Choosing the right signage for your campaign, union, or organization is a critical decision that can significantly impact your visibility and outreach. With various options available, it's essential to understand the differences between polybag, cardboard, and corrugated yard signs to make an informed choice. Drawing from my experience and insights from The Blue Deal's signage collection, let's explore these options to determine which best suits your needs.
Campaign Duration: For short-term visibility, consider cardboard signs which are perfect for events, rallies, or GOTV efforts lasting days or weeks rather than months. Long-term campaigns benefit from the durability of corrugated signs. Polybag signs, on the other hand, are typically more affordable per unit which is especially significant for large or repeat orders.
Budget Constraints: Assess your budget to determine the balance between cost and quality. Polybag signs offer affordability for large quantities, while corrugated signs provide longevity.
Design Requirements: Consider the complexity of your design. Detailed graphics and multiple colors are better suited for corrugated signs.
Weather Conditions: In areas prone to harsh weather, investing in durable materials like corrugated plastic ensures your message remains intact.
Installation and Transportation: Polybag signs are much lighter than corrugated plastic or cardboard, which reduces shipping costs and simplifies distribution to volunteers.
