Festival season is upon us, and it seems like every weekend there’s a chance to see a music festival, art festival, food festival, or one of Cincinnati’s famous church festivals.

When you’re facilitating a festival, you need all kinds of custom signs, for advertising before the festival, directing patrons during the festival, and giving a shout out to your sponsors.

There are 4 big ways you can mess up this signage. Make sure you’re not doing any of them.

If you’re like me, buying a product or service you’ve never used before creates a certain amount of apprehension. I like to know what I’m getting, I like to know what’s expected of me, and I like to know what I can expect of the person providing the service. I like to have some sort of gauge of the industry’s standard customer service, so I know if I’m being treated poorly or if I’m being given exceptional service. If you’ve never used a service though, how are you supposed to know?

We have many customers who come to us for a specific type of vinyl graphics, not knowing that we provide other services as well. Today we’re going to highlight one of our favorite customers – Three Rivers School District/Taylor High School – and show you all the different types of graphics they use around their buildings.

Last week, some mysterious billboards popped up in several cities saying things like, “Start Me Up – Thursday” with the Rolling Stones’ logo. Their Twitter account has started using the hashtag #SatisfactionThursday with a link for people to sign up for updates. No announcement has been made, but people are guessing a US tour announcement is around the corner

We’re doing a Throwback Thursday to start off the New Year. There are so many resolutions to finally fix that one thing you’ve been meaning to solve since last July, and this story will help with that creative spark. How many companies say “creative problem solving” is one of their core values? A million, but that’s so abstract, what does it even mean? This story shows you what that means to Crux. This is a project we completed about a year ago, but it’s a great representation of how we work with our customers, and how we can help solve that one thing that’s been driving you crazy but you just don’t have time to figure out.

There’s no doubt billboards are our outdoor advertising branch’s top product. You may have noticed our recent re-branding to reflect their popularity. Highway billboards might be the most familiar form of out-of-home advertising, but what if you’re a smaller company who doesn’t have the budget for a billboard?
