Magnetic Signs for vehicles are the best entry level advertising for small businesses.

 
As you know, many businesses start out as concepts in a garage, den or basement. I personally, am especially familiar with this process. When I formed Accent Signs and Graphics, I started my business in the spare bedroom of my house. I worked 12-16 hours every day to increase my customer base and improve the quality and service of my business. As my reputation grew, I found that word of mouth was by far the best venue for referrals and new customers. Out in the field, I would often be approached by the neighboring businesses of my customers for repairs or new installs of signs they had in mind. More often than not a direct conversion occurred when a combination of call to actions were executed. They would see my truck and my branding, remember my company from a previous conversation with my existing customer and would approach me as I performed other work and sometimes would stop by to speak to me while I was on another job. This led me to one conclusion that is always important to consider, the importance of branding.

The value of a good reputation is priceless, however, without having a call to action presented to a customer via a recognized brand, you lose the advantage of presenting your goods or services to a potential customer. This is where magnetic signs come in. For one, they are extremely effective and inexpensive. Secondly, they do not damage your vehicle or affect the resale value of the vehicle like wraps and permanent vinyl graphics do. Lastly (and most importantly), the level of exposure a potential client gets to your business, goods or service is unlimited. Suppose you have a side business and a day job. Let's say your vehicle is parked on a street and gets passed by 200 cars an hour. While you were working, 1600 potential clients took a look at your brand or service. That is 8000 drivers a week, not to mention passengers. Any marketing professional will tell you that if you can get your brand, product or service in front of a half a million people within one year for $30.00 that choosing magnetic signs for an fledgling business is a "no brainer".

Student Driver Signs


Even after your child attends driving school, most states still have a number of hours of practice driving with an adult of legal driving age. This responsibility usually falls on good ol’ Mom & Dad.

That being said, all parents of driving age teens should consider a small investment for peace of mind during lessons. Not only will the student driver magnetic sign allow your child to relax, you as their parent, will also feel more at ease in an already stressful situation.

With the signs on the vehicle, you will alert other motorists that you have a student behind the wheel. When most drivers see a student is nearby or in front of them, they will not drive aggressively, stay back a little farther from your tailgate, and know that sudden, responsive maneuvers may be necessary. To sum it up, the student driver car magnets help other motorists drive more defensively while near your vehicle.

Being in the magnetic sign industry, we are often asked a lot of questions regarding student driver signs. The most popular one is whether or not they are exclusively for Driver Education Instructors, or if it is legal for parents to use them while their child is logging hours behind the wheel. Although each state has different driving laws, none have a law against a sign on your vehicle that reads student driver. As a licensed parent driver try and reflect on the time when you first got behind the wheel with mom or dad and the nervousness set in. I can remember when I started driving, Dad got mad, I drove worse, lesson over.

Student driver signs for new drivers and teen drivers are a must have for all driving instructors and for parents that are continuing with driving lessons after driver education class is over.

Also available with many online retailers are rookie driver and new driver magnets that are a perfect compromise for the teen that has been driving for longer, but has recently acquired their license.  

The most economical place to purchase student driver sign products would be from an online retailer. The local sign shop will be more costly.
