Signage is one of the first methods patients have of forming a perception of your practice. Efficient signage performs major communication functions for your business: a chance to gain attention, give information and direction, while providing a platform for building your practice image.
In the last edition, we looked at the role and importance of external signage design in the form of street advertising. Effective shop-front signage design helps people develop a memory of your business name and the products and services you offer.
In order to stand out from the crowd, you must give your practice an image that irresistibly invites. Attractive, effective signage is one of the key elements of your position in the market place.
On-premise signs are the most valuable and efficient means of commercial communication because they are inexpensive, available, practical, easy to use, and directly oriented to the trade area of your business.
Often what your customers see when they approach your business is what makes them decide whether or not to enter the premises. The way your practice looks will directly affect the number of potential patients who walk through your doors.
Signage programs are an integral part of advertising: an on-premise sign communicates to potential customers 24 hours a day, seven days a week, year after year. Every time people pass your business establishment they will see your sign - the mere repetition of the message aids memory.
A recent survey by the Australian Sales Research Bureau showed that 66.5% of new business was attributed to signage! Once you have successfully attracted a new patient into your practice, either via successful exterior signage design or other methods, you have a responsibility to ensure their visit is as positive and as enjoyable as possible.
All necessary information should be clearly displayed and communicated, patient privacy should be considered and directional indicators readily identifiable. To achieve this, create a total environmental statement utilising interior signage that provides consistent clues.
