to keep in mind for your next order of yard signs!

#1: Use them as directional signs

If you’re having a sale at your store or hosting an event, use yard signs to direct traffic to your location. Gain the most visibility by putting them up at key intersections near your business. Just make sure to include clear directional indicators (i.e. arrows, verbiage, photos) so people can easily find their way.

#2: Place them in high-traffic areas

If you want to get maximum exposure for your yard sign, place it in a high-traffic area like a busy intersection or near a popular park or shopping center. People driving by will be sure to see it and remember your message. Anywhere you can place signs where there is foot traffic is great, too. The slower that people pass by means the more opportunity they’ll have to read your message.

#3: Get creative with the design

Your yard signs don’t have to be boring! Get creative with the design and make it stand out from the rest. Use bright colors and eye-catching graphics to grab attention. And don’t forget to include your logo, website and/or social media so people can learn more about you online.

#4: Put them up early and leave them up late

The sooner you put up your yard sign, the better! Put it up a couple weeks before your event or sale so people have time to see it and plan their visit. And don’t take it down too soon afterwards – leave it up for a few days so people who missed it the first time around will still have a chance to see it.

#5: Use multiple signs

One yard sign might not be enough to get the word out about your event or sale – consider using multiple signs placed strategically around town. You can also consider using a few different designs so people will really take notice. Super “yard signers” will even spread out four or five signs every few yards so the message can’t be missed.

No matter what you have planned, yard signs are an excellent way to promote your business or event! They are affordable, versatile, and easy to set up, helping you advertise a sale, direct traffic, or promote an upcoming event! Get creative with your design and make sure to put them in high-traffic areas for maximum exposure!
