10 Tips for Creating Effective Banners

BY: Trish Tratos, Spot-On Signs & Graphics

Events are a big deal in the marketing world. Whether you are a big business, small business, or non-profit, banners are an excellent marketing tool. They can be used to promote sales events, fundraising events, or to roll-out a new product. The following are 10 ideas to create effective banners for your event.

  1. Message: The first and probably most important of the 10 is to decide what the message your business, corporation, and/or corporation is trying to convey. A clearly constructed message is key to planning out the other 9 tips.
  2. Color: The quickest way to catch an eye is with an effective color scheme. Go classy with metallic black, others like some shiny metal layouts or maybe some bright neon is more your vibe. Whatever color blend you choose to accompany your message make it eye catching. Digitally printed full-color banners allow you to let your creative juices flow!
  3. Style: If you are a professional B2B company you will want to ensure that the style you choose reflects that professionalism. If you are a school trying to reach out to young people, ensure your style is fresh and young.
  4. Size:  If you have a small booth a 40ft banner is probably as little over the top. If you have a building to put the banner on, a street size banner might be appropriate. Make sure your size reflects the need.
  5. Logo: As with all advertising you do, include your logo on event banners. You want people to immediately know whose banner it is and what you are all about.
  6. Placement: A banner is only effective when it is seen. Check out your banner from all the areas it could be seen from and make informed decisions. Locate it where people see it.
  7. Theme: The nature of the event you’re using the banner for will definitely drive the theme. What is the tone? Serious, playful or down right nutty – make sure your banner suits the theme.
  8. Products: Consider putting a product in the background. This will make it so much easier for people to connect your name to what you do.
  9. Slogans: They have been around forever and used for a reason. If you can think of a fun little rhyme to stick in the minds of folks passing by make sure it is on your marketing.
  10. Quantities: How many are you actually going to need? There is nothing worse than a missed opportunity. Make sure you understand where your banners will be seen and make sure you have enough to get your message out!
