Sign Business – The Big Picture

98% of all signs are indoors. They are paper posters, cardboard, banners and thin plastic like materials. Most signs are thrown away every month. In December, they say “Happy Holidays”. In January, they say “Clearance”. In February, they say “Valentine’s Day”, and on and on…

Drive down any street, walk into any business, notice vehicles of all sizes wrapped in pictures and graphics or visit a tradeshow and the opportunity for building a business in the sign industry will become very clear. Today, more than ever, small businesses to large are seeking ways to increase their visibility and make an impact through the use of signs.

Here’s what a modern day sign business looks like:

  • Signs are custom production, so every day is different and you will see tangible, visible results of your efforts as you drive around town.
  • It’s close to home, in a low-overhead business park location, operating Monday-Friday 9-5 – no nights, weekends or holidays, with a small staff of career employees.
  • There are no loud noises, odors, or dangerous chemicals.
  • It’s a relationship business with repeat customers. Twenty to thirty of those customers can equal 80% of your revenue. Many of those customers may be regional and even national in scope.
  • It’s a non-cash transaction business, so when you are out seeing customers, you don’t have to worry about who’s holding the money.

This is SignWorld!  A business model veteran entrepreneurs find attractive!

We are the “Commercial Sign Companies” located in light industrial business parks.

We are not the retail sign stores you see in the shopping centers. Our 250 plus Owners are people-oriented individuals who have the desire to run a custom manufacturing business. Our Signworld Owners are a cut above the traditional sign company. Our ongoing support and training along with state-of-the-art equipment will leave the competition behind.

You won’t need any graphics arts education or prior experience with signs. Our owners come from all walks of life, from bankers to secretaries to construction workers and military veterans. No matter what their background, they all share a strong work ethic; a desire to build a business with no limitations and the realization that working for themselves is their ultimate destiny. They apply their people skills to help their customers with solutions they need to promote their business.

Listen as Jack Werner talks about the opportunities offered by SignWorld to Veteran Entrepreneurs.

We welcome Wayne Kidd from the Johns Creek (Georgia) Veterans Association.

Johns Creek Georgia Veterans Association is a relatively new group, organized by veterans and for veterans and has the full support of the village of Johns Creek, Georgia.  The JCVA is moving quickly to establish a Veterans Memorial Walk to recognize military veterans from all eras, increasing awareness within the community of the price paid by military veterans to serve.

The group and the memorial serve as an example of how a small group of individuals,who share a common bond in this case military service, can establish an organization, secure public support, creating veteran recognition in the community.

Great job guys!

Our next guest is Mike Roman.  Mike’s company is Manufacturing Practices, Inc., known as MPI

Manufacturing Practices, Inc. serves the manufacturing and distribution community by assisting them in the selection and

implementation of Enterprise Management Systems (ERP).   MPI originated in the mid-1980’s when Mike Roman, CPIM, joined a small family-owned business performing IT, materials, and operations management.  While there Mike helped to successfully deploy business management software for the organization. As soon as the responsibilities were transferred to a colleague, Mike moved on to help other small and midsize manufacturers maximize the performance of their systems.

MPI clients have included over 60 manufacturers in a wide variety of fields such as steel fabrication, flower and seed, and extruded plastics. The company focuses on providing personal and comprehensive services to small and midsize

companies that are the backbone of the American economy.

Mike and MPI serve as an example of how some military experience and skills can be applied to the corporate world and creating your own business and being part of the community.

Wayne Kidd and Mike Roman are Vietnam Veterans.  Thank you for your service and Welcome Home!
