Signage One

Signage One is right on Saidabad Road in Champapet. We are in Shop No. 1, so we’re pretty easy to spot if you’re driving by or walking on the sidewalk. Champapet is a lively area, and being on the main road means there’s never a quiet moment. We’ve been here for a while, making signs for all sorts of people and small shops. The workshop is small, but it’s ours. We have tools scattered around and pieces of metal and plastic everywhere on the workbenches. It’s a bit of a mess, but that’s how a real workshop should look. My brother and I usually handle the work ourselves. We don't have a big marketing budget or any salespeople. Most people just see our shop while they are stuck in traffic on Saidabad Road and decide to stop in to ask a question. It’s a very local way of doing things. We’ve seen the neighborhood change quite a bit since we first started. There are more shops now and the road is much busier than it used to be. We just keep doing what we’ve always done. It’s honest work and it pays the bills at the end of the month. We don't make any big promises, we just try to get the signs finished as fast as we can. Being at Shop No. 1 has been good for us. It feels like we are really part of the street.
