At Signarama Troy, we believe that staying at the forefront of the signage industry is key to delivering the best possible products and services to our clients. To ensure our team is well-versed in the latest trends, technologies, and solutions, we host monthly vendor visits and lunch and learn sessions. These events are more than just a break from the daily routine; they are invaluable opportunities for our team to build relationships with industry leaders and deepen our understanding of the products we offer.
Building Relationships with Industry Experts
CEO Bob Chapa champions the idea that knowledge is power. By inviting vendors to our office, we create a collaborative environment where our team can interact directly with those who design and manufacture the products we use. This hands-on approach ensures that our projects benefit from the latest innovations and best practices in the industry.
Recent Vendor Visits
Howard Industries
Recently, we welcomed Patrick Sutton and his team from Howard Industries for a lunch and learn session. They brought a van full of samples, allowing our team to get an up-close look at their extensive line of exterior signage. We explored aluminum post and panel systems, illuminated and non-illuminated pylon and monument signs, channel letters, wall mount signage systems, and their patented Perma-Banner sign system. This hands-on experience was invaluable in helping our team understand the full range of Howard Industries’ offerings and how best to utilize them in our projects.
Sherwin-Williams
Another enriching session was with Sherwin-Williams, where their team introduced us to advanced coatings technologies. Learning about these technologies helps us deliver superior finished products, enhancing both efficiency and productivity. The insights gained from this session allow our team to make informed decisions about the best coatings to use for different signage applications, ensuring durability and visual appeal.
Avery Dennison Graphics Solutions – North America
Our lunch and learn with Avery Dennison Graphics Solutions – North America was particularly inspiring. The team shared valuable insights on vehicle wraps, wall graphics, and more. They introduced us to new color palettes and creative ideas that can make signage stand out and boost visibility. This session reinforced our commitment to staying innovative and continuously improving our offerings.
The Importance of Continuous Learning
In an industry as dynamic as signage, continuous learning is not just important; it’s essential. By regularly engaging with vendors, we ensure that our team is always informed about the latest products and technologies. This knowledge translates into better project outcomes, as we can confidently recommend and implement the best solutions for our clients.
These sessions foster a culture of curiosity and improvement within our team. Each lunch and learn is an opportunity to ask questions, explore new ideas, and think creatively about how we can enhance our services. This proactive approach to learning helps us push the boundaries of what’s possible in signage, ensuring that we deliver exceptional results every time.
