Bob Bronk, Executive Director

The goal of This ediTion of The imagemakers resource guide is To provide relevanT valuable informaTion that will assist the industry in conducting business across the country. Given Canada’s large geographic area, out sourcing and conducting business in another region has become common place. This often can create unexpected difficulties due to the ever changing rules and regulations of each province. This “checkerboard” effect is also present in the United States where they have 50 jurisdictions, not including federal and frequently, additional county regulations. This guide will evolve each year as it will become more detailed as the industry communicates what it needs and unfortunately, regulations and red tape tend to increase over time. We trust it will become an important tool and we appreciate any suggestions that you may have that will enhance its value and usefulness. The Imagemakers Trade Show returns to Toronto this September 26 & 27. Attending trade shows are efficient uses of time in the sense that a company can review new products & techniques, network, and attend educational seminars all in one day. Contrast this with multiple visits and appointments from sales staff, travel time and money to attend seminars, and difficulties in networking when there is not a structured event. The issue becomes can you afford not to attend? There is also the perception that the show is only for companies purchasing large pieces of equipment, or that it’s all “digital”, or its only neon and LEDs. That fact is there is a diversified array of exhibitors catering to the wide spectrum of activities and market niches that exist in today’s market. Exhibitor profiles are posted on the SAC web site so you can determine which exhibitors in advance you need to see. Another incorrect perception is that a trade show is really only “a bunch of high pressure salesman trying to get me to buy something I don’t need”. This is simply not valid in this day and age. Suppliers realize in order for sustained success there needs to be a win-win relationship between themselves and their customers. If suppliers can help their customers make more money using their products wisely and efficiently a win-win relationship is formed, as opposed to the “one sale, take the money and run” notion that is outdated and simply does not work. In addition there are always new suppliers and products entering the market each year, and given Canada’s geography and the high number of industry participants there are constraints on how many companies suppliers can visit. Are you sure your company is up to date? Can you create an edge over your competition because you understand and recognize that technology and techniques are rapidly changing and you adjust accordingly? The solution is attending this trade show and we hope to see you there. Please review our web site for all the details www.sac-ace.ca/consac.

With companies splashing out big bucks in marketing campaigns to get their message across, how they attract interest has become an indicator that sets a company apart from its competition. From attracting new customers, branding a message, helping to create impulse sales, directing drivers, enhancing the look of a community, retail environment or business, signs are integral. Regardless if they are large or small, signs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both interior and exterior â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are primary marketing tools. From using the latest in LEDs, flexible tubing, projection imaging, video and digital images, the impact of lighting and signage is big business. 2008 resource guide | 9

Technology is ever changing and new innovations and products are entering the marketplace. Companies are competing for market share in their industry and clients want their projects delivered in record time and at affordable prices. As advances in technology grow, the products that are now available are more life-like, energy efficient and cost-effective than ever. The outdoor signage segment of the industry is growing strong as companies shift marketing dollars to the outdoor market. In the U.S. alone, over $6.8 billion was spent on outdoor advertising in 2003. The combination of traditional media with newer forms of outdoor media like LEDs,

fibre optics and video technology, can significantly increase the overall awareness of a company’s brand. Retail outlets are covered with messaging. Roadways boast warning messages on giant overheads. Companies cover buildings and the ground with eye-catching projected images. Signs serve as beacons to a final destination over old-fashioned directions. When designed effectively, signs can deliver time-sensitive messages and foster “top-ofmind” awareness as well as help to bolster a company’s bottom line. A recent study by the University of California at Berkley analyzed 20,000 purchases by over 4000 customers in 14 cities. The conclusion was that over two

thirds of purchases during major shopping trips were unplanned – and products were bought on impulse. To draw those consumers, businesses need effective signage. In a project by OSRAM Sylvania and LumaLogix, Toronto’s Yorkdale Shopping Centre, one of Canada’s largest malls, converted it’s marquee to LED (light emitting diodes) lighting. Visibility has been increased, maintenance has been reduced, and energy and cost savings have been achieved. In 2006, Yorkdale StormTight was honoured by the International Council of Shopping Centres with an International D e s i g n a n d D e ve l o p m e n t Aw a r d f o r Sustainable Design. The use of LEDs in its

