"The Internet doesn't close for business at 5 O'clock … And neither do we!"
Tim Harrelson, Hands-On CEO of SignsRus.com

Are You Sick And Tired Of Dealing With Sign Shops Who Only Give Lip Service To Customer Service?

Don't you hate feeling like your business isn't appreciated when you have to wait so long for answers?

When you have questions about custom signs, full-color graphics or vinyl banners, you need answers on-the-spot so you can make timely decisions. And if you're under a pressing deadline, it's even more critical to get your sign questions answered right away so you can put your mind at ease.

Unfortunately, getting the answers or quotes you need - when you need them the most - can be surprisingly difficult

Especially if it's already after hours or on the weekend when sign and banner shops are normally closed. However, we're not exactly normal because the internet doesn't close for business at 5 o'clock …

And neither do we.

We’re open for business 7 days a week from 8:30 am to 12 midnight (EST) to answer your questions and provide specific product recommendations upon request.

The right questions will help you get crystal clear about what you really want … and need

By getting your answers to a few specific questions, we can help you zero in on the products that are ideally suited to fit your unique, individual needs. And if you're on a tight budget, we'll be happy to explain the pros and cons of lower priced alternatives as well.

Before I forget my manners though, you may already have a question or two for us. So let's address your questions first, shall we?

What is the best way to get your sign questions answered?

That actually depends on your personal preference. Since all consultations are completely free with no obligation, which option suits you the best?

Sign-Chat allows you to instantly type messages from your computer directly to ours. As soon as we see (or hear) your message pop up on our monitor, we're typing right back to you over a secure channel, just like the banks use.

Perhaps the biggest reason Sign-Chat has become so popular though is because you have the flexibility to get your questions answered in a "safe zone", without any sales pressure. Our clients tell us it's a nice touch to our Customer Service.
1-800-899-6272 - The telephone is perfect for those who prefer the speed of a regular conversation over typing.
E-mail is the preferred way to do business by a growing number of our clients. Our e-mail response system is a fast and convenient way to:
- Ask Questions

"When my local sign shop dropped the ball, I couldn't believe I was actually able to find somebody open on a Sunday to help me out of a jam!"

Custom Vinyl sign Banner Ordered Online With my big event a week away, I had placed my order for some full-color vinyl banners with another sign company. They promised me the vinyl banners would be ready to pick up on Saturday. But when I called, all I got was voice mail. So I decided to drive on over to see what was going on. The sign business was closed, just as I suspected.

Talk about mad! I was furious because these custom banner signs were an essential part of our big event on Monday night and they knew it!

Unfortunately, everyone else I tried in the phone book was closed too. I was starting to run out of time!

The only other option I could think of was to search the internet and see if I could find someone to help me. When I found SignsRus.com, I was just sitting there scanning the website when Tim popped up on live chat and asked me if I had any questions.

"Yes!"

When I told Tim what I needed, he came up with a great idea. Not only would he get all three digital banners printed for me, he could put them on a Greyhound Bus for morning delivery since all the other carriers were closed on Sunday. That was at 3:03 pm. Within five hours, Tim called to tell me my custom banners were printed, packaged and on the bus.

"What a relief!"

And my event? It was a huge success due in no small part to Tim and his team at SignsRus.com. I couldn't have been happier with how my custom banner signs turned out. The quality and colors were perfect. All this, and I didn't even have to pay a rush charge.

With customer service this good on the weekend, SignsRus.com must spoil their other clients rotten during the week!

From the Desk of Tim Harrelson - Founder & "Hands-On CEO"

Dear Fellow Business Professional:

Are you still trying to figure out the best type of signage or graphics to use, all by yourself?

Do you even know what your options are? Unfortunately, reaching the right sign decisions on your own can be time consuming and difficult. And if you don't take certain precautions, you could end up making a costly mistake. So where do you start?

The best place to start is with a targeted message
Your advertising message should connect with the people whose attention you most want to attract and impress. Who is your perfect customer? What problem does your company solve for them? What your message says is critically important.

It's not just what you say though, it's how you say it.
The real magic of all great signs is in the design. And here's the world's greatest example:

Fast Food Signs

Do you think McDonald's would have become the icon it is today with just these plain, boring words? Just look at the difference by clicking here!

Fast Custom Lighted Signs
The most recognized sign in the world!

Ahhhhh … those golden arches! By following the right design principles, any small business can become a well known icon in their local business community.

Want a more down-to-earth example of how a simple design can dramatically affect public perception? Let's look at our very own business sign as a case in point.

In discussions with clients, they often assume we are this huge company or part of a national sign franchise due to the appearance of our name and logo. However, we are a classic example of "Small Business America".

No, we're not a franchise.

With 15 employees, we're certainly not huge either (in fact, don't be surprised if you catch me answering your call). But the professional looking image of our sign automatically attracts new clients day after day. And if you make all the right decisions, your new business signage can do the same for you too!

