Your Own Logo

Id ManualThe trademarks of products and organizations are a means of condensing complex reality into a single, simple statement. A statement that can be controlled, modified, developed and matured over time. We professionally develop fresh and unique ideas for each new business owner who will open a new sign store, or for existing sign company owners who need a new and updated image.

The Sign Biz Graphics Department creates the business logo, allowing each entrepreneur to choose elements that blend harmoniously with his or her own "vision" of the new company. The most rewarding aspect of what we do is our ability to transform our clients' ideas into tangible, effective identities. We are able to develop successful solutions because we have specialized knowledge of the challenges our clients face in positioning themselves favorably in a competitive environment. Our designers use only the latest software applications to ensure the highest quality final product for you and your printer.Once a logo is been designed, it becomes an important element in the design of yellow page ads and promotional collateral -- no generic templates here! The store is yours, and it will reflect your vision!

We begin with "thumbnail" drafts of a variety of logo concepts built around your name selection and color preferences. These are presented to you electronically, viewable and printable from a private web location.  You work one-on-one with the graphic designer to craft a final logo that reflects your vision, and then we tie all of your image collateral together-- from stationary and envelopes, to fax cover sheets, business cards and window graphics. After your approval of the final product, all component artwork files are transferred to you as your property, on CD and in a beautiful Corporate Identity Manual.

Store Layout & Design

Store LayoutAfter a lease site is secured for your new store, through the services of our specially-selected service provider, consultation and draft of proposed space layout is included in our turnkey store package at no additional charge. Open architecture and larger facilities appeal to discriminating buyers of signage. Our provider will work with you on lighting, traffic flow, layout conception and presentation ideas. You can expect a design that reflects more than a decade of experience specifically devoted to the digital sign and graphics industry. We custom-render CAD layout designs of your business floor plan, including an equipment layout schemata with all hardware footprints shown to scale. We are experts in understanding the unique challenges of your marketplace. But our designs are different because the store is yours! You are going to operate it, and it will reflect your vision!

The best approach to designing a store layout is to start with an empty store. Our architect will draft a diagram to scale of the store as it would appear empty of current equipment and even non-bearing walls. The result will be a preliminary store layout which encompasses all of the operational requirements.  You won't have to worry about space needs for your equipment-- We keep a list of all equipment footprints and estimated space allocations for each department before filling up your floor diagram. This list will be the groundwork from which to build the layout and can include current equipment and/or equipment you wish to purchase or build. Our goal is to develop a cost effective retail environment that elicits an efficient, attractive, customer friendly atmosphere. With our professional staff and top quality products working for you, we feel confident you'll be more than satisfied with the results.
