Signarama Limerick Part of National New Year Sign Contest
LIMERICK PA – The Signarama Limerick signage franchise at 70 Buckwalter Rd. Ste. 407 reports in a Friday (Jan. 3, 2025) e-mail that it’s participating in a national contest that will award free business signage packages, valued at $5,000, to two winners. The Limerick shop is encouraging local companies to enter before the opportunity closes on Jan. 31 (Friday).
There’s no cost involved, Signarama adds. Business owners can go online to choose the industry with which they’re associated, then select a signage package that best suits their needs. Finally, it asks for information about the business and how new signage would benefit it.
Responses are submitted with the click of a button. Agreeing to competition terms and conditions, which likely are worth reading, are required with the submittal.
“Start the year strong by giving your business the standout signage it deserves,” the Limerick Signarama e-mail suggests. The company’s “New Year, New Signage Contest” offers a chance to win a signage makeover that it says could “make a lasting impression in 2025.” Winners are expected to be announced by Feb. 15, it adds.
