Background Introduction:

WeNeedSigns.com was first introduced in 2008.  It began the novel idea of an online sign store with full-blown online designing and ordering features.  Shoppers choose their template first, then create with their own design with an online drawing board.

Over the same period of time, DCS worked on a parallel project for the sign vendor of the Alain Pinel Real Estate company.  Designed for 1500+ agents from 30+ offices,  it used a less flexible online sign ordering system.  Still, it delivered what our client expected in terms of productivity and profitability.

By early June 2010, the DCS team started developing the new version of WeNeedSigns.com.  Our goal: to leverage the existing assets and to bring in higher quality user experience in an Online Custom Sign Order system.

It’s quite straight forward. That is the strategy to help all of us become more competitive in this global economic climate.

A flash-based, Actionscrip coded, online drawing board is the canvas-in-a-browser for the site user, of any level, to design their own signs and place an order in streamlined process. The online drawing board allows you to add text, clipart, and pictures to your sign.

The User Manual, on YouTube, was located at the side-bar of the online store. It’s re-posted on YouTube for the purpose of free, but powerful, online marketing. We try to leverage a million eyeballs on YouTube. YouTube allows searching by both “keywords” and “tags”, which added when we uploaded the video.
