With election season approaching, there will soon be signs everywhere you look.

The purpose of these political signs planted here, there and everywhere is to sell a candidate or a concept. . . to brand their likeness into our minds before we pull the lever or punch the chad.

For the next several months, we will see placards popping up on virtually every highway and byway . . . and in far too many yards.

If one sign is good, two has to be better. Does the one with the most signs win?

Not!

So how come businesses cannot do the same thing? They cannot because the same politicians who pollute our landscape at election time are the very ones responsible for the sign codes that regulate and restrict signs for business . . . and everyone else!

The outcome is predictable: only politicians can have signs (lots of them!). Businesses can also have signs but darn few and only by purchased permit.

Do not get me wrong. Sign codes and restrictions are desirable and necessary . . . but the same sign codes should be in play for all entities: businesses as well as political candidates and causes?

When was the last time you voted for a person or an issue that had the most signs scattered over the countryside?

In addition, when do thnk was the last time a politician paid for an election sign permit? Now there is a revenue stream we have not yet tapped!

Back to signs for business. The purpose of business signs is to increase public awareness of your business.

Your sign conveys what you do or sell to prospects, customers and passersby. What do we actually see in most business signs?

Almost without exception, business signs are tastefully laid out, color-coordinated, well proportioned . . . and utterly predictable.

Net effect? Many business signs come across as invisible! Not noticeable. Often not readable.

Many businesses make four primary mistakes regarding their signage:

1. They under spend on this crucial facet of their business.

The size, cost and look of your exterior sign should be part of your original marketing plan and not come as an afterthought. Your sign is one place you should not economize. It is often a one-time investment and needs to be right from the get-go.

2. They try to cram too much information into the space available.

Signs need to be easy to read from vehicles that most often are traveling too fast. Just like print ads, never try to cram 5 lbs. of potatoes into a one-pound sack.

3. They attempt to blend in to their surroundings.

Blending in works in some situations but often you want your sign to stand out.

That does not mean your signage needs to be garish or Las Vegas like. Stay away from cursive and/or exotic lettering. Save that for your thank you notes.

People need to be able to notice and read your sign from a distance and usually at speeds above the posted limit.

4. They erect their sign too high (especially signs in town.

Most signs should be windshield height so that they can actually be read as people whiz by.

Tall signs are fine for freeways but rarely work in most other locations.

Your sign company can help you with design, readability and sign code restrictions. Erecting effective business signs in NOT a do-it-yourself project. Big mistake.

Here is the skinny on typical business sign code and restriction issues:

1. Virtually all local governments regulate the construction, materials, electrical or other operating components (size, numbers and location) of business signs.

Rely on your sign vendor to guide you through this maze. These rules not only change often but also sometimes are subject to subjective interpretation.

Remember that the sign code enforcement officer rules.

2. Business signs are considered commercial speech and as such have protection from unlawful government interference under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

Under the Fourteenth Amendment,local governments are required to provide due process and equal treatment to all applicants as part of the sign permitting process (politicians presently excepted!)

3. There are federal laws protecting a sign company or business owner when someone tries to copy the design, artwork, or wording of a business sign without authorization.

I recall a case in Denver where a West Colfax motel constructed an expensive neon sign: Bugs Bunny Motel complete with a replica of the hare himself.

That motel was forced to make an expensive re-do eliminating all semblance of the trademarked Bugs Bunny name and logo.

4. Finally, whether a business owns or leases their sign,it is a business asset and receives the same tax treatment as any other tangible business property.

Do your homework regarding your sign.

Like many other things, you only have one chance to make a first impression.

I have wanted one for ages Becuase two of my friend’s have one but they don’t know how to make them bc a friend did it for them. Can anyone help me?

As you can see from this list if you were born under the Sagittarius sun sign you are in good company.

There are so many seemingly “small” details to setting up the perfect online presence for your business, but the problem is that all these “small” details are big enough to sink you if done improperly. One of the major points that many business people, or even advertising experts, don’t but enough thought into is how to set up their sign up form on their website.

If you offer any type of a product or service, you definitely want to build a sign in (also known as an “opt in”) form on your website. The only problem is deciding on the best way to do it. Many will swear by the “pop up” method, where a small box pops up asking for information whenever someone goes to your website. I’m not a big fan of this method for three reasons:

1. Pop ups are annoying no matter how they’re done, so you may turn off a lot of potential customers right from the start.

2. Even if they do sign up, if the box keeps coming back every time the log in, it becomes annoying, if not down right aggravating.

3. It looks like an amateurish hard sell.

The next most common mistake is a person goes too soft on the sale, having their sign up form on another page, connected by a simple underlined link that blends right into the rest of the page. The problems with this are obvious. An interested customer might just pass by without clicking. A lot of people want something as easy as possible and won’t click through to a sign up page.

The other obvious drawback is that the site of a large sign up page could turn people off even if they were interested customers. When you get so much advertising coming at you 24/7, even the ads on services and products you’re interested in can become annoying, if not straight out aggravating.

So what’s the best solution? Keeping in mind that the majority of people who “read” online actually scan the pages, you want your opt in form to be near the beginning and easy to see, but not so annoying or garish as to turn away potential customers. One excellent solution to getting maximum sign ups with minimal annoyance or frustration, then an early side bar is a great way to go.

By having an open opt in form on the top left of the page, you have an obvious box where anyone interested can sign in with their name and e-mail, but it’s not so obnoxious to chase away any potential customers. This is a great option, and works for the majority of website users since it’s easy to opt in, but not annoying like a recurring pop up. When you add a sign-up form, the best place for it is on the left, near the very top.

Remember the way customers read a web page: they scan the top from left to right to the bottom of the screen, and usually if you can’t offer something by then, the web surfer moves on. By having good information early on and an easy opt in, you are far more likely to grow that all critical e-mail list and be on the way to having your business generating leads at full steam.

I would not use the old style pop-up. People hate them and they can be blocked. The new style slide-in pop-in moves slowly and seems to te tolerated by most people. They also are unblockable. Internet Marketers use them because they work. You will get far more sign-ups from your opt-in list with a slide-in pop-in than you would get with a fixed sign up form further down the page. We are in the attention age, you have about 10 seconds to capture your visitors’ attention or they are gone in a click.

I like to use a Strong headline, then in 3-4 seconds my slow, slide-in, slides in from the left. I don’t know if the left is better for sure, but it seems to get more sign ups. As my pop-in, slides in I have my opt-in sign up offering nice gifts for signing up. On the slide-in, I have an audio message starting automatically with a strong message of what’s in it for them, if they remain and read my sales page. This takes some testing to get it to perform to perfection. Use free or inexpensive advertising until you are seeing positive results. You always need to keep an eye on your ROI.

The new pop-ins work and I think you are leaving money on the table it you don’t use them. Be sure you have a dependable pop-in that works properly. There are many styles available today. One of the newest is the Phoenix or Lightbox. This style darkens the sales page to create full attention to the slide-in. I usually don’t use the Phoenix. Be sure you can control the speed of the Pop-in. Try them, they will increase your bottom line.

it keeps popping up and it closes by it self then the sign pops up and says umm send problem or dont send then it closes when i answer it i have an anti virus i dont know wat eles to do ?? plzzz help
do i then uninstall the explorer outta my computer ?
