AVOIDING “NEW SIGN” STRESS
Ordering a new sign can be nerve-wracking. At Vital Signs, we have been hearing for years from clients about how much time and effort it takes to get pricing to have a new sign installed. We heard those complaints, and we designed a better (and proven!) way to put a quote in motion for new signage. The Vitals Signs method for producing a quick, accurate quote skips the time-consuming appointment.
And our process won’t leave you frustrated or exhausted.
JUST 3 SIMPLE STEPS, NO DRAWN-OUT APPOINTMENTS
When you want a sign placed, there is no need to schedule time for Vital Signs to come out and look at the space. We know what an inconvenience that is during fast-paced work days, so our alternative is simple and quick: Just take a picture of the space straight on (not from an angle) and email it to us. All we need to create a mock-up of your sign is that picture (which you can take right on your smart phone) and one measurement in the picture (such as the height of a door or width of a window).
SHOW US YOUR EMPTY SPACE, AND WE’LL SHOW YOU WHAT YOUR SIGN COULD LOOK LIKE
Here is an example of a straight-on shot that we can use to create a mock-up:
In this picture, a good measurement to provide is the width of the ceiling tiles.
TAKING THE PICTURE: AVOID ANGLES
An image that is angled won’t work. For example, here is the same space, but from an angle. We can’t create a mock-up from shots like this:
Email the picture and measurement along with your sign’s artwork to sales@box2120.temp.domains, and we’ll get right on it. We take your image and measurement to create a scale drawing of the space. This gives us the tools to scale the artwork to the space.
THE QUOTE FOR YOUR NEW SIGN WILL LOOK LIKE THIS
Some of our customers in the past have been skeptical about sending in their picture. They truly believed that there was no way their quote would be accurate without our visiting and seeing the space in person. Or, they didn’t think the sign would be done correctly if we didn’t visit the site.
But, I can assure you that after hundreds of quotes, we are proud of how well this method works; many happy Vital Signs customers agree.
Here is a sample of a proof and quote based on the space above:
PICTURE, MEASUREMENT, ARTWORK, DONE
If you’re in the market for a new sign, we can get you a rendering and a quote quickly with those three key things:
- A picture (from your smart phone is fine),
- one measurement, and
- your sign’s artwork.
It takes less than 10 minutes to gather those things and attach them to an email …
AND you don’t have to block out time for yet another meeting.
GIVE IT A TRY
Our clients are often surprised that something that easy and fast can yield such great results. We think you’ll be pleasantly surprised, too.
