Retail Signage - Alite Designs & Boreas Gear
Challenge:
Alite Designs and Boreas Gear needed retail signage that would effectively showcase their products in a competitive marketplace. The content had to be both eye-catching and informative, aligning with the companies' outdoor-focused brands. Additionally, in order for these programs to succeed, retail staff needed instructions and inspiration for usage.
Approach:
I worked with the in-house graphic designer to create strategic signage that would grab attention and convey key product benefits quickly. Once the signs were complete, I authored instructional one-sheets for each sign type. This included:
Writing concise, persuasive copy that captured the essence of each product.
Collaborating with designers to ensure the visuals and copy complemented each other seamlessly.
Implementing hierarchical typography and clear calls to action that made the signs easy to read and understand.
Developing one-sheets including product photography with sign usage for our retailers.
Outcome:
The signage contributed to increased foot traffic in stores and higher sales for featured products.
Retailers reported positive feedback about the signs’ clarity and ability to attract customers.

Copywriting & content strategy
