FRANCHISEFOCUS INVESTMENT: £ 3 6 ,0 0 0 A good sign 5 Reasons why the signage industry (and FASTSIGNS) rules! F
ASTSIGNS believe that the signage industry is exciting, creative and most importantly, a great opportunity for
anyone considering a management-type franchise opportunity, here’s why…
1. Signs are everywhere Take a moment and look around you, what signs do you see? Maybe you can see an exterior building sign, vehicle graphics or a menu board. Businesses use their brand to connect to their customers and signage is one of the tools they use. Signage also goes further than
face value, it helps deliver important information. In 2023, the results of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry were announced. Off the back of the inquiry report, signage in multi-dwelling establishments, like residential buildings, has had to be reviewed and renewed to comply with the law. This type of signage is a life-saving necessity. These are just two examples of how
signage impacts our day-to-day lives. Signage is always in demand.
2. Technology keeps the industry young Before the dawn of digital technology in the early noughties, signage would be made from layering vinyl, that would be hand-cut and mounted. Today signage is printed digitally, cut
using precision tools – just one of the ways signage production has developed. Technology is at the heart of what FASTSIGNS do and advancements often reflect customer demand. Currently, sustainability is high on the agenda and FASTSIGNS is responding by sourcing options with sustainable properties.
3. Resistant to market pressures While no business is ever 100% immune to market pressures, FASTSIGNS believe that due to a diverse customer base and product range built to facilitate customer needs, their signage service can pivot to suit the market. Take the pandemic for example, in order for the UK public to act with some level of normality, signage was used to keep the nation informed when interacting with everyday activities, like
going to the supermarket. FASTSIGNS centres were able to move from producing large branding projects to the production of floor stickers, window graphics and safety shields, seamlessly.
“Run a business that's always in high demand”
4. Seasonal change drives demand repeat business often comes through the demand of the season. Be it Christmas, Easter, summer or even ‘back to school’. Many businesses look to celebrate the high points of the calendar year. Whether the customer operates in education, retail, hospitality, healthcare or any of the other industries, FASTSIGNS provides signage solutions. Their year will have events that need to be celebrated, meaning that signage is always in demand.
5. FASTSIGNS have been doing this for almost 40 years – and have been at the forefront of signage technology since launching in in 1985. Having helped more than 770 franchisees worldwide to run a business that remains in high demand. As a franchisor, FASTSIGNS are committed to ensuring their franchise opportunity remains imperative for the future. In pursuit of this they provide comprehensive training, unparalleled supplier relationships and technology that looks to the future. …And that’s only five reasons as
to why the signage industry (and FASTSIGNS) is an opportunity that is worth investigating! This is just the tip of the iceberg.