No, we don't work out
of our two car garage.

We're Not Satisfied With Your Design Until You Are!

Your satisfaction is so important, every order automatically includes a 100% Design Satisfaction Guarantee. How can we offer such a bold guarantee? Over the last 21 years, we have developed a 13-Point Design System which quickly spots and strengthens design weaknesses in these critical areas:

Spelling
Typestyle Usage
Letter Size
Leter Spacing
Use of Color
Shape
Margins
Spacing Between Design Elements
Alignment
Centering
Grouping
Overall Design Balance
And Last (but certainly not least), Image Quality and Resolution

We leave nothing to chance

If you send us your logo, a photo or other artwork to use, we still run it through our checklist to ensure optimal design quality. And if the Art Department sees any design flaws or potential issues with image quality, we will consult with you first before your order goes into production.

Your design satisfaction is guaranteed upfront

100% Satisfaction of Our Workmanship is Guaranteed Before the art department releases your order for production, we will e-mail you the design in color for your final approval. If you want to see any changes, just let us know. We’ll make all the changes you want at no extra charge.

As soon as you give us final approval, your order will go straight into production. When you receive your order, it will look just like the design you approved, only bigger!

I would consider it a privilege to work with you on your project so if you have any questions or would like my personal recommendation, please feel free to contact me directly.

Warm regards,
Sign Business Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly are custom business signs?

"Custom Signs" refers to a diverse range of "built to order" products provided by signsRus.com. All business signs, image and identity products can be cost effectively produced to match your specific requirements. Design options for custom business signs and custom vinyl banners include simple, clean layouts to vivid, full-color digital signage. Clients have a virtually unlimited range of options to choose from. Highly specialized computerized sign making equipment has made custom signs readily available to small and large businesses alike. Specialty signage such as custom real estate signs and custom vinyl church banners help represent the variety of our product offering. The fact is, we offer just about every kind of business sign you can imagine, except billboards.

Are custom signs and custom vinyl banners really cost effective?

The price points for custom business signs are well within reach for even the smallest size company. Custom signage and custom vinyl banners work like a silent salesman promoting specific messages to a target audience 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Since custom real estate signs continue to do their job for years, the cost per advertising impression is remarkably lower than all other types of advertising. When people advertise using other media, a continuous capital outlay is required month over month without ever having the benefit of ownership. Custom business signs are a capital investment in the present and future of your company or organization. By calculating your actual return on investment, you can readily see why custom business signs routinely pay for themselves many times over.

"How do I choose the most effective business sign for my company?"

The first step to choosing the most effective custom sign for your business is to determine the exact purpose of the sign. For example:

Will you be advertising your business, using the sign as an informational sign or direct traffic flow?
Is the custom sign intended to be permanent or temporary?
Where will the sign or custom vinyl banner be displayed? Inside or outside?
Who do want to see your message?
How will the business sign be installed?
What is the viewing distance for the sign?
How many seconds will your audience have to view the sign?

By starting with these basic questions and reading the information pages contained within this site, you will be well on your way to matching the attributes and characteristics of all the sign types available to fit your individual needs.

When you need help, signsRus.com is only a phone call or e-mail away.

Create top-of-mind brand awareness for any Small Business

Attractive custom signs effectively brand a small business and the physical location just as a product label brands a specific product. All successful businesses utilize customized signage and custom banners to reinforce the image of their company and create top-of-the-mind awareness with potential customers within their local region. Even churches use vinyl church banners to advertise revivals and promote inspiring messages throughout the year. By visually branding your business image and identity into the minds of your clients and potential customers, you are developing and reinforcing a memory for the products and services you offer so when they are needed again, you are more likely to be remembered. Branding your business involves not only custom signs, but also custom vinyl letters and vinyl graphics applied to company vehicles, business cards, stationary, uniforms and promotional items. SignsRus.com is a "One-Stop Business Shop" offering an unusually broad range of business identity products.

Does your business rely on impulse purchases?

Strategically located custom vinyl banners and custom signs can have a significant overall impact in the success or failure of a small business. Unfortunately, signage ordinances have severely restricted the size signs businesses are allowed to have. To offset such restrictive ordinances, you can put the “real estate” on your company vehicles to better use. With eye-catching custom vinyl letters and vinyl graphics, your company vehicle can become a stationary billboard for your business. In fact, some of our clients have purchased large used box trucks cheaply just to display their business signage in the parking lot. Any attractive custom sign will capture the eye and interest of people passing right in front of your business so your business sales potential and resulting profitability is effectively enhanced. Custom business signs that are easy to see and pleasing to look at can create unplanned stops resulting in impulse purchases ... over and over again. So be sure to make your customized signage and seasonal custom vinyl banners a focal point of your business location.
