Know Your Audience<\/p>\n<p>Before writing the message, think of specifically who you are writing to: moms, dads, retirees, working professionals, students, etc. This streamlines your message so instead of writing to many groups of people at once you are only writing to one.

If you focus your sign on that demographic, they will feel connected and want to contact you to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>2. Think Twitter<\/p>\n<p>Tweets must be 140 characters or less. Even though it is hard to get everything into that short amount of space, it is easy for viewers to quickly digest the information before they start losing interest.\u00a0 When deciding what to put on your sign, try to make it the length of a Twitter post, and you will see how viewers really do stay plugged in. Some even recommend sign advertising to use six words or less. Try it out and see what you come up with.<\/p>\n<p>3.
