The Great Australian Sign Survey is seeking information from all sign makers and is aimed at a broad range of businesses, from traditional ‘signies’ to sign shops, fabricators, installers, wide-format and screen printers, expo and display businesses and textile printers.

“Essentially, if you define yourself as producing signs, printed banners or display materials, 3D signs, architectural or retail signage, digital and illuminated signs, engraved products, vehicle wraps – or anything in between – we want to hear from you,” says Peter Harper, CEO of Visual Connections.  

“This information will be vitally important. It will help set the basis for businesses and suppliers to ensure their future product offerings meet market trends. It will provide the hard data we need to back our representations to government for inclusion in grants, relief packages, training and incentives. And it will inform our ongoing discussions with TAFEs and other training organisations – and our promotions to students who will be the sign makers of tomorrow – to ensure that the appropriate vocational training and career paths are available into the future.”

The survey, managed by consultants Control Zone, is designed to take just a few moments and will ask a range of questions to capture basic data on the size and scope of the sector, product range, methodology and plans for the future. It will also seek information on how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted businesses. 

Those taking the survey are in the draw for 1 of 3 prizes worth over $1000 in total - $500 Hexis products voucher, $250 Control Zone - Snapshot voucher and a $250 AS Fisher & Co. - Business Review voucher.

No individual details will be stored or used in any way other than to compile the overall survey results.