10 | imagemakers

ImageMakers redesign June.indd 10

8/6/08 10:40:33 AM

signage promotes the centre's position on sound environmental practices. LED displays offer more bang for the buck than they used to and clients are requesting more LED-type signs. LEDs have the potential to achieve more than 90 per cent conversion efficiencies as a light source compared to under 50 per cent for conventional sources. A common household light bulb, for instance, is only nine per cent efficient. As LEDs convert electricity directly into light, LEDs can produce more light than heat from the energy supplied. On a global scale, this represents a huge energy savings potential. Another reason that LEDs are creating such a stir in the lighting and signage

industries is their extremely long life, which limits the previous painstaking efforts once needed to change conventional lighting behind a sign face. With no glass to break, resistance to vibration, low temperatures, digital control capability, and the possibility to program an RGB array to produce just about any colour, LEDs are surpassing other signage illumination technologies. With the flexibility of LEDs, fixtures and signage can be created in virtually any shape or size. They can be positioned along light plastic or glass walls to create the look of light sheets and they can also be intelligently controlled. One type of solid-state lighting that is currently being developed is OLEDs,

(organic light emitting diodes). Acting as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;lighting wallpaper,â&#x20AC;? the f lexible luminous sheets will bring unprecedented integration of light and signage sources with architectural interest for walls, ceilings curtains and even furniture. Some of the improvements to LEDs include the ChromaLED StormTight and Mini-StormTight products from Allanson L i g h t i n g E l e c t r i c s. T h e C h ro m a L E D Stor mTight system has a weatherproof, stainless steel body with transparent epoxy fill. The high light output provides 18 per cent more light than the original ACLWmCW2 and provides more even light distribution in channel letter applications.

LED displays offer more bang for the buck than they used to and clients are requesting more LED-type signs.

Michael Barry of Allanson remarks that, “We are the only company that has the elaborate Stor mTight system with two emitters on each module and one emitter for deeper signs.” The product is competitive with fluorescents and is ideal for hard to reach access because of its long life. “Clients are looking for reliable light at a fair price. Technology has had an important effect on LEDs with improved consistency and higher output power supplies. They are now more efficient and reliable with fail safe systems that flash when there are problems.” Along with improvements to LEDs, Allanson also manufactures flexible LED border tubing. The flexible tubing provides light with uniformity and neonlike brightness. The efficient use of LEDs, operating at 24VDC, also provides lowenergy consumption. It is highly flexible and can be bent to a minimum radius of 4 centimetres. The tubing can also be cut to any length on the cutting mark. Unlike neon lights that have to be run on very high voltage and are susceptible to breakage, Allanson’s border tubing is shockproof and emits little heat. It’s 100 per cent waterproof, easy to install and costs little to maintain. Daktronics is the world’s largest supplier of large-for mat LED display systems, including digital LED billboards, largescreen video displays, and control systems for sports and commercial venues. Having installed over 600 digital billboards in more than 140 cities, the impact of signage speaks

for itself. Ron Koerner, Product Manager at Daktronics for 17 years, has seen the industry evolve firsthand. With an increase in the use of LEDs, however, a major concern that he shares with others in the industry is the need for city planners and regional sign associations to help provide tools to write good codes. “There is no consistency in code planning and city planners are forced to be experts,” he notes. “Education is key and I encourage businesses to get involved with city planners to help keep messaging dynamic,” he adds. Together with the increased widespread use of LED lighting, ProPixel technology by Daktronics is being embraced as well. The Americana At Brand in Glendale, CA is a mixed use residential and retail development featuring a vibrant blend of shopping, dining and entertainment along with housing – all within a park-like setting. The central courtyard of the development boasts a steel-beamed spire, which is covered by the inaugural use of ProPixel' stick display. ProPixel's freeform video components can be set at specific intervals along the length of a structure to enhance the architectural lines of the structure. Each pixel connects to its own individual address and each one is programmed on the spire. The ProPixel content can also be synchronized with the water fountain located below for truly stunning displays. Designed by Elkus/Manfredi Architects in Boston, MA, the project demonstrates the product’s extreme versatility to wrap structure of any shape or size.

