Sign Design Tips For Better Business Marketing In Southfield, MI

Today’s post runs down some basic sign design tips to improve your business marketing and branding results, then explains how to book a free sign design consultation in Southfield, Michigan.

Today, all permanent sign designs must comply with all stipulations outlined in the ADA’s 2010 Standards for Accessible Design, which ensures that all business signage is accessible to persons with disabilities. If you neglect this ethical obligation, you may be fined. But the reputational damage goes much deeper.

Though it may not seem like a big deal to gloss over a few design details, choosing the wrong serif type or character case sends a powerful and exclusionary message. When you think of all the money brands spend promoting their ethical image each year—and how quickly an ADA lawsuit can bring down a business—you’ll quickly realize it’s worth minding the details of your sign design.

Make sure you follow all the design standards listed in Section 703 of the ADA’s 2010 Standards document—or just work with SignScapes for effortless compliance.

2.  Pay Attention To Proven Sign Design Practices To Beat The Competition

Signage is the workhorse of the business marketing industry, so it’s little wonder that volumes of research has been conducted on sign design best practices.

After studying business sign performance in multiple industries, researchers at the International Sign Association concluded that the following attributes were most effective:

1. Legibility—Is your sign clear and easy to read?
2. Entertainment value—Is your sign enjoyable to view?
3. Information value—Does your sign share important information effectively?
4. Quality—Is your sign professionally made and aesthetically pleasing?
5. Size—Is your sign appropriately scaled?
6. Uniqueness—Is your sign banal or one-of-a-kind?

The ISA’s list is by no means exhaustive, and best practices are constantly evolving. For more sign design insights, book a free consultation with our team—though we primarily serve Southfield businesses, remote sign design services are available nationwide.
