During our eight years in business in the San Clemente community, Starfish Signs has had the immense pleasure of seeing many of the businesses we partner with grow and expand. We have worked with a variety of local businesses to provide high-quality, custom interior and exterior signage. Our relationships with these businesses go well beyond the initial transaction of creating their signs — we have loved getting to know the faces behind the businesses, befriending the owners, and becoming regulars at their locations as clients ourselves.
Meet Some of Our Favorite Local Businesses
We have had the privilege of working with businesses throughout San Clemente. Although we could not possibly highlight the achievements of all of our partners in one article, we are exceptionally proud of the following businesses, which remain open to provide essential services to our community during this time. These businesses, like ours, have introduced many shifts to their models (practically overnight!) to ensure customers’ needs are met.
The Cellar
The Cellar is an American-style wine bar featuring coffee, microbrews, and live music. Yes, folks, you really can have it all with these guys. Although we provided The Cellar with some of their original outdoor work, we are so pleased to help them with banners and promotional signage to ensure customers know they can continue to have it all, even if they have to take it out. Furthermore, The Cellar is leveraging its food distribution connections to create a mini-pantry experience that locals can use to supplement their grocery needs without risking a trip to a conventional grocery store.
Barnoa
Another wine bar, Barnoa offers wine, beer, gourmet cheese, and charcuterie. Whether you are looking for an ambient date night with your partner or somewhere to kick back and enjoy the good vibes with your friends, Barnoa is the place for you. We have been working with Barnoa to provide banners to advertise their takeout services, so customers know they can carry out their favorite sips and replicate their Barnoa experience at home with the same excellent food.
Drift Distillery
Drift Distillery is unique in that they plant and harvest all the ingredients that go into its exceptional, high-quality liquors. They have a robust portfolio of spirits that even the most seasoned connoisseur would enjoy browsing. Not only is Drift an icon in our local hospitality industry, but it is also currently taking action to convert the work it does to produce hand sanitizer to help in the fight against COVID-19. We love their innovation!
MedHero
MedHero is a multispecialty urgent care practice that is rapidly expanding as the need for health facilities increases, whether that need is COVID-related or otherwise. These frontline workers have implemented precautions that reserve patients’ spots to reduce transmission in the waiting room and have even begun using telemedicine to get patients assistance more quickly while maintaining the safety of others. As MedHero expands, we are creating signs to announce the launch of their new locations. A beautiful sign can often be the difference between a professional, high-authority business front and one that potential clients turn away from.
Starfish Signs’ Work During This Time
As always, Starfish Signs is proud to leverage our partnerships with local businesses to ensure that all their signage needs are met. Whether organizations need monuments to house their digital signage or digital whiteboards installed to keep up with the latest moves in their industry, Starfish Signs is working to adjust our service model to ensure all clients’ needs are met during this complicated time!
Custom Banners
Especially during COVID-19, it has become increasingly necessary to inform consumers about business changes. Businesses need to let their clients know about new hours, adjusted offerings, or upcoming services.
Our banners are constructed from durable materials (typically vinyl or polyester) and will provide your business with the professional image you need, whether that image is a temporary adjustment or a permanent advertisement of services. These signs are high-impact, quick, and affordable, and we have adjusted our print model to ensure these temporary signs go out to clients as quickly as possible during this time.
Custom Vehicle Graphics
Earlier, we mentioned the impressive, innovative work that Drift is doing to support its community during COVID-19. We are proud to have assisted Drift in its mission by creating vehicle graphics that promote its work.
Messages on a vehicle wrap have a 97% impact rate, making them among the most noticed forms of advertising on the market. The more your community knows about you, the more they will be able to take advantage of your services — raising brand awareness to highlight your authority and, by extension, your company’s overall image.
Custom Acrylic Barriers
Acrylic barriers, where needed, provide vital protection to customers and employees. Otherwise known as plexiglass, these sneeze guards are helping to keep our community safe during this time. As such, we are proud to provide them to local businesses.
We can customize the fit of acrylic barriers to the surfaces where you need them. Your employees will feel their safety is valued as they work behind this clear protective barrier, which can be easily wiped down to prevent the transmission of COVID-19-related particles. Protect your employees while remaining open to serve your community with acrylic barriers.
Custom Floor Graphics
By now, we have all seen floor graphics in play. Whether it is a basic line showing customers how far apart to stand at the checkout or a more elaborate system of signs indicating directions down a supermarket aisle, these graphics are pulling far more than their weight in helping people adhere to social distancing guidelines.
Since floor graphics can attach to all types of substrates — tile, rough cement, and carpeting — they can be useful in indoor or outdoor settings. Starfish Signs is here to support you through this entire process, from envisioning your design to printing on durable vinyl to installing your floor graphics cleanly and evenly on your surface of choice.
Starfish Signs Is Here to Meet Your Needs During This Time
Starfish Signs loves building new architectural signs for your commercial and retail locations. As with our other community partners, we have shifted some of our business focus to ensure we are best meeting clients’ needs during this otherwise challenging time. With that in mind, we are here to provide whatever our customers need — every type of temporary and permanent signage. We’re here to help you through your temporary needs now, and we’ll still be here to help you when this pandemic is over, and we shift our focus to more permanent options.