Not only is the innovative ProPixel technology gaining in popularity, video technology is increasing in size and capability at a fast rate. On the Las Vegas strip, on the side wall of The Palazzo Las Vegas, is a video screen that measures 23 feet high by 32 feet wide. At the front of the property, a dual-faced video marquee display stands 34 feet high and 21 feet high. The installation by Daktronics dazzles onlookers with video clips, promotional advertising a b o u t u p c o m i n g eve n t s a n d g r a p h i c s in 4.4 trillion colours. The technology, available for interior signage also, provides outstanding colour accuracy, image depth, viewing angles and brightness. With the technology behind LEDs being the best it has ever been, the availability of colour and the fact that it is now more affordable than ever, the use of LEDs in interior and exterior signage has had an enormous impact on the industry. As digital displays become more cost-friendly, and as even newer technologies hit the marketplace, such as rear-projected displays, modified LCD screen systems that can be pieced together to make a giant screen, organic LEDs and innovations in laser signage, the industry is indeed larger than light. One message remains the same, however, and that is to always buy a reliable product from a reputable supplier and have it installed by an expert source. IM

Three reasons a prospect wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy from you! New technology like LEDs and computerized signs often present exciting opportunities for firms that sell them; however, on their own, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily ensure success. By Michael Hepworth

f e at u r e

Sometimes we get so excited about our new “whiz-bang” technology and we are so utterly convinced of its benefit that it can be a bit of a shock when the prospect doesn’t buy. Before you get to that point, it can be useful to think about why people don’t buy what it is you are selling. In my book, there are only three reasons why your prospect won’t buy from you: 1. They don’t want what you are selling. 2. They can’t afford what you are selling. 3. They don’t believe you. If they don’t want what you are selling or can’t afford what you are selling, you mainly have a problem with who you are targeting. For example, I keep getting telemarketing calls from people selling burglar alarms and replacement windows. We’ve got an alarm system and my wife and I had all of our windows replaced a few years ago. We are not their target audience and every call is a waste of time and money. Perhaps your new technology is intimidating to your prospects or perhaps they just see problems with something they don’t understand. Sometimes new technology is sexy, but it can also be pricey. Is this the reason your prospects are not buying? If people are not buying because of poor targeting, then one of your first steps is to understand who the ideal prospects are for this technology and diligently focus all of your efforts on selling only to them. Few businesses are clear about who their target prospects should be and as a consequence waste time, money and effort chasing inappropriate prospects. By definition, Ideal Prospects have the need for what you sell and the means to pay for it. So if you know who they are and where to find them, life suddenly gets much easier. However, if your prospects don’t believe you, you have a different challenge; you have to focus on establishing better credibility.

Here are 9 actions you can take right away to establish credibility with your prospects and ensure they buy from you:

testimonial, generally the greater impact it will have when your prospect sees or hears it.

1. Educate them on how to buy your product or service. No matter how frequently a customer buys your product or service, you have more experience and knowledge than they do on this subject. You sell what you sell all day, every day, gaining insights and experience as you go. Prospects and clients don’t have this advantage and the less frequently they purchase the more they need help in making correct buying decisions. Help them understand what their buying criteria should be and teach them how to buy. New technology presents the perfect opportunity to do this. Educate your prospects and they’ll be far more likely to buy.

6. Establish yourself as an authority Writing articles on your specialty and speaking at trade shows and association meetings are great ways to build much needed credibility. Now might be the time to write the book or article you’ve always wanted to write.

2. Tell the truth and be sincere. If you always tell your prospects the truth, even when it is to your detriment, trust will grow and so will your business. While truth and sincerity are closely allied, they are different. Being sincere is about being believable and presenting the facts in a way that prospects understand. 3. Use specifics. Precise numbers and details are far more believable than generalities. For example, “27 per cent lower cost than the old technology” is more believable than “lower price.” 4. Reverse the risk. Don’t expect your new prospects to assume the risk, especially if you are not a household name or your technology is unproven. Offer a guarantee and shoulder the risk yourself. The more generous and the fewer conditions, the better. 5. Provide testimonials. Few people like to be the first to use a product or service. Testimonials provide social proof that others have used your services and have had good results. The better known the person giving the

