It might be a monument sign at the entrance of a business. It could be a banner sign over the street to announce a holiday celebration. Or it could be as simple as traffic signs helping people to find their way. No matter the form, outdoor signs are an important marketing tool to advertise and inform to all who pass by. Highly effective, they also offer a high return on investment, because they advertise as long as they last.
An outdoor sign needs to be seen to be effective, but because it’s an outdoor sign, it needs to be durable as well. After all, if the colors fade or the materials break down, the sign no longer serves its purpose—in fact, now it just makes your brand look shabby. Contrasting colors and readable fonts with sharp imagery and designs are just the starting point of making an outdoor sign that not only pops visually but allows your audience to quickly take in information.
Signs that are too hard to read quickly aren’t read at all. The sign’s materials have to be chosen to survive the local weather conditions. Colors shouldn’t quickly fade in the bright sun, nor should the substrate break down from freeze-thaw cycles or other harsh—but expected—weather. Well-designed signs that last provide a high ROI for years to come.
