About BestofSigns.com

Best of Signs prints custom signage to order and builds the business around one promise: a finished display leaving the works within forty-eight hours at no extra charge.

What can be printed

Vinyl banners are the staple, with mesh versions for windy sites and pole pockets or hemmed eyelets as fitting options. Around them sit retractable banner stands, table covers, feather and teardrop flags, rigid signs in corrugated plastic, foam board and aluminium composite, backdrops and full trade show packages, plus stickers, decals and yard signs. The site organises the range by occasion as much as by product, so trade shows, grand openings, fundraisers, sports days, farmers markets and property sales each have their own starting point.

Getting artwork right the first time

The deadline promise only helps if the file is usable, and this is where most rush jobs go wrong. Supply artwork at the finished size with bleed, keep text well inside a safe margin so nothing important sits where a grommet or a hem will land, and use vector artwork for logos rather than a low-resolution image lifted from a website. A large banner is viewed from a distance, so fewer words in a bigger typeface beats a paragraph nobody reads. Proof the spelling of a name, a date and a telephone number twice, since a printed banner cannot be corrected afterwards.

Where the discount code goes

Build the product first, choosing size, material and finishing, then open the basket and enter the code in the promotional field before the payment page and confirm the total has changed. Quantity pricing drops the unit cost automatically as the order grows, and it will usually beat a code on a large run, so it is worth comparing. One code applies per order, and package deals that already bundle a stand with a print rarely take another reduction on top.

Timing and reuse

The forty-eight hour clock starts once artwork is approved rather than when the order is placed, so a proof left unanswered overnight costs a day. If a sign will be used again, leave the date off it: a banner that says the event name and not the year is one you can hang next season. Outdoors, mesh survives wind that will tear a solid vinyl banner off its fixings, which is the choice that decides whether a sign lasts one weekend or several.