7. Support your sales with editorial and articles. Public Relations is very important in building your credibility. People generally believe more of what they see and hear in the media than what you tell them in person 8. Tell prospects why. If you are offering a discount or a special deal, don’t just give it, but give a reason for it. Tell them you are overstocked; tell them it’s a shameless bribe to get them to try this new technology. It doesn’t matter what the reason is, but make sure you give one. Also give reasons for why your product is premium priced if it falls into that category. 9. Point out a non-fatal flaw in your product. Sometimes you can find a flaw in your product which justifies your giving a discount but one that you can use to your benefit in promotions. Sleep Country Canada has a special annual sale giving a discount on mismatched box-springs and mattresses. If you point out a flaw like this you can justify your discount or offer and you also build trust as a reputable supplier.

safety greatness As governments become ever more vigilant and attentive to the cause of occupational health and safety, so must companies increase their investment in this cause. The terms ‘safety culture’ and ‘management commitment’ have been discussed endlessly but where does action finally replace lip service or the rubber hit the road? By Carola Hicks

Safety greatness is an achievable goal when all parties (employers, managers, supervisors and workers) accept their respective responsibilities to the cause. In an article researched for this discussion, the term “felt leadership” was used. The definition given was as follows: “felt leadership is respect through action for the well-being of people.” It would be easy for the reader to translate “leadership” into employer, manager, supervisor, boss, etc., but the truth is that every worker needs to take a leadership role and exercise his or her responsibility in maintaining a safe and healthy work environment. The only leadership role a manager should take is to make it clear to all that they are the leaders or masters of their own health and safety destiny. Enter the Internal Responsibility System or IRS. The Occupational Health and Safety Act governs health and safety in the workplace and sets out legal duties and responsibilities for employers, supervisors and workers to follow. The duties may not be complicated, but if they are not followed, injuries, illness or even the death of a worker can result. Put briefly, the IRS is a system in which everyone in the workplace has a role to play and a duty to actively ensure they and their co-workers are safe. Every worker who sees a health and safety hazard in the workplace has a duty to report the situation to management. Once any hazard has been identified, the employer and supervisor have a duty to look at the problem and eliminate any hazards that might injure workers. The legal duties and responsibilities of employers, supervisors and workers overlap and complement each other. In felt leadership, ethical and moral responsibilities will do the same.

safety When this idea of reciprocal responsibility is embraced, then felt leadership takes the burden off any one person and empowers each individual to be more vigilant and proactive toward a safer work environment, without fear of managerial reprisal. The benefits to an organization come through in many ways. Commitment to health and safety is easily observable throughout all levels of an organization because it involves all employees. Personal commitment by management makes a positive impression on workers with the result that workers affirm their commitment to the cause of health and safety. Win-win! Underlying this “felt leadership” is the importance of open and effective communication and, underlying that, there must be a trust factor. If everyone is equally responsible under the IRS, then everyone must feel comfortable enough to be able to voice concerns and opinions. To achieve the desired safety attitudes

and results, all leaders must believe that safety is as important as any other business parameter such as cost, quality and productivity. There needs to be a transparency to the organization with a relentless emphasis on occupational health and safety. Trainers become trainees and vice versa to the benefit of everyone. Maintaining and behaving with a self-safety focus affirms safety as a core value to any outside observers as well as co-workers, new employees or managers. Complacency is a known cause of workplace accidents, injuries and deaths. There is no place for any amount of this disease in a workplace (DISEASE: syndrome, illness, sickness, bug). It is extremely important, for every individual in a company, to place continuous emphasis and clarity around safety expectations in order to prevent complacency. The road to Safety Greatness has many bumps and turns, which unlike real-life roads, can be modified, altered, changed and developed to reach the safety destination. Inspiration, motivation, commitment, agreement, compliance, vision, communication and standards are all aspects of Safety Greatness that all great leaders (read: everyone in the workplace) want. Safety Greatness identifies safety as a core business value that is integral to the survival of any organization. When employees realize this they take ownership of their own accountability and how it impacts their personal physical and financial well-being. The consequence? They become actively involved in building and supporting Safety Greatness in their workplaces. IM

Sign Association of Canada launches discounted group home and auto insurance program for SAC members

