COVID-19 has become a way of life for everyone. While businesses quickly installed signs at the start the pandemic, these rogue signs can now actually do harm to a business. When adding signs to a pre-existing set of graphics, this creates visual clutter. Because of this, you risk creating confusion and leaving a negative impression with your customers.
Now is the time to purposefully assess your visual communication plan and decide whether your signs are enhancing your environment or hurting your brand. Coronavirus signs show your customers that you care. Every moment with your customer counts to set you apart from your competition, so why not use a new set of signs as branding opportunities for moments when customers are waiting, etc.
You may think you have everything you need when it comes to COVID-19 signage, but are they truly integrating with your brand? It may be time to take a deeper look at what your customers are experiencing. You can do this by employing the Good-Better-Best approach:
Basic Covid-19 Signs
These are signs that get the job done, but generic signs don’t enable you to enhance your brand. Basic, simple face mask required signs may communicate your message, but they fall flat when they mirror every other business and don’t match your brand colors. In addition, the signs you had made for any COVID-19 related needs in March have most likely changed and are probably worn out and need a refresh.
Standard Covid-19 Signs
The Standard signs category takes it up a notch by tying Coronavirus signs into the brand by choosing colors and logos that compliment your decor. By adding additional colors and brand identifiers, customers are more apt to remember your brand. Yet, there’s still one final category that will truly elevate your brand.
Branded Coronavirus Signs
Now more than ever, businesses have to get the attention of their customers, and you can do that by setting yourself apart with tailor made graphics. Branded signs are the eye-catching, creative ones with the “wow” factor - the ones people notice because of creativity and talk about. These are the signs that are infused with additional brand statements and content that engages your customers in a COVID-19 era.
