How to Dress Your Store to Scream SALE! at the top of its voice…
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my twice daily postings of NEW IDEAS in your RSS feeder. Thanks for visiting!

Forget the WIMPY little half hearted, sale signs that merely whisper: sale…
If you are going to have sale, then for goodness sake GO FOR IT!
SCREAM IT OUT, AT THE TOP OF YOUR LUNGS!!!
When most of the stores I see have sales, it’s as if they are ashamed and want to hide it away from their customers.
The major purpose of a sale is to move bucket loads of stock fast, to convert stuff to cash before the season leaves it in your storeroom for the next 6 -12 months. This is not a time to be wimpy and half hearted, it’s a time to attack and be bold.
When I saw the display above, I was so impressed I drove all the way home to get my camera, and, as the father of a computer addicted 16 year old, a retread on my credit cards.
And all this impact is achieved with inexpensive “off the shelf” display plastic sheeting.

I agree with being loud about it, but wow….haha. Wouldn’t one huge red sign have done the trick without giving a visitor a headache?
