SmartSign Teams Up With the Independent Retailer Conference 

New York, New York – December 15, 2013— New York based SmartSign announced a partnership with Retail Minded for the Independent Retailer Conference in New York City, taking place April 14, 2014. While SmartSign has always been a leader in safety and security, this will be the company’s first time committing its support to the independent retail community. An independent e-commerce sign retailer, SmartSign brings fifteen years of experience and expertise to Retail Minded’s conference.

“Signage is such an important part of any retailer’s store and overall brand communication, and we’re thrilled to welcome SmartSign to our 2014 Independent Retailer Conference, and help attendees better understand the value of signage to their unique stores.” said Nicole Reyhle, founder and publisher of Retail Minded. “Additionally, we’re big fans of SmartSign’s broad range of options for both service and product-based retailers, and look forward to using some of their signage options at the Independent Retailer Conference.”

The conference will be held on April 14, 2014 at New York City’s Scholastic Auditorium, where attendees will be introduced to new retail uses of signage and learn innovative tactics to personalize every aspect of their customer experience.  Additionally, the conference will introduce attendees to other retail supporters and sponsors of this one day, annual event, including SnapRetail and Vend POS. Topics to be addressed in both keynote, panel and mini presentations include how to close a sale based on common customer scenarios, tips on maximizing in-store events, why local community involvement is valuable to your business, how store signage can help your business and ways to maximize your Pinterest experience to increase store visibility and sales.

Blair Brewster, CEO of SmartSign, said, “As an e-commerce company, we know how important branding and marketing can be to small businesses. We’re excited to lend our knowledge of signage and e-commerce to the attendees of The Independent Retailer conference.”
