How Can We HELP You?!

Who represents you and your business

Would you trust this sales person with your future?

Do you understand sufficient about MARKETING SMALL BUSINESSES to help your business SURVIVE and THRIVE – or do you understand the difference between SUICIDE and KILLING ONESELF?

How Can We Help You?

This excellent line used by FNB to promote their bank is truly excellent on so many levels  and also tends to encompass the way SignForce feels about our customers, even though we are tiny in comparison to FNB. We also hope we listen better!

Much like most relationships in life, we at SignForce understand that it is sadly impossible for us to be everything to everyone. That is why in the past SignForce have only focused on providing the best quality signs we can at fair prices.

That said, we have been observing more and more small businesses struggling with their marketing, trying their best to succeed in these very trying times – especially in countries like South Africa where the government seems hell bent on implementing every half baked idea designed to kill enterprise while the politicians sell their stupid ideas as the holy grail to save the masses from said thieving government.

Maybe it is the lack of government that is leading to so many more businesses failing, or maybe it is the concern for families losing their livelihoods that has pushed the management at SignForce to try assist more small to medium size businesses to market and promote themselves using both  SIGNS and ONLINE MARKETING.

Since SignForce is also a small business we are acutely aware of the difficulty that small to medium businesses have juggling all the day to day activities, never mind the necessity to MARKET, MARKET and MARKET the business some more in order to keep a steady stream of business coming in.

SignForce are in the fortunate position to be able to assist small to medium businesses with both online and signage marketing in order to allow the business to focus on it’s core activity – whether that is providing a service or multiple products.

If you would like assistance with getting your business off the gound or to help your business grow, why not contact Arnold of SignForce to see exactly how We Can HELP You.

Anyone Can Make a Sign!

Illuminated Signs

Internally Illuminated Sign

Like us, I am sure many of our competitors have heard client’s make the comment that ANYONE CAN MAKE A SIGN. In fact SignForce have seen it more than once where what we would view as prospective clients call us in t get technical details so they can make their own signs.

While, at some level, it is true that almost anyone – literally anyone – can make a sign – yes, even the drawing your two year old draws using wax crayons can be considered a sign – in order to make a TECHNICAL signs that WORK – with work being defined as a sign that achieves it’s objective or objectives – may take a little more practice, experience and expertise.

As with all spectator sports, it always looks very easy to get it 100% right 100% of the time. That is the beauty of being a spectator. When, for example,  one faces the likes of Ivan Lendl on a tennis court – yes been there at Flushing Meadows – I can assure you the reality is WAY MORE SCARY!

Because things are not always as they seem in real life – and we certainly don’t know what we don’t know – if you are looking for a sign that makes your business STAND OUT, that will WORK and that is COMPETITIVELY PRICED, SignForce is the team to talk to.

With MANY years experience in SIGNAGE and general MARKETING, SignForce can offer you unique input on what sign should work best for your business and your environment, a skill and benefit to you that differentiates SignForce from many of our competitors.

Sandblast Effect Vinyl – the unsung HERO of interior decoration

Posted on by

Sandblast Effect Vinyl could be considered one of the most under stated products in the tool box of any sign maker.

Traditionally sandblasting was a messy process requiring specialist equipment so it could not be done on site and was permeant! If you wanted to change or remove the graphic, you replaced the glass.

With sandblast effect vinyl neither of these issues remain true. The work can be done on site as it has little to no mess, it does not take too long to complete, it can be done in a wide range – almost any design – from blocks to intricate designs – and it can be removed and replaced with (relatively if you know what you are doing) little effort, and a little time.

One great advantage of sandblast effect vinyl is it can also be used to create custom safety features on glass panes – think of custom designs for your home or office glass sliding door or for privacy. The uses are only limited by one’s imagination.  SignForce will gladly assist with your designs – including the use of colour as we have the facilities to print onto the sandblast film.

If you are looking for a simple upgrade to increase privacy or security or simply for the aesthetic effect, Sandblast Effect Vinyl should be considered to be your new best friend.

SignForce would also appreciate becoming your new best friend – happy to help with any advise, designs or application – of your sandblast effect miracle.

Contact SignForce on +27 (0)11 440 7524 or info@signforce.co.za or find us at  http://www.signforce.co.za

What Value does your current sign supplier add to your business?

Posted on by


This vehicle, decorated as per specifications for SUPA NOVA ELECTRICAL POWER & PLUMBING is a simple example of vinyl decorated vehicle branding creating a MOBILE advertisement for the business.

Vehicle branding is always a great idea if you want people to SEE you, to know that you are associated with specific clients and to create more awareness of your brand.

We at SignForce assume that this is general knowledge and that all our competitors do the same work. We may not all have the same inks (original inks last longer) and we may not all use the same printers (at SignForce we swear by Roland) but we effectively ALL print and apply vinyl branding to you, our client’s vehicle.

What makes SignForce, with over 20 years experience – almost 60 in combined experience – different is that we have the knowledge to ADVISE and make a positive impact on your marketing plan , and we also strive to promote our clients. This  promotion is irregular and generally online, as but we believe that every client of ours looks to SignForce to do MORE than simply provide good quality products at competitive prices.

If you are looking to spend money on signage and feel that you could benefit from some advise and additional promotion, contact SignForce so we can assist you.

Contact SignForce on +27 (0)11 440 7525 or info@signforce.co.za or visit our website on http://www.signforce.co.za

Solid Metal Signs

Brass signs

Brass signs

In a world of JUNK, built in obsolescence, instant gratification, cheap materials, no concern for longevity (until it needs to be replaced which is invariably too soon, especially for cheap materials), it is always comforting to know that solid, NATURAL METAL signs – as in BRASS, ALUMINIUM, COPPER and STEEL (including STAINLESS STEEL) are still available.

Whether you are in the market for a plaque or cut out material, natural, long life, SOLID metal signs create a lasting impression  of CLASS, REFINEMENT and TIMELESSNESS.

As with all signage contrast is VERY IMPORTANT which is why the featured BRASS sign on the BLACK background works so well.

A similar effect can be created with copper.

If you are in the market for a sign that will weather with class, contact SignForce now on +27 (0)11 440 7525 or info@signforce.co.za
