The Business Owner’s Guide to Signage — Design, Materials & Tips

More Than a Sign -A Complete Guide to Choosing the Right Signage for Your Business

Every successful business begins with visibility—and signage is where it starts. Your sign isn’t just a nameplate; it’s your first handshake with potential customers. It speaks on your behalf 24/7, long before anyone walks through the door. At Saveri Signages, we understand that signage is not just about looks—it’s about communication, trust, and impact.

Whether you're opening a new store, upgrading an existing space, or launching a new brand, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about choosing, designing, and installing effective signage that works for you.



1. Start with a Clear Purpose

Before you even think about fonts or colors, take a moment to define why you need a sign in the first place:

  • To attract walk-in traffic? You'll want something bold and eye-catching.
  • To identify your space? It should reflect your brand identity clearly and professionally.
  • To provide wayfinding or directions? Simplicity and clarity are key.

Your signage should do more than just inform—it should align with your brand values and visual identity.

2. Understand Your Location and Environment

Context matters. The best signage responds to its surroundings:

  • Visibility: Consider the distance from which your sign will be viewed. Larger signs or lighting may be necessary for busy streets or highways.
  • Mounting Surface: Will the sign go on a wall, a glass window, or be freestanding? Each requires a different approach.
  • Lighting Conditions: Does your sign need to be seen at night? Illuminated or backlit signs can dramatically improve visibility after dark.

3. Don’t Skip the Permits

Local laws often dictate what kind of signage you can display. Every city has its own regulations about:

  • Size, height, and placement
  • Lighting and energy use
  • Materials and mounting methods

Working with a professional signage company like Saveri Signages ensures that these requirements are handled smoothly—we help you with the permit process so there are no surprises later.

4. Get the Design Right

Good signage is simple, memorable, and brand-consistent. Keep in mind:

  • Typography: Use fonts that are easy to read from a distance. Avoid decorative or thin typefaces.
  • Color Contrast: Make sure your background and text contrast well. White on black or dark blue on white are timeless combinations.
  • Brand Consistency: Match your signage style with your website, brochures, and store interior for a unified look.

5. Pick the Right Materials


Materials affect both the durability and appearance of your signage:

  • Acrylic or Vinyl: Cost-effective and sleek for indoor use.
  • ACP or Metal Letters: Durable and professional, perfect for exteriors.
  • LED Glow Boards: Great for visibility at night and high-traffic areas.

We offer a wide range of materials based on your budget, aesthetic, and functional needs.

6. Work with the Right Partner

Signage is a long-term investment, so it pays to do it right the first time. A professional signage company should offer:

  • In-house design and consultation
  • Permit and legal compliance support
  • Fabrication with quality control
  • Installation by trained professionals
  • Post-installation support and warranty
