Wayfinding signage is essential when creating a sign package for a multi-family housing development with Sequoia Signs. Whether it’s for a senior living community, apartment complex, country club, or any other multi-family housing, effective wayfinding signage provides many benefits. At Sequoia Signs & Graphics, we specialize in multi-family housing signage from initial consultation, to sign design, to fabrication, and installation.
Benefits of Wayfinding Signs
Wayfinding Signs are often taken for granted by property owners and developers, considered as a last-minute task to be quickly signed off a to-do list for a property development project. Unfortunately, this often results in boring and thoughtless wayfinding signage. An effective wayfinding package can do so much more. Consider these benefits when developing a wayfinding sign program:
Create Brand Awareness
Effective signage placed throughout your property contributes to your branding. The most valuable signs are the wayfinding signs, which provide information while reinforcing brand awareness. Efficiently designed signs can reflect positively on your brand and show that you care for your property. At Sequoia Signs & Graphics, we will incorporate your company branding and match the architectural property to design effective directional signage.
Improve Visitor Experience
The main objective of wayfinding signage is to aid with directions. By investing in Wayfinding Signage, you contribute to the overall experience of the residents and their guests. Poorly designed or non-existent wayfinding signage can reflect negatively on your property. Facilities with effective wayfinding signage look more inviting, resulting in attracting more potential residents.
Increase Property Value
Last but not least, wayfinding signs can actually increase property value. Up to date and professionally designed signs send the message of a well maintained and cared for property. In a residential community this will aid in tenant retention and as a result, increase the property value.

Most likely you will see fleet graphics & wraps on the roads around you on a daily basis. However did you every consider vehicle wraps & graphics for your business? They are a unique and creative way to advertise your brand. At Sequoia Signs & Graphics, serving Concord and East Bay, we offer high quality wide format printing, allowing any design & color for your fleet graphics & wraps. Vehicle advertisement provides several benefits, so continue to read and find out if it’s right for your business.
1. Fleet Graphics & Wraps create brand awareness
Brand awareness is extremely important, whether you are a national company or serving your local community. A branded vehicle fleet creates brand awareness on a local level. In addition to creating brand awareness, it’s an advertising opportunity for your company 24/7. Being on the way to a client or being parked while visiting a client or at night, your fleet graphics & wraps never sleep!
2. Vehicle Graphics are cost effective
Vehicle Graphics are a cost effective way of advertising. While with traditional advertising you rent a specific spot or time slot, vehicle graphics are a one time investment with unlimited returns. This results into a very low advertising cost per impression, making it worth your while. Although Vehicle Graphics are considered a one time investment, check with your sign company about the lifetime of the vinyl to avoid damage to your vehicle.
3. Fleet Graphics are mobile
Fleet graphics are like a moving billboard. Your message will be shown wherever your vehicle is. Every time your company vehicle is being driven, your business is gaining more exposure. Vehicle wraps can achieve greater exposure than other traditional means because your design will be seen all over Concord or any neighboring city.
4. Full Vehicle Wraps protect your vehicle
Considering that most likely your vehicle fleet provides you enough maintenance, a full vehicle wrap can actually protect your vehicle. The vinyl wrap which is installed with a protective laminate, protects your vehicle from light dents and scratches. Furthermore, a full vehicle wrap will protect the original paint from sun exposure. In summary, a full vehicle wrap is a great way to protect your vehicle, especially if you are leasing.

If you’re thinking about updating or adding to your exterior signage for your business in Concord, we think you should strongly consider an eye-catching monument sign. Business is growing in Concord like never before, with all kinds of incentives for business owners to start their companies here. It’s the perfect time to catch the eye of potential new customers or clients with a custom monument sign on the exterior of your business.
For passersby, a monument sign with vivid graphics and custom lettering is an unforgettable way to say, “We are here!”
Growth in Concord, CA
There’s no denying the growth that’s happening in Concord. There are big changes on the horizon, like the completion of The Veranda shopping center, and major companies, including Wells Fargo, committing to bring over 2,200 employees to the area with an 8-year lease at Swift Plaza.
With the 2019 redevelopment of the old Concord Naval Weapons Station as a center where residents can live, work, shop, learn, and play. Thanks to these exciting changes, the city is taking its place as a new leader in commerce in the Bay Area.
As development in Concord continues, it’s important for businesses to be ready to take their companies to the next level. If you’re located near or along Clayton Road, you’re in close proximity to the additions to Swift Plaza and the future redevelopment of the Naval Station. Why not take advantage of the constant publicity a monument sign can provide in this area?
With increased traffic expected in both of these areas, using outdoor signage like a custom monument sign with dimensional letters is a perfect way to promote your business, update your look, and stand out from the crowd.
While Concord continues to grow, with shopping centers like The Veranda and Downtown Pleasant Hill offering housing, food, shopping, and even entertainment around the holidays (like the popular Christmas fair at Downtown Pleasant Hill), the increase in traffic in Concord means it’s the perfect time to boost your advertising with a smart investment like a monument sign.
How Your Monument Sign Can Work For You
According to the Sign Research Foundation, which focuses on how signage can affect a company’s business, 29% of consumers report that they have been drawn to new or unfamiliar business based on an attractive sign, with this trend skewing slightly higher in western states (such as California!).
They also found that both high-quality landmark signage, such as a well-placed and well-designed monument sign, and distinct architectural elements on signage was incredibly effective in their case studies. A monument sign isn’t discerning in who sees it like some other advertising methods- it reaches every demographic, dramatically multiplying your visibility in the community.
