Advertising Your Christmas Program

Whether you are just getting started with your new business venture or you are trying to take a new approach to getting word out about your current business, you will want to invest some money into yard signs. Yard signs are great because they are easy enough to have made and they are easy to place in yards, with the owners consent of course. However, before you head right over to the sign printing shop, you will want to review the following tips.

Less Is More

Sure, you might have a lot of information that you really want to get out to people, but yard signs are generally on the smaller side. It would be too difficult to put a lot of information on the little sign without those driving past ignoring your sign. If it is not easy to read in a split second, then hardly anyone will get the message you are trying to spread. Adding things such as your business name, phone number, and possibly your hours of operation are all you need.

Pick Contrasting Colors

You want the print on the sign to be bold and sort of pop out from the background. This is why it is important to make sure that you are using contrasting colors. If the words blend into the background, no one will be able to see it. If you are having trouble selecting the best contrasting colors to use, you could always seek advice from the print shop. They have likely seen just about every color combination out there and can tell you which colors work well together and which ones don't. If you have decided on your colors, but the print shop is giving you a differing opinion, you might want to listen to what they have to say, even if it goes against your original plan.

Now that you have all of those tips to keep in mind, you may be ready to move forward with the process of getting your yard signs printed. The sooner you head over to the print or signage shop, the sooner you can start placing them in yards. While the print shop is doing their magic, you could begin to contact friends, family, your neighbors, and even some businesses about getting their permission to put a sign on their property. This way, as soon as you pick up the completed signs, you can start installing them.