Just when it seems that all of your costs are on the rise, finally some relief ! “Fuel costs on the rise.” “Hydro costs up.” “New tax announcement.” It seems that these days, the harder you work to earn a few more dollars, there is always something eroding the bottom line. Finally, a cost saving announcement. As all of you are probably aware, “Western Imagemakers ’08 Trade Show” was held this past June 11 to 13 in scenic Abbotsford, B.C. In conjunction with We s t e r n I m a g e m a k e r s ’ 0 8 , t h e S i g n Association of Canada held their Board of Directors meeting where, among other items, they discussed and voted on a proposed Group Home and Auto Insurance Program. This proposed program was put forward by Wiesner Insurance, the providers of the current and successful Commercial (Business) Insurance program for the Sign Association of Canada. Bob Bronk, Executive Director of the SAC. reported that this proposal was welcomed by the Board of Directors and the proposal was approved. This association benefit is available immediately to all SAC members and their employees. In addition to excellent “group insurance pricing” there are many coverage enhancements above and beyond what is typically available with a conventional home and automobile insurance policy. The group plan, underwritten by Novex Group Insurance, and available exclusively through Wiesner Insurance, is available nation wide and provides a 24/7 claims service guarantee. We contacted Jason Wiesner, President of Wiesner Insurance, for more details on this new benefit to SAC members. “Wiesner I n s u r a n c e h a s b e e n s u p p o r t i n g, a n d working along with, the Sign Association

of Canada and the sign industry in general for over 5 years now. We educate our staff on the ongoing developments of the sign industry in order to stay on top of the needs of the association members. By doing this, we have been able to fine tune our very successful commercial insurance product for business owners and see this personal insurance program as the next step in offering our exceptional service and pricing for Home and Automobile Insurance that extends to the employees of SAC members as well. In many cases, the savings realized by participating in this program can actually exceed the cost of SAC membership, further reinforcing the point that if you operate in the sign industry, the decision to join the SAC is a no brainer.” “A personal group insurance program can become a very powerful thing,” Jason adds, “As the program grows and more and more members take advantage of this benefit, the level of the discount afforded by t h e i n s u re r c a n b e i n c re a s e d . B y supporting this program, members in fact are supporting their association.” As with every year, you will see Wiesner Insurance at the SAC ACE show to be held at the Toronto Congress Centre, September 26 and 27. Take an opportunity to stop by their booth and ask about some of the program enhancements and how they might benefit you. If you are unable to attend, you can obtain a no obligation quote by calling Wiesner Insurance directly at 1(800) 408-2877 or visit www.wiesnerinsurance. com in the province of Ontario. Outside of Ontario, SAC members and employees can call 1(888)776-6839. IM

Industry News Products ISA The International Sign Association (ISA) announced today it has lowered the registration fee for its comprehensive line of Internet-based Webinars. Beginning in June, the cost to participate in any of the broad slate of online training programs is just $29 for ISA members and $39 for nonmembers (down from $129 and $199, respectively). The International Sign Association is a 2,600 member organization comprised of manufacturers, users and suppliers of on-premise signs and sign products from all 50 U.S. states and an additional 54 countries. ISA exists to support, promote and improve the sign industry, which sustains the nation’s retail industry. “The importance of having well-trained employees remains critical to the success of any organization, and is even more important in a slow economy,” said ISA’s Educational and Technical Initiatives Vice President Rich Gottwald. “By reducing the price to participate in our Webinars, we hope to allow more of our members, as well as nonmembers from throughout the industry, to tap into the power and rewards of Internet-based training for a fraction of the traditional cost.” ISA’s information-packed, interactive Webinars offer participants a low-cost, high-value learning opportunity on a wide array of relevant, sign and small business specific subjects. Anywhere participants have an Internet connection and a phone, they can get practical training from leading subject matter experts and network with their industry peers in a virtual environment. Webinars take place in real time via the Internet and telephone. These online sessions – either 60 or 90 minutes – offer many interactive and collaborative features, while saving participants the time and money it takes to travel away from the office while taking advantage of educational opportunities. Multiple participants can gather around a single computer screen to participate concurrently, and for one low price. Upcoming topics include:

