General LED Electronic Message Center

 Cost Information

"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.

One-color interior 6"  x 80" wall or window signs are approximately $2,000.

One-color interior 12"  x 80" wall or window signs are about $4,000.

One-color exterior wall 4' x 8' signs are approximately $12,000.

One-color double-faced 15" x 8' exterior signs (one line of text) for a pole, pylon, or monument sign add approximately $11,000.

One-color exterior double-faced 3' x 8' signs (two or three lines of text) for a pole, pylon, or monument sign add about $17,500.

Full-color double-faced 5' x 10' exterior signs (five or more lines of text) for pole, pylon, or monument signs add approximately $38,000.

Full-color double-faced Electronic Message Center billboards (12' x 48') are about $750,000.

Also explore our NEW "Cheap Message Centers."  These may get you the attention you need, for less money.

But, please, contact us to develop an exact plan to meet your particular needs - for free (see our "Design & Marketing" page!)

If you are planning for the future, please bookmark our website as a "Favorite" so you can find us when you are ready.

Thank you.  This is what we do to buy groceries!

What Our Message Center Pricing Does NOT Include:

"Our electronic-message-centers were nightmares.  Even though they were only 2 years old the manufacturer refused to service them."

Major Vincent, Salvation Army

 

"Our LED electronic-message-center, which cost us over $28,000, failed when it was 2 weeks old.  The company that installed it refuses to repair it - saying it can't be fixed.  The manufacturer refuses to fix it also.  Please repair or replace it."

Mark McCarthy, Harvest Christian Fellowship  (We had to replace it, they had to sue the manufacturer and installer.)

 

"I cannot express how disappointed we are to learn that our two-year-old $70,000 message center cannot be repaired.  I obviously wish we had purchased a good one from you."

Apostle Lobias Murray, Full Gospel Holy Temple

Four (4) Different Ways to Pay

Choose from four (4) different ways to pay for your message center.CONSERVE YOUR NEST EGG.  0 DOWN, 0% INTEREST.

Conserve Your Nest Egg™

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 on Time™ Lease

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

How would you like to get a $10,000 sign for only $214 a month, or a $50,000 sign for $1,121 a month?

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.

Credit Cards Accepted

VISA, MASTER CARD, AMERICAN EXPRESS, DISCOVER ACCEPTED.

Cash Accepted

We offer a discount for purchases by cash or check.

Potential Texas Sales/Use Tax Savings – Separated Contract

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 Texas Sales/Use Taxes for the materials only.

How Your Sign Saves You Federal Tax Dollars

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.

The “Average” Cost of Advertising

 (U.S. Small  Business Administration figures)

Advertising Medium

Cost Per 1000 Exposures

Newspaper $ 7.39
Television $ 6.26
Radio $ 5.47
Average Channel Letter Sign* $  .14
Average Free-Standing Sign* $  .27
Average Free-Standing w/ Electronic Message Center* $ 1.17

* 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!
