Chesapeake, VA – Signs for Outdoor Shopping Malls

BY: Ann & Dave Gupta, James River Signs

In order for a business or store to attract customers, one of the things it needs is signs. Without signs, customers are not going to know what stores are in the shopping center. One of the types of places that are going to need signs is outdoor shopping malls. It is not enough for the mall to have just one sign. A shopping center will need many signs and many different types of signs. The signs also have to be recognizable to the customer.

In most cases, the customer is looking for a specific store or business. If customers don’t see a sign, they are not going to know what type of stores are in a shopping center. As a result, they might not turn into that retail center. Even a sign that merely states the name of the brand they are looking for is not going to be that effective at attracting customers. A lot of effort has to be put into the signs in order to make sure that the customers know that the business they are looking for is there. There are different types of signs that can help malls and businesses achieve this.

Monument Signs

This is the type of sign that customers would see when they are driving up to the mall. This sign lets them know some of the stores that are available to shop at in this retail center. It is usually the most prominent companies that are featured on the sign as a way to attract customers. They typically have the official company logos. These types of signs can be made using dimensional letters, channel letters vinyl material, and other materials.

Building Signs

This is very crucial to the store. Without the building sign, customers are less likely to find a specific store. Building signs usually have the custom company logo. The building sign gives the company the chance to be recognized. Like the monument signs, channel letters, dimensional letters and vinyl material can be used for these signs. These signs help the customer know where a specific store is in a retail center. This is especially important if a shopping center is large because this allows the  customer to find the store quickly and park accordingly.

Door Signs

Door signs are important as a customer walks along the walkway looking for a particular store. Building signs are not always visible to the pedestrian on the sidewalk. Stores need door signs to further help a potential customer find the specific store they are looking for.

Open/Closed Signs

For businesses that are not open 24/7, open and closed signs are very helpful. It is important for the signs to not only tell customers whether they are opened or closed but also give them the hours of operation. This helps them avoid any frustration of taking multiple trips to a closed company.

Signs make things a bit easier for customers and business owners. For customers, it lets them know where the company is and when it is open. For business owners, it can attract the customers so that sales can be made. The above list is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what signs are needed for a shopping center. James River Signs can help a retail center with all its signage needs.