• Internet Marketing: Making it Work for Your Business • New Business Owners: Top Ten Things You Want to Know • Lean Management Overview • Human Resources: Hiring the Right Person • Government Relations: Model Sign Codes • Government Relations: Legal Rights of Signs For a complete schedule of Webinars or to register to participate, visit the ISA Web site at www.signs.org or contact education@signs.org. ilumisys, Inc. ilumisys, Inc. has launched the first product in a series of patented light emitting diode (LED) tubes, designed to directly replace standard T-8 and T-12 fluorescent tubes. The ilumisys MK1 product uses high brightness LEDs to provide efficient and effective light, and is available in colour temperatures ranging from 3500° K to 5000° K, with a variety of optical diffusion options. High brightness LEDs are used in conjunction with well engineered optics, c i rc u i t r y, a n d t h e r m a l m a n a g e m e n t to provide maximum light output with minimum power consumption. Patented circuitry enables the product to operate in existing fluorescent fixtures, without modifications to the fixtures or ballasts, allowing users to simply remove an existing fluorescent tube and drop in the ilumisys MK1 product. ilumisys LED direct replacements also run directly from 110 VAC or other building line currents as specified. "This product is the ideal solution to initiate a movement from standard fluorescent lighting to environmentally friendly solid-state lighting," said Dave S i m o n , p re s i d e n t o f i l u m i s y s . " T h e ilumisys MK1 is an easy one-for-one replacement product. It can be used in the billions of existing installed fluorescent fixtures, across a variety of industries, helping businesses easily transition their operations to SSL without incurring costly

infrastructure changes." This next generation solid state lighting offers an easy transition from traditional fluorescent lighting, while taking full advantage of attributes of light emitting diodes including long life, temperature robustness, vibration tolerance and energy efficiency. In addition to providing an energyefficient alternative, unlike the fluorescent tubes they replace, the ilumisys MK1 tubes are mercury-free. The 500 to 600 million fluorescent tubes discarded annually in the United States introduce an estimated two to four tons of mercury to the environment, despite industry and government efforts to limit mercury content and encourage recycling. For more information, see the Web site at www.ilumisys.com. ilumisys, Inc. ilumisys, Inc. has unveiled a new line of five contemporary LED lighting fixtures that exploit the unique characteristics of solid state lighting. Four of the Designer Series luminaire creations are pendant fixtures; the other is a table lamp. With light outputs ranging from 600-1000 lumens (roughly equivalent to 60-100 watt tungsten filament bulbs), the luminaires consume only 10 to 18 watts of electricity. They are powered by LEDs from Nichia Corporation, have colour temperatures of 4200°K (neutral white) and CRI indexes above 90, while consuming only 10-18 watts of electricity. The luminaires feature interesting combinations of materials and finishes – metals, acrylic and glass – using designs made possible by LEDs to achieve fascinating interplays of light, contrast and sensations of graceful energy. ilumisys takes an interdisciplinary team approach to product development, bringing solid-state engineers and product designers under one roof. An integration of left-brain and right-brain capabilities melds dispassionate technology and emotive design principles.

Industry News an unparalleled effort to move LED technology out of strictly technological or 'archetainment' implementations and toward a truly architectural fine-design category," says Dave Simon, President of ilumisys. The unique characteristics of LEDs a s p o i n t l i g h t s o u rc e s d ro v e t h e forms of these fixtures. "For many years, luminaire design and thinking have usually revolved around how to attractively wrap metal around a bulb or tube. We did what can't be done with traditional light bulbs, from both design and technology viewpoints," says James Trumble, Altair's studio lead for product design Magic Lite Ltd. The new LED Surface Star by Magic Lite Ltd. is an extremely versatile, compact LED fixture suitable for a large variety of applications. M a d e o f c a s t a l u m i n u m , L E D Surface Star is extremely robust and is completely sealed so it can be used indoors or outdoors. At just 1.2 watts, each fixture is stingy on power and strong on light emission. They are powerful enough as a light source for shelf or counter lighting or as a point source for building outlines. Each fixture comes with molded quick connectors for easy installation and the various lengths of joiner cables allow you to space the fixtures exactly where you want them. LED Surface Star is available in four great finishes. Choose from aluminum, black, white or bronze with a choice of LED colour of white (3800°K), blue, green, amber or red. Benefits include: • Long life – 60,000 hours white, blue and green, 100,000 hours amber and red • Low power consumption – only 1.2 watts per fixture • Safe 12 volt, class 2 power supply • cUL listed for indoor or outdoor use • Small compact size 39 mm diameter and 28.4 mm height
