Convention centers can be huge, accommodating thousands of visitors for the one convention. At a trade show, these people might be milling around looking to find particular exhibition stands. To prevent confusion, you need to address the problem before it reaches the auditorium. Signs work effectively as substitutes for officials who can’t be in all places at once! The best place to display signs that give information on the location of stands is the bottleneck of the building, the lobby.
We make lobby signs in all kinds of styles to suit the tone of your convention. If you’re prepared to spend a little more, our brushed metal signs with crisp cut or etched letters will add a distinguished look. How about an etched design on frosted glass? Or we can make painted dimensional lettering and mount onto a metal or plexiglass base.
One reason that orders from convention centers are so lucrative for us, is the free advertising we get! This is especially the case when trade shows are held. Hundreds, often thousands, of businesses rent stands for these events. They all get to see our fantastic lobby signs. All these businesses will need signs at some point. You’d be amazed how much new business we receive from our work at conference centers.
Sometimes, the material you choose for a lobby sign is dependent on the look you’re trying to achieve. Acrylic tends to be more adventurous and creative, better suited for a convention attended by artists, writers, or actors, for example. Metals, conversely, give a more noble or classy air, and may suit those conventions aimed at business or the legal and medical professions. We always take the time to understand the client’s precise needs before we start the design. If that means emailing proofs from our graphics design team a few times before the workshop gets involved then so be it. We strive to deliver the right sign, every time.
Lobby signs are your big welcome for visitors attending the convention. The right sign, crafted for excellence, will give people their first impressions of what they can expect from the convention. A great lobby sign reveals an attitude of top professionalism and will encourage any waverers to enter the auditorium. Your numbers will increase, and with them, revenues for all concerned. After your convention is a success, come back to us and we will offer you a loyalty discount on your next batch of signs.
So call us today with your lobby sign needs. We’re always happy to take time out to help.
