Your signage could be the most important brand component you have
Every good brand communicator understands that their brand is more than just a logo, rather it is the entire experience that affects whether someone remembers their company or if they decide to do business with them. It must permeate every channel with clarity and purpose— including signage.
A person once said, “A business with no sign is a sign of no business.”
This statement in a very direct way sums up the important role signage can play in brand communications.
