How to find the best custom signs near me: Let Google be your guide

When there’s work to be done and signage orders to be made, browsing the web might seem like the last thing you should be doing, but it could be the key to finding quality custom signs near you. In the Information Age, it’s never been easier to evaluate local businesses, with Google My Business listings offering real customer reviews, location-tagged sign galleries, public customer service interactions, and more, all on a single page. And with the average internet user already online for 155 minutes per day, you’re only a few clicks or keystrokes away from completing your due diligence. With 81% of consumers now conducting online research before they buy, any sign shop worth their salt will have a Google My Business listing stacked with reviews and pictures of real results. These are just a few reasons to check it out as part of your research process:

• Browse customer reviews from real people—While there are plenty of great reviews for our business to be found on other social media sites, Google reviews are particularly valuable for consumer research because you can see whether or not they come from a real person. Since users must sign-in to their Gmail accounts to leave Google reviews, it’s easy to spot fake reviews!  Furthermore, many reviews will include pictures and location tags, so if you’re local, you’ll have no trouble tracking them down to view the results in person.   HINT:  Look for Google ratings of 4.8 stars or better!
• Get a glimpse of the sign shop’s customer service. Visiting a sign shop’s Google listing also lets you see how the owners treat their customers. People will drop by with questions, comments, feedback, and concerns, and you’ll be able to browse through these public posts to get an idea of how the shop does business. If you notice terse or argumentative language, delayed replies, or generally poor communication skills, you’ll know to steer clear!To get an idea of how quality custom sign shops interact with customers, check out our Google reviews, ask a question to see for yourself, or give us a call at (248)-955-1095.

• See custom signs near me. Google My Business listings now include galleries where customers can browse through finished projects and product types, and sign shop owners can showcase jobs-well-done. As mentioned above, many of these photos will include location tags, making it easy to visit local signs in-person to see how they look and how they’ve held up over time.
