In this day and age of modern computers, ink jet printers and desktop publishing programs, I am still amazed to see that store owners put little effort in to producing quality signage for their stores. Signage is one of the most important ways to convey your message to your customers. Your store name, promotions, pricing, and product information may all be conveyed through signage. Are you getting these messages across effectively? As a customer walks by your store, you have about 3 seconds to let them know what they will find inside. What message are you sending? Professional signage will attract the customer, provide just the right amount of information and invite the customer to enter your store or try your product. Unprofessional signage is confusing to the customer and sends a negative message about your store and product. Common problems include ambiguous or misleading messages, spelling errors or signs that are difficult to read.

Effective signage has the following qualities:

• QUALITY PRODUCTION You don't have to spend big money to get signs that look professional. Having said that, you still need to be willing to spend a few rupees to create the image that you want to represent your business. Consider the lifespan of the sign. Exterior signage that needs to last several years requires a fairly large investment. The shorter the lifespan of the sign, the less it should cost.

    Beyond Breakeven Point
    To be profitable, a business must charge more than its breakeven point for the services it sells. When it comes to pricing a job, what often hinders a contractor from carefully considering the markup for overhead and profit is the competitor who does not take these things into consideration. So-called “low balling” does not assure long-term business success.You can take your business beyond the breakeven point by knowing your overhead percentage and calculating it into the bids and sale price you offer for your services. Most of us know that overhead is the cost of running a business and includes items such as rent, utilities, office supplies, staff and officer compensation. When you know your overhead percentage, you will know exactly

        A Part Of The Public Proxy Servers
        Proxy servers are, such as browsers, a way of connection between an internet user and internet resources that he is accessing. These proxy servers gather and in the same time they save files that are often requested by a great part of the internet users in a special database called cache. That is why, using a proxy server might lead to the increase of your internet connection speed because it is possible that the information you are searching over the internet to be already a part of the cache of the proxy server. In some case proxy servers might deliver information immediately.

If you are running a small boutique, producing your own short term promotional or informational signage is perfectly acceptable, provided you have the tools and skills to do it well. If you are producing signs on your own, they should be produced on a computer, not handwritten. This might seem too obvious to mention, but I still see stores using signs that have been written in black felt marker. Use a desktop publishing or word processing program and quality printer and paper. If your printer and paper are not good quality, take your computer file to a print shop to produce your image. Mount your final images on a heavy card.
      • SIMPLE COLOR SCHEME Don't go crazy with color. Pick a simple, two or three color scheme and stick with it throughout the store. Pick a background color, text color and highlight color. Make sure that the colors have enough contrast to be easily read. Red on black, while a dynamic and high power combination, does not have enough contrast to be easily viewed. However, if the text is very large, bold and only one or two short words, you might be able to get away with it. Outlining the text with a thin white line will also improve the contrast. Also be careful with combinations such as yellow/green or orange/pink/red or green/blue. These combinations can be powerful and tr
