"How much money should I budget for a new sign?"

The following estimates are based on information on the Pricing page that proceeded this page and includes all features.  It is a ball-park "budget" estimate of the general cost of an installed sign.  Because of the huge impact a new sign has on a business you may want to budget considerably more, depending on your particular needs.

    The cost is roughly identical for either fluorescent OR first-surface LED cabinets.

4' x 8' single-face illuminated wall sign, installed: $3,500.00.

3' x 12' single-face illuminated wall sign, installed: $3,500.00.

"Our brand new sign looks terrible when it lights.  All splotchy and uneven.  The company that installed it refuses to correct the problem.  It is killing our business.  Fix it, but keep us informed as to the cost."

Delores Vasquez, Nations Video  (They spent $2,000 repairing their brand-new sign.)

“After being ripped-off by one sign company, who took my several-thousand-dollar deposit but never delivered my sign, I was nervous.  I’m sure glad I met you guys!”

 Paul Lewis, Jubilee Mortgage

Choose from four (4) different ways to pay for your wall sign.

Save your cash to operate your business.

We will help you apply for financing that allows you to make NO down payment with 0% APR for the first 12 to 15 months, depending on the plan you select, so long as you make timely payments.

The companies we associate with allow you to pay-off your loan any time you wish.

Signs Manufacturing does not lease signs, but we do work with leasing companies that do!

How would you like to get a $5,000 sign for only $161 a month?  What if you could include some of your other business equipment (computers, machines, etc.) as part of the package?

If you want to lease or lease/purchase, rather than purchase your signage outright, and need help in arranging a lease, please let us know.

Our leasing companies can combine our signage with other equipment you need in one lease or lease/purchase package.  Equipment such as point-of-sale computerized cash-register systems, telephone systems, security systems, manufacturing machinery, etc. can all be leased.

All signage maintenance costs can be included in the lease package.

Leasing gives you the option to upgrade your signage package, to change your look, at no additional cost at the end of the lease period.

We offer a discount for purchases by cash or check.

If we are manufacturing and/or installing a newly constructed sign on a newly constructed building, or a new free-standing sign, the State of Texas only requires Sales/Use Tax to be paid on our cost of the materials, NOT the full price of the sign, because of the “Separated Contract” we will offer you.

Our invoices are the controlling part of a “Separated Contract.”  In the instances above we will provide you with an invoice which is written to reflect Sales/Use Taxes for the materials only.

This is an average savings of 80% of the usual Texas Sales/Use Taxes!

Because of the 2008 Economic Stimulus Act the Federal Government allows businesses to directly deduct up to $250,000 from their income for capital investment; only amounts over this must be depreciated, and under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) the depreciation deduction can be as high as 1/3 of the cost.

These deductions apply to purchases of assets that are used to operate your business.  Things like SIGNS!

At a 28% income tax rate you could reduce your tax bill by up to $70,000!

The full cost of applicable items is deductible whether-or-not the item has been fully paid for. 

If you finance, or lease/purchase a sign you could write off the full purchase price this year while only paying 12 (or fewer) payments.  This year your sign payments may be entirely reimbursed by the government thru reduced taxes, possibly with money left over.

We are obviously not tax consultants, this is what our CPAs tell us.  Check with your tax professional or visit the Internal Revenue Service website at www.irs.gov.

* Assumes 10,000 cars per day – a very conservative figure for ANY business street, only 1 person in each car, and only a 10 year useful life for the sign.  ALL very conservative!
