Sign Conversions – Modernizing and Updating Old Signage

Country Inn & Suites Conversion to the Amanzi Hotel

Outdoor business signage goes a long way in branding your business. Well-designed signage can go a long way in attracting more customers, increasing the profitability of your business.

We at Dave’s Signs have handled scores of sign conversion projects for businesses of all shapes and sizes.

Modernizing and Updating Old Signage

When it comes to updating old signage, our proven process, creativity, and sign expertise allow us to provide clients with outstanding signage results.

Here is a quick case study about one of our latest projects. It’s a classic example of how a modern sign projects a more upscale image for the hotel.

Project – Pylon & Monument Sign Conversions for the Amanzi Hotel

The ownership of Country Inn & Suites changed hands, and the new owner wanted to rebrand the business to the Amanzi Hotel. This hotel mostly caters to tourists visiting the area. The client saw our website and was interested in the information and details of the signage services we provide. Since the business was being rebranded, our client needed to upgrade the existing signage that was already on the property.

The Client Had Very Specific Requests:

  • They wanted a modern sign design using their new logo that would immediately draw the attention of passing tourists.
  • The remodel and rebranding design needed to be in sync with the interior design of the hotel.
  • The project included a pole sign with freeway visibility and two ground monument signs at the entry driveways.
  • They needed the new signs to fit over existing old misshapen sign structures.

Here is a photo of the old entryway monument sign below.

Sign Design, Fabrication & Installation

The pylon sign was created using LED illuminated channel letters over pan formed aluminum. Some of the unique features of the sign are the halo lit wave details. Best of all, we successfully fit the sign right over the old structure. The job went smoothly from start to finish.

Modernizing and Updating Old Signage

We handled everything from the design, fabrication, and installation of the Amanzi Hotel pylon and the entryway monument signs. The illuminated signs reflect the more upscale image of the new hotel and our client is extremely happy with the outcome.

In addition to design, fabricating and installation services, we also handle maintenance and repairs of all types of signage.

What You Need To Know About Property Management Signs

If you are a property manager, you know exactly how important property management signs are for the success of your business. Just as the right kind of signage can help you succeed, a poorly designed sign system can have the exact opposite effect.

Check out this property management sign below we did for Brock Hills residential community. It’s clean, simple and gets the message across.

Property Management Signs

Here are Some Things You Need to Know About Property Management Signs:

1 – They Need to be Readable

Choose the font with care and make sure that the lettering is sufficiently large. Not everyone will have excellent eyesight, and it’s important to have a sign that can be easily seen from a distance. This is a crucial aspect of property management signs.

2 – Keep It Simple

Property management signs need to be clean and simple. For instance, if the sign is meant to direct people towards an office or restaurant, be direct and keep the message simple. The signs should maintain the look and feel of your brand, but don’t overdo it with clutter that can make the sign hard to follow. 

Here is a sign we did that does just that for The Pierpont Inn.

3 – Quality Matters

Because these signs are meant to be outdoors, the quality of your sign is of the utmost importance. They need to withstand the rain and changing weather patterns. With the right property management sign,  you can help to increase desire and add value to renters.

4 – Hire Professionals for Sign Design

Getting your property management signs to succeed is about hiring the right team. At Dave’s Signs, we have been designing, fabricating, installing and servicing property management signs for over 20+ years. We know exactly how to provide our clients the kind of property management signs they require.

How To Choose A Sign For Your Business

Making your mark in a competitive landscape is a lot about using the right advertising and marketing strategies. And choosing a sign for your business is one important tool in your advertising arsenal. Check out this restaurant sign below we did for Toppers Pizza Place in Camarillo, California.

Signs For Your Business

At Dave’s Signs, we firmly believe that attracting customers to your business is all about creating the right first impression. When you choose the right kind of sign for your business, it improves the appearance of your storefront, and helps attract customers.

Here are some tips on how to choose a sign for your business…

  • Quality – While there are a large number of companies out there that can provide cheap business signs, it important that you look for a credible operator that provides you the perfect balance of quality and cost. A poorly-designed or shabbily structured sign will have negative impact on your reputation. Check out this office sign we completed below for Ambulnz™. It’s clean, simple and professional.Signs For Your Business
  • The Right Branding – It’s important that your business sign reflects your brand identity. The design, structure, and the colors used need to complement your brand image.
  • Simplicity in Design – When getting your sign designed, make sure that it has a simple and clean design. Adding too much of information, too many colors or excessive lighting will make the sign look too cluttered, impacting its readability. Your signs should have just the right amount of information to bring in more foot traffic.
  • The Right Materials – While there are a large number of materials that can be used in outdoor signage, it’s important that you choose something which matches the aesthetic of your storefront. Channel letter signs with halo-lit lighting is a good choice for outdoors and can be constructed in different types of metals and acrylic. Make sure that the materials that you opt for would be able to weather the elements and last for a number of years with minimal maintenance. Check out the bank sign below. It looks like wood, but its actually made out of acrylic.

4 Reasons Why Outdoor Signs Are the Best Way to Advertise Your Business

The success of every business big and small depends on advertising and outdoor signs. Whether you are a well-established and well recognized company or have just stepped into the business landscape, it’s important that you let customers know more about your business, encouraging them to visit your store.

Check out this important outdoor wall sign below:

We at Dave’s Signs firmly believe that marketing and advertising for your business doesn’t have to be a complex affair. Here are five reasons why outdoor signs are one of the best ways to advertise your business:

Cost-Effective– When compared to billboard advertising, radio, magazines or TV commercials, your business can easily gain vast exposure at a much lower cost with outdoor signs. In spite of the various new digital advertising mediums that are used today, outdoor business signs have proved to be one of the most impactful forms of advertising.

This sign says beauty, sophistication and luxury homes in this gated community.

Increase in Profitability– Market research has proved that even a single, well-designed and well-structured outdoor sign can increase your annual sales significantly. Illuminated outdoor signage encourages drivers and passersby to stop and patronize your business. In many instances, this can also be an informed decision, which increases the profitability of your business.

Quick Updates of Latest Marketing Messages– If you want to create greater awareness about upcoming sales or even new products, traditional forms of marketing can take a long time to spread the message. In comparison, you can easily use outdoor signs like banners or panel signs to reach your audience quickly.

Build Brand Awareness– It’s easy to reach audiences that pass your business every day. And a custom outdoor sign that has your logo and company name clearly displayed can be very noticeable and helps increase brand awareness about your services and products. Check out how great the branding looks with these signs below.
