Signs Now Achieves Record Growth for 2006

SARASOTA, Fla. - Signs Now, A Division of Allegra Network LLC, is wrapping up a successful 2006 with the highest sales and franchise development increase in over ten years. The company stands to gain 20 new franchisees with a 15 percent sales and store increase company wide.

In 2006, Signs Now has recruited new franchise owners country-wide, including locations in Louisiana, Washington, Arizona, Illinois, Missouri, Florida, Georgia, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Maryland, North Carolina, Tennessee, California, Wisconsin and Texas.

“The increases in sales and development are a direct result of the exciting and unique programs we offer potential franchisees, including business-to-business marketing initiatives, our profit mastery program and high-end market positioning and branding,” said Signs Now President Steve White.

In addition to sales numbers and new franchise development, Signs Now is planning strategic changes that will direct the future of the company. Recently, Signs Now completed a brand research study that will provide the company with insights into client expectations, perceptions of its brand across markets, and emerging trends in the signage and graphics industry. White looks forward to the impact this will all for the company and Signs Now franchisees.

“We will use the information gained from this brand research to strengthen the company and we look forward to seeing the results begin to filter through our network,” remarked White.

Since Allegra acquired Signs Now in January 2005, the company has gone through many exciting changes. To begin the year, Signs Now moved their division offices to a larger facility on 6976 Professional Parkway East in Sarasota, Fla. The 6,000 square feet of new office space provides more area for product testing capabilities and an expanded training facility. The headquarters house about 20 employees and serves as home for the more than 240 centers currently in the network.

Several months later, Steve White, Allegra’s executive vice president, was named president of Signs Now. White’s knowledge and expertise as a leader in both the print and franchising industries helps leverage supplier relationships and resources on a larger scale as the company helps its franchise members pursue greater share of the signage market.

With key executives in place and a new base of operations, Signs Now is poised to break more company records in 2007. For more information on Signs Now, call Bernard Haun, vice president of marketing and communications, at (941)747-7747.
