Getting back to business with Sussex Banners
Is your business getting back to work? As the country emerges from lockdown into the 'new normal', safety and security at work are more important than ever. Sussex Banners can help you make your workplace Covid-safe with signage that works.
The basics of safety banners
The pandemic has meant a huge upheaval for business. The public's priority is now to stay safe and social distancing is more important than ever as we get back to normal. But as a company, how do you reassure your customers?
If you've never worked with safety signage before, there are three important steps to ensure that your post-pandemic strategy helps in your business's effort to keep customers and clients safe, and to make them feel as comfortable as possible:
Use clear language
Your signs should give people the information they need to act safely or follow a one-way system for social distancing
Use the right location
When positioning your back-to-work signage make sure it's positioned where people can see it before getting too close or going the wrong way in a one way system
Use common sense
Mixed or multiple messages can be confusing and will ultimately be ignored. Keep a consistent message and design across all your coronavirus related signage so the message is relevant, timely and actionable
The new normal in the workplace
While no-one knows how long the pandemic will last, what is clear is that it's already had a profound effect on our business and work culture. Many large employees are already looking to rationalise their office space and some businesses are having to adjust to changing lockdown information daily.
Banners and signs are therefore a highly effective way to ensure that offices, businesses and retail premises stay Covid-safe by enforcing social distancing through the use of clear floor graphics and banners.
Our pre-designed signs work together to avoid confusing messaging and to make the implementation of government guidelines on social distancing and hygiene as simple as positioning a banner.
When it comes to marketing, your pre-existing signage may not be enough to cover all your messaging needs. Review your pre-existing signage and decide on what can be repurposed to advertise your presence. Our clear and simple safety banners are designed to stand out yet work in sync with your pre-existing signage to create clear paths and messaging for your customers.
Benefits of banners for your business
At Sussex Banners we create custom banners for any business, so we can help you to keep your customer base informed about whatever's happening from sales to temporary closures.
If you've repurposed your cafe as a local grocery store or you're offering a drive-through service rather than a sit down restaurant, we can help you to educate your customers about what's on offer. Banners are a cost effective way to side line currently redundant signage while clearly indicating exactly what changes are currently being made to your business.
The faster you can inform customers of new opening hours and/or new services and products in the current environment, the quicker you'll let them know how your business has adapted to servicing their current needs. Our pre-designed signs are an affordable and effective way to get the message across and can be quickly redeployed wherever they're needed.
Custom banners for your business
Your banners need to do two critical things. First they need to reassure employees and customers that your business offers a safe and secure environment, especially for those who are still unsure about returning to the workplace.
Second, they need to inform your customers that you're open for business. There's no better way to achieve these objectives than with well designed temporary signage where it will be most effective.
Custom banners are a highly effective way to get passers-by to take notice of your business. Our clearly worded and brightly coloured signs will help you to get the 'we are open' message across in a highly relatable and cost-effective way. Once you realise the practicality and ROI of banners you can upgrade to custom signs that reflect the current aims and aspirations of your business in these unusual times.
Custom banners are also hugely flexible, available in a wide range of materials and capable of being printed with high quality graphics as well as text. Our affordable pop up roller banners and sanitising stations can be set up anywhere, giving visible prompts and helping staff and customers adapt to the new way of doing things.
Focus on social distancing
Social distancing and hygiene measures in the workplace aren't likely to be going away any time soon. With our affordable and ready-to-use banners, you'll provide simple messaging and a clear reminder that measures like frequent hand sanitising and staying 2m apart are of paramount importance.
Implement our back-to-work banners and you'll find it's much easier for employees and customers to make the necessary changes to their daily routines to keep everyone safe.
Staying safe is critical to the safe running of your business but these are still anxious times for many of us. A selfies banner with an inspirational message could be one way to bind your team together and help them tackle the challenges of the new normal together. Inspirational banners with uplifting messages can help to boost the morale of customers and employees.
