We've found many business owners buy electronic message boards and electronic message centers (EMC) without conducting a "due diligence" process. As with any sign investment, it's important to consider where and how the sign will be used, and whether there are local ordinances or community regulations limiting their use. And of course, not all electronic message boards are built with the same standards. Different grades of components can dramatically impact the visibility, durability of the signage, as well as its cost of operation. If you have a question about signage or the services we provide, please ask! We answer each query individually, of course, and post some of the most frequently-asked questions here.
