Red, white and blue on an 18″x24″ rectangular corrugated plastic sign, “Vote So and So for This or That”, stuck haphazardly in a front yard.  Is this jogging a familiar image in your mind?  Most likely.

This description is the standard for political yard signs.  For nearly half of any given year, candidate’s signs paint the landscape with their cookie-cutter style and shape.  Over time, passersby forget what they see and can even get agitated by the sight of so many “weeds” as they drive through neighborhoods.

There is a solution for candidate’s who wish to standout.  CampaignPros.com is now offering special-shaped signs that can give political candidates, and even businesses, a memorable edge.

With six new sign shapes-five-point star, octagon, sheriff star, circle, house and “vote”-CampaignPros.com can give candidate’s a fresh choice when it comes to designing their yard signs.  The choice is no longer narrowed to which rectangle a candidate wants.

“Running a political campaign is largely based on separation from your opponents,” explains Jon Gainer, owner of CampaignPros.com, “You can standout or fit in.”

These special shapes offer an opportunity to layout out text differently, as well as experiment with font sizes.  The material is still the same 100% weatherproof corrugated plastic and they are still erected with the industry standard H frames or new favorite Beefy Stakes.

The new shapes will also appeal to non-political users.  The octagon will be popular with lending companies offering to help “Stop Foreclosure.”  A house-shaped sign will work well with real estate industry and contractors that do work on homes.

“Though CampaignPros.com tends to cater mainly to political campaigns, we do realize that there are other markets that can use what we have to offer,” shares Mike Mathews, Vice President of Sales at CampaignPros.com, “Everybody has to advertise.”

The cost of the new signs is slightly higher than the standard rectangles due to the special die needed, the extra time needed to print and some waste created.  But, CampaignPros believes this additional cost is offset by the shock value of the new design.

So, if you need to figure out a way to be different, if your creative juices are being squashed by the industry’s current offerings, consider looking in to changing your shape.
