I Saw The Sign

What does the front of your business say about your company?

When someone walks up to your building, can they clearly read your information? Does your storefront look professional, updated, and cared for?

Your signage is often the very first impression people have of your business — small upgrades can make a much bigger impact than people realize, and they’re often more affordable than expected.

Good branding starts before the customer even walks inside!

Sometimes the cleanest designs make the biggest statement.

Simple layouts, crisp lines, and professional installation can completely transform a trailer without overdoing it, and this one turned out sharp.

Bringing our customers vision to LIFE! It’s May, which means it’s time for Flowers 🌺. Go check out Phocas Gardens in Sac City!!

My heart is full. ❤️

I have desired to incorporate this quote in the greenhouse for years - actually, since we opened, and today it happened.

St. Therese’s message holds true - not only for the flowers that grow in all shapes, sizes, and colors - each with their own unique purpose and beauty they bring to the garden - but also for the beauty each and every human being brings to this world. ❤️

Thank you for making this project come to completion with such ease and perfection. Grateful for small, local businesses who are amazing. I hope they can help you with your dream project too.

Happy May Day All.
Remember you are lovely. ❤️

We’ve have made an exciting change to make ordering apparel even easier!

Moving forward, we’ll be running weekly production instead of set production dates for all of our online stores.

If you place your order by Sunday night, it will go into that week’s production run. Most orders will be ready within 5-10 business days, and we’ll send you an email as soon as it’s finished.

A simpler, more consistent process — so you always know what to expect.

When you go with ISTS, your apparel is something you just don’t have to worry about.

This wall gets us every time.

Photos of our team — moments from everyday work, events, and memories that make us smile as we head into our morning meetings.

Signage isn’t always about marketing to customers.
Sometimes it’s about building a space your team wants to be part of.

Simple pieces like foam board prints can:
• Reinforce culture
• Celebrate your team
• Create connection
• Set the tone for your space

Whether it’s coffee mornings, big milestones, or representing your brand together — those moments matter.

We don’t just make signs. We help create environments.

One of the biggest advantages of acrylic signage?

It doesn’t have to stay the same.

With this style of sign, the structure stays in place — and the printed insert can be easily swapped out whenever you want to refresh your space.

New season.
New promotion.
Updated messaging.

After the initial investment, you’re simply updating the print — not replacing the entire sign.

It’s a simple way to keep your business looking fresh without starting from scratch every time.

Smart branding isn’t about more pieces — it’s about the right pieces.

Window Perf vs. Cut Vinyl — what’s the difference?

We get this question a lot when it comes to storefront windows, and the right choice really depends on your goals.

Window Perf:
• Full coverage design
• You can see out, but people can’t see in as easily
• Great for privacy + large graphics
• Acts like a full window advertisement

Cut Vinyl:
• Clean, simple lettering or logos
• No background — just the design
• Very crisp and professional look
• Best for hours, logos, and minimal messaging

Both are great options — it just depends on whether you want visibility, privacy, or simplicity. And no matter which direction you go, installation matters just as much as the material.

That’s why we invest in training and becoming 3M Certified Installers — to make sure your windows look right and perform the way they should.

Not sure which is right for your space? We’re happy to help you think it through.

Friday debate 👇

What’s the one piece of team gear you actually wear the most?

💜Hoodie
🩵 T-shirt
🩷Hat
💛Tank
💚1/4 Zip

(We all have a favorite 😄)

At ISTS, we love making sure there’s something for everyone — so every fan has a piece they actually love wearing.

This recent project included 1/4 zips, backpacks, hats, and bag tags — all designed to work together as a cohesive brand package. When apparel and promotional items are aligned, it elevates how a brand is seen — whether it’s in the office, on the road, or at events.

Smart branding isn’t about more pieces — it’s about the right pieces!
