A-Frame & Yard Signs for Jarvis Surgical in Westfield, MA
Aug 9, 2026 by
Sometimes the most effective advertising isn't the most expensive—it's simply being visible where people are already looking. Whether it's promoting a grand opening, advertising a sale, directing traffic, or recruiting new employees, portable signs remain one of the most affordable and effective marketing tools available to businesses.
We recently had the opportunity to produce custom A-frame signs and yard signs for Jarvis Surgical in Westfield, Massachusetts. The primary goal was to support the company's hiring efforts by creating bold, easy-to-read signs that immediately grab attention from passing traffic and visitors entering the facility.
Recruitment has become increasingly competitive, especially in manufacturing, healthcare, and specialized industries. Many companies invest heavily in online job advertisements but overlook one of the simplest marketing opportunities—their own location. Thousands of vehicles pass commercial buildings every day, making professionally designed hiring signs an excellent way to reach local job seekers already living and working nearby.
For Jarvis Surgical, we created custom A-frame sidewalk signs featuring a clean "NOW HIRING" message along with the company branding. The simple, high-contrast design allows the message to be read quickly from a distance while maintaining a professional appearance that reflects the company's image.
In addition to the A-frame signs, we also produced matching yard signs that can be placed around the property or at additional locations to further increase visibility. Using multiple signs creates repeated exposure, helping reinforce the hiring message to commuters who travel the same route each day.
Why A-Frame Signs Still Work
Digital marketing is important, but physical signs continue to play a major role in attracting customers and employees.
Unlike online advertisements that disappear after a few seconds, an A-frame sign works every hour your business is open. It reaches people who are already in the area and encourages immediate action.
Businesses commonly use A-frame signs for:
Hiring announcements
Grand openings
Daily specials
Promotional sales
Event advertising
Directional signage
Sidewalk marketing
Open house events
Retail promotions
Seasonal campaigns
Because they're portable, businesses can easily reposition them throughout the day to maximize visibility while remaining flexible for changing promotions.
Why Yard Signs Are a Smart Investment
Yard signs continue to be one of the most cost-effective forms of outdoor advertising.
They're lightweight, weather resistant, and easy to install while providing excellent visibility near roads, parking lots, commercial properties, and event locations. Businesses often use them for recruiting, construction projects, political campaigns, real estate, schools, churches, fundraising events, and community announcements.
One of the biggest advantages is affordability. A single professionally printed yard sign can continue promoting a business for months, making it an excellent return on investment compared to many other advertising methods.
Designed for Durability
Both the A-frame graphics and yard signs were produced using high-quality materials designed for outdoor use. UV-resistant printing helps maintain vibrant colors while durable substrates withstand changing weather conditions, allowing the signs to remain professional even after extended outdoor exposure.
The clean typography and simple layout ensure the message can be understood within seconds—something that's especially important for drivers passing by at normal traffic speeds.
Supporting Business Growth
Projects like this demonstrate that signage isn't only about branding—it's also a valuable business development tool.
Whether you're hiring employees, announcing a new location, promoting an event, or advertising a special offer, professionally designed signs help communicate your message clearly and consistently.
For companies experiencing growth, recruiting the right employees is just as important as attracting new customers. Visible hiring signs allow businesses to reach local talent that may not be actively searching online but notices opportunities while driving through the community.
