Custom Business Signs in Ashland, KY
Your sign is doing work before anyone walks in. It tells people you exist, that you are open, and — fairly or not — how seriously you take your own business. Area Advertising designs and produces business signage for storefronts, offices, lobbies, and entrances across Ashland and the Tri-State: storefront and window signage, dimensional lettering, reception and lobby signs, directional and wayfinding signs, hours and door graphics. What we spend the most time on is the part people skip: legibility at the distance and speed your customers are actually approaching from. A sign read from a sidewalk and a sign read from a four-lane road are different signs, even with the same logo on them. Bring us the space — a photo of the storefront and rough measurements is plenty to start — and we will work back from where it needs to be seen to what it should be made of and how big the lettering has to be.

Common Questions
FAQ
What kinds of business signs do you make?
Storefront and window signage, lobby and reception signs, dimensional lettering, directional and wayfinding signs, and door graphics. Tell us what the sign has to do and where it is going, and we will recommend an approach rather than sell you a product.
Do you design the sign or only produce it?
Both. Bring finished artwork and we will produce it. Bring a logo, a photo of the space, and a rough idea, and our team will develop the design with you.
What do you need from me to quote a storefront sign?
A photo of the space and rough measurements gets us most of the way. It also helps to know how far back people see it from — across a parking lot, from a passing road, or from the sidewalk — because that drives the size and the materials more than anything else.
Do you help with installation?
Talk to us about the specific sign and location. Installation depends heavily on the type of sign, the building, and what the property owner or municipality requires, so it is worth raising early rather than after the sign is built.
Do I need a permit for a business sign?
Sometimes, depending on your municipality, the type of sign, and whether it is illuminated or attached to the building. Check with your local office before committing to a size or placement — it is a much cheaper conversation to have first.
How much does a business sign cost?
It varies more than anything else we make, because size, material, and mounting all move the number. Every sign is quoted individually, free and with no obligation. Get a free quote ↗
