Don't let that fence go to waste     |    Number 44
 
 

Most business people realize they need some type of primary sign for their business, but the wise ones take advantage of secondary signs as well. A great example of this is how the folks at Riverland Nursery put their fences and gates to work to keep their business from being lost in the scenery.

 

The plants and large trees along the front of the property hide their building. Their primary sign pokes up out of the trees, but the oak trees that line the busy four-lane highway make it hard to see. The trees cannot be legally trimmed to better expose the primary sign, so they opted to use banners to drastically increase their visibility.

 

"The banners really are essential," says Joe Berg of Riverland. "The main sign just isn't visible enough because of the oaks along the highway, so without the banners no one would know we were here."
