The minute someone tells you not to look at something, what's the first thing you want to do? Obviously, you can't wait to catch the slightest glimpse of whatever it is you're supposed to be avoiding. That's just human nature. What about when someone asks you to look at something? Actually, the same result occurs. Why is this? It seems so paradoxical but it's not, really. We human beings are just strongly motivated by vision, which is why advertising with imagery is so powerful. In fact, that same reason is why so many business owners have taken advantage of magnetic signs for their cars to be used as part of their advertising strategy. They know people can't resist looking at their magnetic car signs once they notice them.

The human eye wants variety - the same old clothes, the same old hair, the same old decor in a home- it gets, well, old after a while, doesn't it? Magnetic car signs provide the eye with variety while people are out and about in their daily lives. Rather than overlooking the sea of traffic they are busy trying to get around, people will actually take a couple of seconds to glance at your custom magnetic ...
... car sign, just to break up the visual boredom. And every time someone reads your magnetic car sign, the greater the chances of that person remembering your name when your service or product is needed.
Magnetic Car Signs Get More Exposure Than Print Ads

I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with print advertising - people often go straight to the newspaper to look for sales and other special events. I'm simply suggesting that for a fraction of the cost, you can custom order a magnetic car sign that delivers the same message as a newspaper ad, only your magnetic sign won't get tossed into the recycling the next day. In fact, every time your magnetic car sign goes for a ride, it will receive an average of 130 advertising impressions. Imagine how many times your magnetic sign could be viewed in a year - a couple of million! Because people just can't help but look. You can't buy that kind of advertising in a newspaper!

Not only will your magnetic car sign expose your business to more people than a newspaper ad, you also have a better chance of repeat viewers seeing your magnetic sign over and over again if you live in the same area. And what happens when we see something on a regular basis? We tend to remember it. So magnetic car signs not only get your business noticed, they help keep it in the forefront of people's memories. Why? You should know by now - people can't help but look at your magnetic car sign!
If People Get Bored Looking At The Same Things, Won't They Tire Of My Magnetic Sign?

Now you're thinking! Magnetic car signs are an inexpensive way to advertise. Just create a design, place your order with a quality sign company, and before you know it you will have a magnetic car sign in the shape and design you wanted. This may sound like an expensive service, but the cost of the magnetic material plus the adhesive vinyl images that are bonded to it to create your custom magnetic sign are just not very costly. And the labor costs are low, too - just upload an image onto the digital printer and apply it to the magnetic material.

Because magnetic signs are so affordable, order a few different ones to break up the monotony of your car every now and then. Your message will remain the same, but the visual change will make people's heads turn. And most quality sign companies use a material known as ScratchGuard, which protects vehicles from scratches or rust caused by magnetic signs, so there will be no trace of your former magnetic sign if you decided to change it out or remove it altogether. Magnetic signs are simply a cost effective, interesting, and memorable way to advertise!
Did I Make You Look?

There is really no good reason NOT to order a custom magnetic sign for your vehicle. With a creative visual approach and short, memorable text, people will not be able to ignore your mobile business sign once they see it. And once they see your magnetic sign, they are unlikely to forget it, too. And that's advertising worth looking at twice!
