4 Important Features of DIY Marketing With Ultraboard Signs

For retail businesses, sports teams, family and class reunions, fitness centers, and restaurants, signs are an important part of the user experience. They provide advocacy and support, serve as wayfinders, announce discounts, and promote special events. Ordering your Ultraboard signs is easy. Start by watching the brief tutorial on our YouTube channel. It’s designed to help you make the most of our design tool, maximize your design experience, and unleash your creativity. After you watch the video, start designing the signs you need with these four important sign features.

Size Selections
Our Ultraboard signs are available in ten vertical and horizontal sizes, so the next step after viewing or tutorial is choosing the right size for the signage you need. The best way to choose the size of your sign is to define and understand its purpose. For example, the 48”X96” size is perfect for outdoor signs intended to draw a crowd in support of an event, sports team, or concert. The 18”X24” size is perfect for indoor signs intended to convey in-store messages and draw consumer attention to particular items. You can also choose more than one size to convey the same message. After your sign is designed, choose the size you’d like, save it, then apply it to different Ultraboard sign sizes to create an entire marketing collection.

Color Choices
Once your size is determined, choose your background color. Color plays a large role in the effectiveness of your sign and the emotional reaction it elicits. Choose colors that convey the mood you want to convey or the action you want consumers to take. A day spa might choose tranquil, soothing colors; a sports team would choose team colors; a retailer would use the colors of their brand and logo on exterior signs, while their interior signs might use colors that incite action and depict motion.

Font Choices
The fonts you choose make a significant and important difference in your design aesthetic. Teams and small businesses often have preselected fonts. When choosing a font on your own, pay attention to how it impacts your overall message. A font that might be ideal for promoting a horror film wouldn’t work for a daycare center. Similarly, a font that works for a restaurant wouldn’t work for an escape room company. Choose from our vast collection of fonts that let you convey a message, continue a theme, or establish a mood.

Images
Remember the old adage, a picture is worth a thousand words? That’s never been truer than in the current state of digital and visual marketing. Logos and mascots are just the start of the images you can add to your Ultraboard signs. Choose from the seemingly limitless images in our database to enhance your sign, catch your ideal consumer’s eye, and market like a pro. You can also upload your own images (just make sure you own the rights to them) to emblazon your sign with team spirit, family pride, or small business mastery.

Available in ten sizes, our Ultraboard signs are heavy-duty and durable, produce vibrant colors, and are rigid and long-lasting. Their dense, foam core repels moisture and provides a lightweight, easily portable sign. They’re ideal for displays, counter cards, and framed stands.
