Sign-A-Rama Franchise Information

Every business needs signs. And there's no better way to tap into this lucrative $12 billion-plus market than with a Sign-A-Rama franchise.

We are the world's largest sign franchise, with 850 full-service sign stores in 50 countries worldwide and have been rated #1 in industry for 8 years running by Entrepreneur Magazine.

Each of our stores is independently owned and operated, offering an array of sign-making services and localized attention. Yet each is also part of a global company that believes in taking a world-class approach to craftsmanship and customer service.

As a franchisee, you'll be able to offer a full range of the sign-making services that businesses need with a brand name they've come to trust and respect. Just as significant, you'll get the benefit of time-tested business concepts that have worked for hundreds of other stores throughout the world.

Best of all, you'll get the full support of the Sign-A-Rama team - a group that is committed to providing you with the training, consulting, equipment and resources you need to make your Sign-A-Rama store the sign of a successful business.

Location, Location, Location

 A business's location can make or break its success - which is why every Sign-A-Rama store's site has been carefully selected with factors like traffic patterns and potential customers in mind.

We do the hard work of researching locations for every potential Sign-A-Rama franchisee and will even help you with negotiating your lease and store build-out.

But here's the beauty: We do this before you become an official franchisee. After all, we know that going into business for yourself is a big decision, and we want you to be 100 percent confident that your store location is truly the right place for you.

Only when you're comfortable with your location, lease terms and marketing area will we proceed with the next phase - making you an official franchisee and helping you with start-up.

Training, Set-up, and Support

One of the things you'll notice about all Sign-A-Rama franchisees is that they have an uncommonly high degree of expertise about sign-making and operating a business - an expertise they gained through our four-step franchise training program, which many say is one of the most extensive in the franchising industry.

Your Sign-A-Rama franchise fee includes:

• A 2-week introductory training program at Sign-A-Rama University located at our corporate headquarters in West Palm Beach, Florida (including travel and lodging expenses), where you'll learn the ins and outs of everything from sign production to bookkeeping.
• A week on the job training with an existing Sign-A-Rama owner, at his or her store putting your classroom training to use.
• 2 week training at your store from one of our experienced operations advisors, who will help you set up your equipment and put a marketing program in place to help you launch your store.
• Plus our regional offices are always available to provide additional training to you or your employees free of charge - and to provide you with the ongoing guidance you need to grow your business.

Additional Benefits

One of the greatest things about being a Sign-A-Rama franchisee is that you get the best of both worlds: the satisfaction of owning your own local business and the perks that comes from being part of a large global company.
