Posters
Back-to-school posters are a necessity. Whether you run a grocery store, a consumer goods business or operate a boutique that will stock some school uniforms, do not leave shoppers guessing. If you are offering products that fit under the back-to-school umbrella, place customized posters in your store windows to guide buyers to your venue. Remember, you do not need to be selling pencils and paper to qualify. Sturdy shoes, socks and chic backpacks are just as sought after during this buying time.
Banners
identify the specialty shelves that you dedicate to school supplies and related goods. Larger stores in particular try to make it easier on associates and shoppers by setting aside a number of shelves for the goods that will be stocked during this time. This allows your staff to ensure proper stocking while buyers do not have to comb your store’s shelves for all the things that they need. Outdoor banners identify your store as a back-to-school headquarters for families who want to cut down on making multiple buying trips. When you put colorful banners next to your entry door, shoppers will be able to see from far away that you are offering something special. With their interest piqued, you are much more likely to get more foot traffic.
Point of Purchase Signs

Window Graphics
The expert back-to-school sales signage professionals at Cowtown Graphics & Signs get plenty of orders for decals and even partial window perfs. The goal here is to use the window panes that are not really used for active marketing and turn them into advertising machines. Something as simple as happy grade schoolers wearing uniforms and backpacks can be a powerful indicator that your store stocks the popular goods.
If you have a lightbox cabinet sign with a message board, do not neglect to address shoppers now with your specials. As the beginning of schools draws near, these buyers will remember who is offering discounts on paper goods, electronics and other necessities. This is also the time when sports teams start their training again, and sports gear will be in higher demand. When your message board advertises the availability of popular brands now, shoppers are more likely to make a trip to your store when they are ready to buy.
